Your water heater is something you need all year long. From making sure your showers are always at a comfortable temperature to keeping water hot while you wash your dishes, your water heater puts in a lot of work all the time. That’s why it’s important to prioritize repair services when necessary. Here are a few of the top indicators that you need to hire a water heater repair service.
- Discolored water. If your water is muddy or rusty colored, there’s likely some sort of contaminant in your water heater. Most of the time, this contaminant is either rust or bacteria. These contaminants discolor your water and can even cause your water to smell, so it’s important for the quality of your water to prioritize water heater repair services when necessary.
- Inconsistent water temperature. Water temperature should be consistent when you turn on your faucet or shower head. If the water temperature fluctuates constantly, chances are you need a water heater repair service. This indicator can sometimes be a bit more subtle, so pay attention to any sudden or unexpected water temperature changes.
- Water heater leaks. Leaks are never a good sign for any equipment or machinery, and your water heater is no exception. Many homeowners don’t see or check on their water heater regularly to make note of any leaks, so it’s a good idea to check your water heater for leaks periodically, especially if you’ve noticed other problems related to your system.
