Common Water Heater Problems Homeowners Experience

Most homeowners don’t give their water heater a second thought until it starts experiencing problems. Generally, most units will give signs that they need attention. Our plumbers quickly diagnose problems and then recommend appropriate solutions.

Water heater issues that we frequently encounter include these:
  • No hot water
  • Inadequate heating
  • Water leaks
  • Noisy operation
  • Discolored or smelly water
  • Water that is too hot
  • Low water pressure

When Should You Repair vs. Replace Your Water Heater?

Several factors determine which route you should take. We can solve many water heater issues with a simple repair. Our professionals will guide you toward the right solution for your home.

Consider these aspects when contemplating repair or replacement.
  • Water heater’s age
  • Type of problem
  • Repair cost
  • Frequency of repairs

When Water Heater Repair Makes Sense

If your appliance is less than 10 years old and is under warranty or just out of its warranty period, a repair will usually make sense. Minor issues such as a failing heating element or thermostat incur little cost. We can easily resolve rumbling issues or insufficient hot water by flushing the tank.

Signs It’s Time for Water Heater Replacement

Water heater replacement makes sense if your unit is over 10 years old and nearing the end of its lifespan. Tank leaks necessitate immediate replacement, while discolored water is a sign of internal tank corrosion. If the repair cost exceeds 50% of the cost of a new unit, new water heater installation is the better option for long-term reliability.

Water Heater Repair & Maintenance

Our plumbers can handle all types of water heater repair issues and respond quickly to calls to minimize your inconvenience. We thoroughly inspect all parts to determine where the problem lies. To keep your unit in top condition, we recommend regular maintenance. With routine inspections, cleanings, and safety checks, you can extend the heater’s life.

Water Heater Installation & Replacement

No water heater lasts forever. When the time comes for water heater replacement, we will present various options. After selecting one, we will install it and perform safety checks to ensure correct operation.

Tankless Water Heater Services

Tankless water heaters need different care from traditional ones. These systems need annual or biannual descaling to clear minerals like calcium and lime that restrict water flow and cause damage. When switching to a tankless model from a traditional one, you may need a utility upgrade before we can install it.

Water Heater Expansion Tank Installation

We also offer water heater expansion tanks that we install on your cold-water supply line. These devices protect your water heater and plumbing system from thermal expansion. Expansion tanks relieve pressure that can build up while heating water.

Frequently Asked Questions

The only thing most people know about water heaters is that they make life easier. Our team is happy to answer all questions you have about water heater repair, replacement, and more.


The answer depends on the type of water heater you own. Traditional tank models last an average of 12 years, while tankless models can last up to 25 years. Regular preventive maintenance can help extend the appliance’s lifespan.

Water heater replacement costs depend on the type of unit you choose. Traditional tank models cost between $1,500 and $3,700. Tankless models range from $2,000 to $6,500.

Several issues can cause a water heater to stop producing hot water. For electric models, common issues include a tripped circuit breaker or failed heating elements. Gas models include extinguished pilot lights, faulty thermocouples, or tripped thermal switches.

For traditional tank heaters, schedule annual maintenance to flush the tank and inspect its elements. Tankless heaters also need an annual flush to descale the system interior. If your area has hard water, you should increase maintenance to every six months.

What they’re saying about Meade HVAC

My entire heating system fried during the coldest week of the year, and Meade had it replaced so quickly. They explained everything in terms even I could understand. Everyone was kind and the entire experience was quick and easy. I wouldn't use anyone else moving forward. Thanks for your hard work, guys! I appreciate everything!!

Elliot and his partner did a fantastic job with a complex furnace replacement. They carefully explained all they would have to do, then got to work. When finished, they helped connect our thermostat with the smartphone app and walked us through all of the features. They were very thorough and professional. I would highly recommend Meade for HVAC service.

Meade/BL Ott installed a new propane furnace in our home. Nick and Fernando did an outstanding job. The were fast, efficient, and courteous. They explained all the work performed, cleaned up the job site, and made sure we understood the function. They both represented the company very positively.
