If your water heater is not producing hot water or if the water is not as hot as it used to be, there could be an issue with the heating element, thermostat, or a buildup of sediment in the tank.

Loud popping, cracking, or banging noises coming from your water heater often indicate sediment buildup in the tank. This buildup can cause overheating and damage to the tank if not addressed.

Any signs of water pooling around the base of the water heater or leaking from fittings, connections, or the tank itself can indicate a problem. Leaks can lead to significant damage if not addressed promptly.

Rusty or discolored water coming from your faucets may indicate corrosion inside your water heater tank. This could potentially lead to leaks or other issues if not addressed.

A foul smell coming from your hot water taps can be a sign of bacterial growth inside the tank. This is often caused by a lack of maintenance or improper temperature settings.

Inconsistent water temperature or sudden fluctuations between hot and cold water can indicate a problem with the heating element, thermostat, or sediment buildup.

Most water heaters have a lifespan of around 8 to 12 years. If your water heater is approaching or exceeding this age range, it may be more prone to problems and may require repairs or replacement.
