Cherry Hill Water Heater Repair

Water heaters are like any other appliance in your home in that they could break and stop working properly. When that happens, you don’t necessarily need to replace the unit entirely, but might be able to get it working again with a simple repair instead. A repair can be significantly more affordable than a replacement, and likewise could help keep your water heater in service for several additional years once the job is complete as well. 

At Wolfschmidt Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we service all makes and models of water heaters, and we use genuine parts and materials to get yours up and working again. From the easiest and simplest repairs to the most intricate fixes, you can count on us for excellence in both results and in customer care.

Common Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repairs

Even the most reliable water heater will start to fail after a while, and its important to pay attention to the warning signs so you can call in a plumber as soon as possible to fix the issue before it becomes a massive and expensive problem. 

Some of the most common issues you may run into include:

• Issues with water temperature: The first thing to look for if your home's water is consistently too cold or too hot is to check the thermostat. Adjust the settings and double check to make sure it's getting power. If the water still isn't getting hot enough, there's a chance that your water heater is too small for your home.
• Rust-colored water: This is often the sign that your tanks inner lining is corroding. This needs to be handled by a professional, and may require replacement.
• Your water heater is leaking water: There are a range of causes of leaking water heaters, including loose bolts, a stuck valve, a faulty temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve, and more. Check for loose connections first if you're comfortable with working on the unit yourself, or call in a professional for a full diagnosis.
• Strange noises coming from the tank: This is usually caused by sediment build up, and can be fixed by flushing the water heater. If the problem persists or if the sediment buildup is too significant, you may need to replace the unit.
• Strange smelling water: This can be a sign that there is bacteria in the tank, and is most common in homes that use well water. Flushing the tank can help, but there's a good chance you'll want to replace the anode rod to prevent the issue from coming back.
