Signs Your Hot Water System Needs Repair or Replacement

If you're experiencing problems with your hot water system, it's important to know when it's time for a repair or replacement in order to avoid unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs. Here are some signs that indicate your hot water system needs repair or replacement:

  • Age: If your hot water system is more than 10 years old, it may be time to consider a replacement. As systems age, they become less efficient and more prone to breakdowns. Hot water storage tanks on old electric hot water and gas hot water systems can also become rusted out and faulty.ย 
  • Noise: If your hot water system is making unusual noises, such as popping, cracking or rumbling sounds, it could be an indication of sediment build-up or a failing component.
  • Leaks: If you notice any leaks around your hot water system, it's essential to have it inspected and repaired promptly. Leaks can lead to water damage, mold growth and even structural damage if left unchecked.
  • Inconsistent Water Temperature: If your hot water system is delivering water at inconsistent temperatures, it could be a sign of a malfunctioning thermostat, heating element or other component.
  • Discoloured Water: If your hot water is discoloured or has a foul odour, it's a sign of sediment build-up or a failing component.


At Melbourne Plumbing Co, our team of experts can diagnose and repair any issues with your hot water system. We can also advise you on whether it's time to replace your old system with a more efficient and reliable one.

FAQs

Why has my hot water stopped working?

There could be several reasons why your hot water has stopped working. It could be due to a malfunctioning thermostat, a broken heating element, a tripped circuit breaker, a faulty pilot light, or a blown fuse. It's best to call a professional plumber like Melbourne Plumbing Co to diagnose and fix the issue.

Can my hot water heater be fixed?

In most cases, yes, your hot water heater can be fixed. It depends on the extent of the damage and the age of the unit. If the damage is too severe or the unit is too old, it may be more cost-effective to replace the entire unit rather than repair it.

What is the most common problem with water heaters?

The most common problem with water heaters is a build-up of sediment and mineral deposits in the tank, which can reduce the unit's efficiency and lifespan. Other common problems include a faulty thermostat, a broken heating element, a leaking tank, and a malfunctioning pressure relief valve.

Who repairs hot water systems?

Professional plumbers typically repair hot water systems. Melbourne Plumbing Co are the experts when it comes to hot water systems of all kinds. It's important to choose a licensed and experienced plumber who specialises in hot water repairs to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

When should I worry about my water heater?

You should worry about your water heater if you notice any signs of a problem, such as a lack of hot water, discoloured or foul-smelling water, strange noises coming from the unit, or visible signs of damage or corrosion. It's best to address these issues promptly to avoid more serious and costly problems down the line.

Found my water heater is not working and contacted Chris for help in the morning. He immediately ordered a brand new one and resolved all the problems for me straight away. Also, when heโ€™s fixing for me, he found that thereโ€™s water leaking of my neighborโ€™s water pipes at the same time. Heโ€™s a life saver for both of us now! Thank you so much Chris!

I called Christian and he was amazing. He was in the area and dropped past straight away in between another job. He found an issue which another plumber hadn't. He is very genuine and took the time to investigate thoroughly and explain what the issues were in a polite manner. Would definitely recommend and will be using him whenever I need a plumber in future.

We have been using Melbourne Plumbing Co. for over 2 years, William and the team have always been amazing to deal with, on time and professional. Our hot water service broke on a Friday and William came that day to look at it for us and we had a new hot water system installed on Saturday morning - limiting our time without hot water. William always gives good advice and written quotes before any work is done and we trust him 100%. So nice to have found reliable plumbers!

Chris and his team have done a fabulous and professional job moving and installing new plumbing and appliances for our new kitchen. The job was completed ahead of schedule to an excellent standard!Communication and responsiveness were both excellent.What we appreciated the most was the diligence and care that was shown towards our kitchen space when installing the sink, tap, oven and dishwasher after the cabinetry and stone was installed. This is a rare trait and one to be applauded.We would have no hesitation in hiring Chris and his team from Melbourne Plumbing Co and we will do so again when we tackle our bathroom and laundry.With thanks,Catherine and Mark

The guys were great. There were 2 new toilets,new shower suite and new faucets installed. All done professionally with smiles and provided work updates as it all progressed. Their work area was always left clean. These new installations were required because of my hip issues. Melbourne plumbing were aware and helped me select the products for my needs. Christian was informative and patient. Also wanted to mention that I love my new rain shower with handle. It makes showering so much easier as do the new toilets and faucets. I highly recommend Melbourne Plumbing for not only the plumbing and installation, but also for assisting in choosing the right products for my bathroom. Yes I highly recommend Melbourne Plumbing.
