Some of the most common early indications of a water heater issue include:

Inconsistent Water Temperature – When your hot water temperature is constantly fluctuating, the culprit is often the thermostat. Our experts can troubleshoot the issue and make a cost-effective repair to restore the temperature and safety of your hot water quickly and affordably.
Contaminated Hot Water – When you think of contaminated hot water, the first thought is usually particulates in the water. Draining the holding tank and professionally cleaning it is often the solution to flecks and grit in your home's hot water. The other common contaminant in hot water is bacteria. While you cannot see the bacteria, you can smell its foul odor. Professionally cleaning the holding tank will correct this issue and eliminate the bad smell so that you can return to enjoying an odor-free shower in piping hot water.
Limited Hot Water – There could be many reasons for a limited hot water supply. The expert technicians at G.I. Plumbing will evaluate your Bethel Park home's water heater to determine which component is causing you to have less hot water than usual. Some potential issues include a bad heating element, increased sediment in the holding tank, and a thermostat that is wearing out.
A Water Leak – When you discover a puddle under your water heater, it is time to call in the experts at G.I. Plumbing immediately. Even a small puddle is reason for concern. Water leaks coming from a valve, fitting, or the piping around your home's water heater can easily be repaired before the water begins to destroy the exterior of the holding tank. However, if you ignore the leak and allow the water to trickle down the outside of the tank, it could result in a leak in the holding tank wall. Once the integrity of the holding tank is compromised, there is no safe water heater repair solution. You will need a water heater replacement to ensure the safety of your loved ones and home.
Strange Banging And Popping Sounds – Many homeowners hear odd noises coming from their home's water heater and are instantly concerned that the unit is about to explode. That is not the case, as there is a pressure relief valve to evacuate excess pressure and prevent an explosion. The sound is most likely excess sediment in the tank creating the noises. A professional drain and flush service is usually the only water heater repair required to silence these odd sounds.

When To Consider Water Heater Replacement

The average water heater has a life span of eight to twelve years with proper care and professional maintenance. The age of your current water heater will have a significant impact on your decision to fix the existing unit or invest in a fully warrantied water heater replacement. The experts at G.I Plumbing will always explain any problems discovered when evaluating your water heater and provide you with recommendations for a repair or new water heater installation and the cost for each service. Our goal is not to persuade you in one direction or the other. Instead, we want to ensure that we provide you with the information you need to make the best choice for your needs and budget.

Other Important Water Heater Criteria To Consider

If you are unsure about a repair versus a water heater replacement, there are a few other criteria to consider when making your choice. First, if you are not satisfied with the performance of your water heater, for example, because it is too small, a new larger water heater installation could be an excellent choice for your household. In addition, if you are now empty nesters and your massive water heater is excessive and costly to operate, a smaller, more efficient water heater replacement is a wise choice. Finally, if you are thinking about going green, a tankless water heater replacement could be the perfect solution for your home.

Whether you need a dependable water heater repair or water heater installation, G.I. Plumbing is the team you know you can trust for fair and honest pricing, exceptional workmanship, and a full warranty on every job. Call (412)866-2719 today to schedule your appointment with one of our reliable water heater experts.
