Common Hot Water Heater Problems We Address

There are many different reasons you might need water heater service in Vancouver, but some water heater complications are more common than others. Here are a few frequent problems that arise with both tank-style and tankless water heaters:

Insufficient Hot Water

Insufficient hot water can occur due to a faulty thermostat, heating element problem, or other common causes that affect your hot water supply. Our certified technicians can make the necessary repairs or install a replacement unit. We carry parts and equipment from popular tank-style and tankless brands, ensuring consistent quality and seamless operation.

Leaking Hot Water Tanks

Tank water heaters are powerful, but they have their drawbacks, and one of their biggest disadvantages is the possibility of a hot water tank leak. Both natural gas and electric hot water tanks eventually get worn out over time, developing weak spots and connection problems. Due to the extensive repair cost often involved with water damage, it's critical to act quickly if you suspect a hot water tank leak. If you notice water pooling near the tank or hear dripping sounds when the unit isn't running, call our leak repair technicians to get your water heater fixed ASAP.

Strange Noises

Do you hear banging, hissing, or other unusual sounds coming from your old unit? We effectively deal with noises caused by sediment buildup, problems with pressure valves, and other internal issues within hot water tanks. We provide same-day repairs or installation whenever possible, so don't hesitate to reach out to us to book service.

Rust-Colored Water

Rusty water is typically caused by corrosion inside hot water tanks. We may be able to repair your hot water tank to eliminate issues with rusty water. However, in many cases, hot water tank replacement is a more effective solution since repeated tank repairs make your unit less energy-efficient and more likely to leak in the future. We can help you select the right hot water tank and install it to perfection in your Vancouver home — or if you’re tired of rusty water, we can install a new tankless water heater so you never have to worry about tank troubles again!

Pilot Light Issues

Does your traditional or tankless water heater utilize a pilot light? If the pilot light on your gas water heater keeps going out, there may be an ignition problem within the unit. Our courteous plumbing service technicians can rectify pilot light problems, ensuring our customers' gas water heaters remain effective and energy-efficient.

Heating Element Concerns

While electric water heaters don't use pilot lights, there are other issues that can go wrong with your electric tank-style or tankless water heater, most commonly involving the heating element. We address electric element faults that lead to water temperature issues with many common models, from Bradford-White models to other popular brands.

Tankless Water Heater Error Codes

Some tankless water heaters provide extra operational information, but this information isn’t always homeowner-friendly. Is your tankless water heater showing a mysterious error code or refusing to heat water at all? Give us a call for water heater replacement or repair services today. Our technicians are skilled in diagnosing, repairing, and replacing tankless water heater models of all types, regardless of what you use in your living space.
