Signs Your Water Heater Needs Attention
Water heaters typically provide reliable service for years, but they do show warning signs when problems develop or replacement becomes necessary. Recognizing these indicators helps you address issues before complete failure leaves you without hot water.
Signs of age or malfunction may include:
- Inconsistent Water Temperature – When hot water runs out quickly, or temperature fluctuates during use, your water heater may be undersized, failing, or suffering from sediment buildup.
- Discolored or Rusty Water – Brown or rust-colored hot water often indicates corrosion inside the tank or a deteriorating anode rod that requires replacement.
- Strange Noises – Popping, rumbling, or banging sounds typically result from sediment buildup on the tank bottom, reducing efficiency and potentially damaging the unit.
- Visible Leaks – Water around the base of the heater or from connections indicates seal failure, corrosion, or valve problems requiring immediate attention.
- Age of Unit – Most tank water heaters last 8-12 years. As your unit approaches or exceeds this range, proactive replacement prevents unexpected failures.
