Why is the Hot Water Not Working?

A malfunctioning water heater can disrupt your daily routine and cause inconvenience in your Decatur home. Some common problems include lack of hot water, strange noises, leaks, and foul odors. Fortunately, our team at Valley Heating & Cooling is well-equipped to address these issues promptly.

If your hot water isn’t working, there could be several potential causes. Here are some common issues to consider:

  • Tripped Circuit Breaker or Failed Heating Element: For electric water heaters, check if the breaker has tripped or if the heating element needs replacement.
  • Pilot Light or Gas Supply Issues: Gas water heaters may not work if the pilot light goes out, the gas supply is interrupted, or the thermocouple is malfunctioning.
  • Broken Thermostat: A faulty thermostat may fail to regulate the temperature correctly, leaving you without hot water.
  • Sediment Buildup: Over time, mineral deposits can accumulate in the tank, insulating the heating element and reducing heating efficiency. Regular flushing can help prevent this.
  • Undersized or Clogged Tankless Units: Tankless water heaters may struggle to keep up with demand if they’re too small for your household needs, or they may have clogged filters or insufficient power supply.
  • Plumbing or High-Demand Issues: External plumbing problems or a sudden increase in hot water usage can temporarily deplete your supply.
  • Old Water Heater: Aging systems lose efficiency and capacity over time, often signaling it’s time for an upgrade.

Regular maintenance is key to preventing water heater problems and extending its lifespan. Our team offers comprehensive maintenance services to keep your water heater running smoothly year-round, saving you time, money, and hassle in the long run.

If you're dealing with any of these problems, Valley Heating & Cooling is here to help. Our experienced technicians provide fast, effective solutions to restore your hot water. Call us today for expert service!

Should I Repair or Replace My Water Heater?

When faced with water heater issues, homeowners often wonder whether to repair or replace their unit. Factors such as the age of the water heater, the extent of the damage, and the cost of repairs all play a role in this decision-making process.

In some cases, minor repairs can effectively resolve the problem and prolong the life of your water heater. However, if your unit is old or experiencing frequent breakdowns, investing in a new water heater may be more cost-effective in the long term.

Our team at Valley Heating & Cooling can assess the condition of your water heater and provide guidance on whether repair or replacement is the best course of action. We prioritize your satisfaction and will work with you to find a solution that meets your needs and budget.
