Water runs completely cold. Usually caused by a failed heating element, broken thermocouple, or extinguished pilot light.
Showers turn lukewarm fast due to heavy mineral sediment buildup or an inaccurate thermostat.
Water pooling or dripping around the base. Requires prompt evaluation to avoid internal tank burst and property damage.
Popping and sizzling noises occur when hardened sediment traps steam bubbles against the heated tank bottom.
Brown or metallic hot water signals that the sacrificial anode rod has worn out and the tank cylinder is rusting.
Gas flame goes out repeatedly or burns yellow, indicating a dirty burner orifice or failing thermocouple.
Recurring breakdowns add up fast. Upgrading to a new energy-efficient unit is often the smarter financial move.
