5 Easy Signs that You Need Water Heater Repair
In many instances, you don’t need to be an expert plumber to determine whether or not hot water heater service is needed. Some of the most easily identifiable symptoms include:
- WATER LEAKS: A water leak is a common precursor to a water heater emergency. They generally start small, around valves at the top of your unit, or at the base, and in no time they can leak out gallons of water, resulting in water damage and in some instances even mold growth.
- HIGH ENERGY BILLS: If you’re like most homeowners, you have a tight grip on what you pay monthly for utilities. This is why it’s also easy to notice when something is out of the ordinary. If you see spikes in your water consumption, and you haven’t been doing anything out of the ordinary, chances are your water heater is to blame.
- LITTLE TO NO HOT WATER: If you have a traditional tanked water heater in your home, then your supply of hot water is limited to the capacity of the tank. If, however, you find that you’re running out of hot water often, there may be an issue with the temperature controls inside your unit.
- LOW WATER PRESSURE: Just as bad as running out of hot water, is not getting the amount of water pressure you want. While this can be attributed to plenty of plumbing issues, like clogged pipes, if the situation only happens when you try using hot water, then your water heater may be the source of the problem.
- RUST: Because your water heater is constantly in contact with water, and it’s made of metal, rust is a real problem that can occur over time. The last thing you want is for rust colored water to come pouring out of your fixtures, or for your tank to completely rust out and crack open, which is why at the first sign of rust you should always call our plumbers.
4 Signs You Need Clogged Drain Repair
While a slow sink is an obvious indication you have a clogged drain, there are other, more subtle symptoms you should also be on the lookout for. Four of them include:
- FOUL SMELLS: You rely on your drains to remove waste from your home. Anytime residue gets stuck in your plumbing, it can easily “ripen,” eventually leading to seriously foul odors coming from your pipes. This is especially true for drains that deal with food waste.
- LOW WATER PRESSURE: The plumbing system in your home relies on pressure to move water from one place to another. Anytime there are blockages in those lines, you can quickly find yourself with low water pressure in your kitchen, bathroom, or any other fixture around your home.
- WATER LEAKS: If water can’t find it’s way away from your drains, it will eventually escape from another place. Whether that’s around faucets, under sinks, or even around your toilet, water leaks could indicate there is a clog causing the backflow.
- CONSISTENT CLOGS: This one is especially true for the DIY homeowner, that may not get to the actual source of a clog. If you’re dealing with clogs daily, or in multiple fixtures at the same time, you may have a more serious clog, deeper in your piping.
