This could be due to sediment buildup in the tank, a malfunctioning thermostat, or an undersized water heater. Summer is a great time to have your tank flushed and components inspected by our team to ensure your system is working efficiently!
While some noise is normal, loud banging, popping, or rumbling sounds could indicate sediment buildup or a failing heating element. The The Birmingham-Anniston Region summer season is the perfect time to schedule maintenance before the cooler months arrive, so call (205) 649-5432 to schedule now!
A leaking water heater could be due to a damaged valve, loose connections, or even tank corrosion. Promptly addressing any leaks during the warmer months can help you avoid significant water damage.
To boost your tank’s efficiency, lower the thermostat to 120°F (sometimes called a “vacation” setting) when you’re away. Additionally, regularly flushing your tank and insulating its pipes can also help save energy.
While external heat generally won’t harm your water heater, higher water temperatures may lead to stress on parts like the pressure relief valve. Regular inspections and tune-ups with the Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical professionals can help to avoid this and keep your tank functioning properly!
If your water heater is experiencing any of the following issues, call Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical for Expert Water Heater Repair Services as soon as possible to avoid permanent damage:
One of the biggest giveaways that your water heater is experiencing issues in need of professional repair from Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical is if the temperature of the water from your faucets and appliances is fluctuating. When sediment and mineral deposits build up in a water heater tank, this can lead to your appliances and plumbing not getting the appropriate amount of hot water—if any at all! Whether your hot water is not sustaining the length you need it to or you are not getting any hot water at all, you will need to contact Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical right away.
Mineral deposits and sediment buildup can also affect the water pressure from your faucets and plumbing. If you notice the water pressure is weak when you turn on your hot water specifically, you will need to call Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical for Expert Water Heater Repair Services as soon as possible.
Any time that your water heater begins leaking, particularly hot water, you will need to contact Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical immediately. Leaking hot water is a clear indication that there is something failing or clogged within your hot water heater tank.
A buildup of minerals and sediment in your water heater can result in discolored or cloudy water from your tap. Water that is either cloudy or rust colored is a red flag for professional repair service. Additionally, if the water has a distinct smell to it, this is also likely due to a buildup of sediment in the tank. If your hot water is cloudy and smelling funny, call Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical right away to avoid potential negative health effects!
There are a number of reasons that could cause your water heater to suddenly start making loud, unfamiliar noises that you’ve never heard it make before, including sediment buildup. If your water heater has suddenly started making odd noises that you do not recognize, you are likely in need of Expert Water Heater Repair Services from Dunn’s HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical.
Most water heater issues are all rooted in mineral deposits and sediment buildup.
