Signs You Need Gas Water Heater Repairs
A complete lack of hot water is a sure sign that you need to call our plumbers for water heater repair, but it isn’t always that obvious when your gas water heater needs professional attention. Look out for these signs:
- Inconsistent hot water: Fluctuating water temperature could signal a malfunctioning heating element or thermostat.
- Low water pressure: If the pressure drops when you switch to hot water, this indicates an issue with your water heater.
- Leaks: Any water pooling around your water heater’s tank requires immediate attention.
- Strange noises: Popping, rumbling, or banging noises can occur when there’s mineral buildup in your water heater’s tank.
- Rusty or discolored water: If your hot water is rusty or brownish, there may be corrosion in your water heater’s tank.
Gas Water Heater Maintenance
Regular water heater maintenance from a trained professional will extend your equipment’s lifespan, keep it running smoothly, and catch minor issues before they get worse. We recommend having maintenance performed on your gas water heater once a year, which should include flushing the tank to prevent mineral buildup.
Our Premier Village Partner Plan can help you stay on top of maintenance for your water heater and your home’s other essential systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I flush my gas water heater myself?
If you have the time and tools, you can flush your water heater yourself. However, if your water heater hasn’t been flushed in five or more years or its tank has a lot of sediment built up, you should hire a professional to perform maintenance.
Do gas water heaters need maintenance for safety?
Like all gas-powered appliances, gas water heaters require special considerations. Install carbon monoxide detectors throughout your home to detect dangerous gas leaks, and have regular maintenance performed to ensure it’s operating safely.
