Experienced Water Heater Repair in Riverside

In Riverside, the average water hardness level measures 188, which means a fair amount of minerals is left behind every time you turn on the tap. Over time, minerals build up in your water heater tank, eventually eroding the unit from the inside out. If you don’t schedule regular water heater service, you could have a leaking tank in just a few years. When well maintained, a water heater can last for 12 years or more. Some electric models might last for more than 15 years.

If you notice a problem, it’s a good idea to act fast. There are many small issues that a plumber can handle to get your water heater performing optimally.

How do you know when you need professional water heater repair service? Some of the most common signs include:

  • Leaks or condensation
  • Inconsistent hot water temperatures
  • Rust color or odors from the hot water
  • No hot water

Depending on the issue, it’s often inexpensive to have your water heater repaired. You could have something as simple as a faulty ignition switch or an out-pilot light. A plumber can usually fix these issues in less than an hour, making it a quick and easy repair. Ask your plumber about potential repair costs and find out when you should consider a replacement.
