Signs your hot water tank needs to be repaired

When you need to repair or replace your Calgary hot water tank, you want a local company familiar with the various code requirements to handle the work. Spring’s Servicing & Heating has the necessary permits and expertise to complete any hot water tank installation quickly, correctly, and always to code.

Here are some of the top things to look for when you suspect your hot water tank needs attention.

Insufficient Hot Water

Insufficient Hot Water

Running out of hot water faster than usual may indicate a problem with the heating element or thermostat.

Water Temperature Fluctuations

Water Temperature Fluctuations

If the water temperature is inconsistent, it could signal issues with the thermostat or heating element. If the water takes longer than usual to heat up, the heating elements or tank insulation might fail.

Discoloured Water

Discoloured Water

Rusty or murky water can suggest corrosion inside the tank or problems with the anode rod.

Strange Noises or Leaking

Strange Noises or Leaking

Knocking, rumbling, or popping sounds from the tank often indicate sediment buildup affecting the heater’s operation. Any signs of water pooling around the base of the tank indicate a leak that needs immediate attention.

Hot water tank service and regular maintenance

Regularly servicing your hot water tank can result in a longer lifespan and better efficiency. Preventing bigger issues can save you time and money and help prevent potential disasters in your home. Common maintenance tasks for hot water tanks include:

  • Drain and flush the tank annually
  • Check the anode rod every 2-3 years
  • Inspect the pressure relief valve regularly
  • Adjust the temperature setting to 120°F for efficiency
  • Insulate the hot water tank and pipes
  • Test the temperature and pressure relief valve annually
