Be on the lookout for:

  • Limited hot water capacity: If your water heater isn’t producing hot water or isn’t as hot as you want it to be, the heating element or thermostat might be the problem.
  • Strange noises: If your water heater is making loud banging, popping, or rumbling noises, it might have sediment buildup in the tank.
  • Leaking: If you see leaks around your water heater, fix them immediately to avoid further water damage.
  • Rusty water: Black specks or rusty water from hot water taps could mean corrosion inside the tank.
  • Fluctuating temperatures: If your water temperature changes, the thermostat or heating element might be faulty.

Frequently Asked Questions About Water Heaters

Why does it take so long for my hot water to heat up?

There are several reasons your hot water may take longer than desired to heat up:

  • You need water heater maintenance.
  • You have a damaged unit that needs repair.
  • Your water heater is a significant distance from the tap.
  • There are freezing temperatures outside.
  • There are flow restrictors within your appliances.

Whatever the root cause, our local plumbers can diagnose the problem and provide fast, affordable solutions.

Do water heaters require regular maintenance?

Yes, water heater maintenance is critical to keeping your system working effectively and at peak efficiency. Whether you have a tank-style water heater or tankless, each needs regular attention. One of the most important maintenance items for a tank water heater is to regularly drain the tank to reduce sediment buildup (which can lead to many other issues). For tankless water heaters, you’ll need to regularly clean the filter to keep things running smoothly. Len The Plumber can provide comprehensive water heater maintenance that will extend your water heater’s service life and alert you to any minor issues before they get larger and more expensive.

Why is my water heater leaking?

A leaky water heater is certainly a sign that something is wrong with your system. It could mean you have a crack in your storage tank and need a water heater replacement, or it could be a warning that there’s too much pressure in your tank. Our local experts will quickly diagnose the cause and provide solutions based on the underlying problem – guaranteed.

What’s the difference between tank-style and tankless water heaters?

Tankless water heaters are much more energy-efficient, as they heat your water on demand and will provide the exact amount of hot water you need when you need it. While they tend to have a higher initial cost than tank style, they have a longer projected service life, will inevitably save you money on energy bills, and require little maintenance.

Tank-style water heaters are common in Philadelphia and Delaware Valley homes. They continuously heat and store water. These storage water heaters tend to lack energy efficiency because they have to keep refilling and heating water in large batches.

How long do water heaters last?

Storage or tank-style water heaters last approximately 10 to 15 years, while more modern and energy-efficient tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years. Regardless of the system you use, regular water heater maintenance is a crucial component in prolonging the service life of your water heater.
