Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand water heaters, provide hot water only as it is needed, eliminating the standby energy losses associated with traditional storage water heaters. This efficient approach ensures a continuous supply of hot water while reducing energy consumption.
At John Padilla Plumbing, our experienced technicians are adept at repairing tankless water heaters, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. Whether you're considering an upgrade or need maintenance on your existing system, we're here to provide expert solutions tailored to your needs.
1. Snapping/popping noises - If you're hearing these strange popping sounds in your tank water heater, then give our experts a call. The sounds are coming from sediments mixing together and you unit just needs a good rinse.
2. A flash of cold water in your hot shower - If every now and then you get a little bit of cold water in your hot shower, then give us a call. You likely have a crack in your dip tube that brings cold water into your water heater.
3. Water takes too long to heat up - You could have an issue with your heating element that either needs to be fixed or replaced.
4. A rusty anode rod - Because of the heating element, sediments accumulate in your tank. Your anode rod is supposed to attract the rusting elements from your water heater to preserve your tank, but every now and then this sacrificial anode rod needs to be replaced.
5. Water leaks - Depending on where you leak is, you could use our San Diego water heater repair experts, or you might need to replace your tank. As water heats up it expands which adds pressure to your tank and water lines.
If your water heater stops working, you should contact your local plumber if you are not a licensed plumber yourself. Trying to DIY certain problems, may lead to additional repair, leading to additional water repair cost. A licensed plumber can identify the issue and resolve quickly.
