Common Hot Water Problems

Not sure what's wrong? Here are the issues we see most often:

  • No hot water at all — could be element, thermostat, pilot light, or gas supply

  • Water not hot enough — often a thermostat issue or undersized system

  • Running out of hot water quickly — sediment buildup or failing element

  • Leaking tank — pressure relief valve or tank corrosion

  • Strange noises — sediment in tank, usually needs a flush or replacement

  • Discoloured or smelly water — anode rod or tank deterioration
