Causes of Water Heater Malfunctions

When it comes to maintaining the comfort and functionality of your home, understanding what can go wrong with your water heater is as important as knowing who to call for repairs.

Here are some common causes of hot water heater malfunctions:

• Sediment buildup. Minerals from the water may accumulate at the tank bottom which leads to reduced efficiency, overheating, and system failure.
• Corrosion. Tank corrosion can cause leaks, resulting in the need to replace your water heater completely.
• Thermostat issues. A faulty thermostat can cause water temperature to fluctuate wildly or sit too hot or too cold with no control. 
• Improper maintenance. Neglecting maintenance can lead to reduced efficiency and early system breakdown.
• Gas supply problems. For gas water heaters, issues like faulty gas valves or pilot light problems can disrupt the heater's functionality.
• High water pressure. Too much pressure can damage your water heater tank and plumbing. 

Types of Water Heaters We Fix

We pride ourselves on repairing a wide range of water heaters. Our skilled technicians ensure we know to give an efficient solution regardless of your model or concern. 

Here are the common types of water heaters we fix:

• Traditional storage water heaters. These are the most common models that store water in an insulated tank. 
• Tankless water heaters. These units heat water directly without the use of a storage tank. When a hot water tap is turned on, a gas burner heats cold water from a pipe.
• Heat pump water heaters (hybrid). These systems use less energy than standard electric heaters since they transfer heat utilizing electricity. 
• Condensing water heaters. These water heaters use a tank like conventional ones but capture hot exhaust gasses from the flue to heat the water.

At Lion's Plumbing and Heating, we bring an in-depth understanding of these various water heater types and their specific repair needs. We're equipped to handle your concerns with proficiency and care. Our transparent and honest recommendations show our commitment to long-term client relationships. We bring the same care to every job, from minor repairs to major overhauls.
