Ordinary Types of Water Heater Issues


Water Heater is Generating a Low Supply of Warm Water

This may be a simple thermostat issue. If you’re experiencing a low supply of warm water, try turning up your gas or electric hot water heater a few degrees. Turning up the temperature will help you and your family use less hot water as you shower or bathe, leaving more hot water to go around. We offer water heater installation solutions in Wheaton, Aurora, Downers Grove, Elmhurst, Glen Ellyn, Naperville, and other locations in Illinois. Our staff of local plumbers will perform an inspection of your water heater to detect and resolve the issue. Schedule your water heater maintenance with us today to ensure longevity and peak performance.


No Hot Water is Being Produced

Depending on what kind of hot water heater you own, gas or electric, you could have one of two issues. For gas hot water heaters, a lack of hot water is typically due to a blown-out pilot light. This can be caused by a faulty thermocouple or pilot control valve. A broken heating element is usually the culprit for electric water heaters. The technicians at Stephens Plumbing & Heating Inc offer water heater repair and installation services for hot water heaters to help extend the life of your unit. If the gas or electric water heater in your home or commercial space is not producing hot water, we recommend scheduling a meeting with our technicians. We offer dependable and efficient solutions in Downers Grove, Illinois, and a wide variety of other areas.


Strange Odors

If your hot water heater begins to give off an odd smell, this can be solved by changing the anode rod in your water heater. If you are still experiencing an odor after changing the anode rod, it may be time to call an electric or gas hot water heater repair and maintenance service.


Weird Noises

Is your hot water heater noisy or making more noise than usual? It may be due to sediment buildup in the tank. When sediment builds up in the water tank, the heating element begins burning off this sediment, causing the noise. If you notice an odd noise in your hot water heater, our plumbing specialists recommend draining the water tank to remove the sediment. To avoid buildup, we recommend draining your gas or electric water heater tank once a year.


Water Leaks

If you notice water leaking from your water heater tank, contact a water heater repair service right away. Even a slow, hot water heater leak can quickly turn into a flood, draining your entire water tank and causing damage to flooring, drywall, and molding.


Our licensed plumbers in Aurora, IL, will perform water heater repair and troubleshooting measures to help you avoid what could be a costly water heater installation project.

Signs You Need a New Water Heater

Not sure if your water heater is in need of replacement? Here are a few signs it may be time to book a hot water heater installation appointment with Stephens Plumbing & Heating Inc.


Rusty Water

Rusty water can be a sign of internal corrosion, the first sign that your water heater is headed for a leak. Once a water heater has begun to break down and rust, we recommend contacting a plumbing specialist to book a water heater installation visit.


Banging and Rumbling Noises

If you’ve drained your water heater and still hear banging or rumbling noises coming from it, this may mean too much sediment has built up and hardened, causing your water heater to lose efficiency. This buildup, over time, can cause cracking and water heater leaks, so it is best to call a licensed plumber to replace your system when the sediment buildup becomes severe.


Hot Water Heater Tank Leak

A leak is a sure sign that a hot water heater needs replacing. A leaking water heater cannot be repaired. Schedule a water heater installation service appointment with Stephens Plumbing & Heating Inc as soon as possible to avoid flooding and damage to flooring, walls, and other valuables.
