Common Water Heater Problems We Fix (and What They Mean)

Accurate Diagnostics for Every Situation

1. No Hot Water / Not Enough Hot Water: Often due to heating element failure, tripped breakers, or gas valve issues. We test and repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
2. Water Heater Leaks: Caused by loose fittings, T&P valve failure, or tank corrosion. We identify the source and recommend repair or replacement.
3. Strange Noises (Popping, Rumbling, Hissing): Usually sediment buildup or a sign of leakage. We flush tanks or replace components as needed.
4. Smelly / Discolored / Rusty Water: Caused by bacterial growth or corrosion. We may flush the system, replace the anode rod, or inspect piping.
5. Low Hot Water Pressure: Can stem from tank buildup or plumbing clogs. We locate the cause and restore steady flow.
6. Water Too Hot or Too Cold: Usually thermostat, gas valve, or heating element problems. We calibrate or replace for safe temperature control.

We repair all major types of water heaters—conventional (gas and electric) and energy-efficient tankless systems.

Repair or Replace? Making the Right Decision for Your Sullivan's Island Home

Guidance You Can Count On

When faced with a water heater issue, deciding whether to repair or replace can be difficult. We offer transparent assessments based on key factors:

1. Age of Water Heater: Over 10–15 years for tanks and 20+ for tankless may suggest replacement.
2. Cost of Repair vs. Replacement: If repairs cost close to 50% of a new unit, replacement is recommended.
3. Severity of Issue: Multiple or serious failures may not justify further repairs.
4. Energy Efficiency: Upgrading to a new model can reduce energy bills long term.
5. Warranty: Units under warranty usually qualify for more affordable repair.
