Electric Hot Water System and Gas Hot Water System
Is your hot water system not working? Is your water heater faulty or leaking? Perhaps it’s time for an upgrade. Always use a licensed plumber for repairs, whether it’s a simple fix or a more complex issue.
Electric Hot Water System
It is an electric element to heat the water in an insulated tank. Electric heat pumps are also available because they are more efficient and environmentally friendly than storage systems. To heat the water, this gadget uses heat from the ambient air. This is also solar electric boosted systems, which use the sun’s energy to heat water. These systems are less expensive to operate and are ideal for sunny climates.
Gas Hot Water System
Gas storage hot water system, which is available in 4 and 5-star models. You can heat and store water for immediate use. On the other hand, Continuous Flow Hot Water Units heat the water as it flows through the coiled pipe, ensuring that you never run out of hot water and are significantly smaller than storage units.
Why Does the Hot Water System Breakdown?
Because you use your hot water unit every day, it is like any other appliance that may require servicing and repair from time to time. The hot water tank itself is the source of the majority of leaks. If the tank is leaking, there is an internal problem, and one of the components has most likely sprung a leak causing water to leak out and pool slowly.
These are the main reasons why your hot water system breaks down.
IN-LINE VALVE IS LOOSE OR DAMAGED
A water leak on top of your system is easily repaired, unlike a leak near the bottom of your water tank. A faulty in-line valve is a common cause of water tank leaks. This is a handle on top of the water tank that is designed to activate or deactivate the flow of water. To resolve this issue, tighten the nut that holds the ball or in-line valve in place. If the leak worsens after you tighten it, you’ll need to go to Hydro Plumbing Services and buy a new in-line valve for your water heater.
BROKEN PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
Most water heaters include a pressure relief valve, which is designed to release pressure from the water tank when it becomes too high. If the valve on top of your water heater starts to leak, we recommend buying a new one at Hydro Plumbing Services.
THERE IS NO WARM WATER
A broken heating element is the most common cause of a lack of warm water if you have an electric water heater in your home. Your water heater has two heating elements that are responsible for heating the incoming water in the tank. When a heating element fails, you will have little to no hot water to use for showering, cleaning, or laundry.
INADEQUATE SUPPLY OF HOT WATER
Are you constantly running out of hot water? This problem could be the result of a cracked dip tube. This tube is designed to transport cold water to the base of your water tank, where it will be heated. When a crack or hole forms in the dip tube, the incoming supply of cold water may be released near the top or centre of your tank, as a result, the cold water on top of the tank will be directed to your home’s faucets and showers. This hot water heater issue can only be resolved by replacing your system’s dip tube. Because installing a new dip tube is a complicated process, we recommend contacting a certified technician for assistance.
WATER PRESSURE IS LOW
A faulty water heater is not always the cause of low water pressure. If you live in an older home with smaller water pipes, the water flow will be restricted before reaching our kitchen or bathroom skins. The only way to solve this water heater issue is to install new 34-inch water lines in your system. Calcium deposits in water pipes are another issue that can harm your water pressure.
DISCOLORATION OF WATER
Your house’s sink water should be clear. Do you have tainted water in your home? This is an indication of deterioration in your water heater’s water tank or anode rod. Fortunately, if detected early enough, this problem can be resolved. If your home’s water heater isn’t working properly, contact a local plumber like Hydro Plumbing Services to perform repairs or tune-ups. Your system’s anode rod can be easily removed and replaced by a licensed plumber Sydney or HVAC technician.
Call a licensed plumber when:
- Water is leaking from the bottom of your hot water tank.
- There is no water coming from your house’s faucets.
- The water tank’s base is rusted. The inner tank has most likely rusted out as well, and you will need to replace your system.
- Water is constantly flowing out of the pressure relief overflow pipe, and lifting and releasing the test lever does not stop the flow.
- Your hot water system is over a decade old.
- If your hot water system needs to be replaced, call Hydro Plumbing Services.
