Water Heater Repair Services in Longview and SW Washington Cities
When your water heater malfunctions, it can disrupt your daily routine. Our comprehensive water heater repair services in Longview, WA, and the surrounding areas guarantee that you have a reliable supply of hot water. We address the following issues:
- No Hot Water: If your water heater isn’t producing hot water, it could be due to several factors:
- Faulty Thermostat: A malfunctioning thermostat can prevent the heating element from activating.
- Heating Element Failure: If an electric water heater’s heating element is not heating the water, it may need to be replaced.
- Gas Pilot Light Issues: A blown-out pilot light or faulty gas valve can prevent gas water heaters from working.
- Leaking Water Heater: Leaks can cause water damage and indicate serious issues:
- Corroded Tank: Over time, the inside of the tank can rust, leading to leaks and potential tank failure.
- Loose Connections: Connections at the top or bottom of the water heater might become loose, causing leaks.
- Pressure Relief Valve Issues: If the pressure relief valve is faulty or blocked, it can cause water to leak.
- Strange Noises: Rumbling, popping, or hissing sounds often signal sediment buildup or failing components:
- Sediment Buildup: Minerals in the water can settle at the bottom of the tank, causing noise when the heating element turns on.
- Faulty Heating Elements: Worn-out or damaged heating elements can make unusual noises as they operate.
- High Pressure: Excessive pressure in the tank can cause hissing sounds, indicating a need for adjustment or repair.
