Your hot water heater makes your everyday living experience infinitely more comfortable. Imagine what it would be like to spend a day without hot water. That means no long, steamy showers, no hot water for your laundry, and no hot water to wash your dishes with. Cold water is great for certain activities, but chances are that you rely on hot water more often. What happens if your supply of hot water simply disappears one day?
If you think that your hot water heater might be on the fritz, here are a few things you need to check for and do to help your current situation:
Understanding the Need for Repair
There are a few common reasons why homeowners find that their hot water heater needs to be repaired. First and foremost, the age of the unit plays a major role in whether it needs to be repaired or replaced. Most appliances, including your hot water heater, only have a lifespan of ten to fifteen years. If your unit has made it to this ripe old age, you might need to consider replacing it instead of repairing it.
The majority of hot water heaters are constructed from steel and they may become rusty or corroded over time. This is particularly common near inlet or outlet connections or near the pressure relief valve. You may also notice it directly in water that comes from the tap.
Alternatively, your unit might be leaking. This is usually a symptom of an internal issue that needs to be repaired.
