When Does My Water Heater Need Repair?

If your water heater stops providing hot water or you find a leaked tank, it's clear you need to contact Sanks for water heater repair. However, there are earlier signs to watch for indicating a call to us is necessary. Inconsistent water temperatures, water being too hot or too cold compared to the set temperature, are signs of issues with the thermostat or heating element. A sudden shortage of hot water often points to a heating element problem too. Listen for unusual noises, which might suggest sediment accumulation that requires flushing. Discolored hot water can indicate sediment buildup or issues like anode rod corrosion. Additionally, any form of leakage, even minor drips or small puddles, should prompt you to call us immediately.

Types of Water Heaters We Repair

Glenside, PA, is home to various water heater technologies, and our services cover installations, replacements, conversions, maintenance, and repairs for every type. We work with different systems such as traditional tank water heaters, on-demand units, condensing water heaters, and heat pump water heaters.

Standard Tank Water Heater

Standard Tank Water Heaters

Traditional tank water heaters are still the most common choice, featuring a tank that both heats and reserves hot water. A typical household usually has a 40-gallon tank, although options range from smaller to significantly larger sizes. While electric water heaters offer low installation costs and efficient operation, natural gas models are generally more cost-effective in the long run and replenish hot water supplies faster.

Tankless Water Heater

Tankless Water Heaters

On-demand or tankless water heaters heat water as required rather than keeping it stored, available in electric and gas versions. These systems have a higher upfront installation cost but offer numerous advantages such as an unlimited hot water supply, longer-lasting equipment, reduced monthly operating costs, overall cost savings, less maintenance, and a reduced chance of significant leaks.

Condensing Water Heater

Condensing Water Heater

Gas water heaters, in both tank and tankless configurations, are available in condensing styles. These units are more efficient than typical non-condensing models, as they are equipped with an additional feature that captures and reuses heat from exhaust gases, which would otherwise be lost, to heat the water more effectively.

Heat Pump Water Heater

Heat Pump Water Heater

Heat pump water heaters represent an advanced type of electric tank water heaters, using a heat pump mechanism to transfer heat to the water rather than directly heating it through an electric coil. This innovative approach is the most efficient available and is often combined with the HVAC systems in both residential and commercial settings.
