Signs That Your Water Heater May Be Failing You Soon

In Singapore, a water heater is an important home appliance that makes it easier and more comfortable for you take a shower every day. Almost all the water heaters in Singapore has warranty for its parts and can prevent you from paying for high expenses associated with water heater repair in Singapore. However, it is essential to know the signs of when your heater is failing so that you know whether there is a need to repair or replace. Here are some signs you may notice if your water heater is breaking down.

Rusty water

When taking a shower with your water heater on and you can see rusty water, this could be an indication that there is rusting on the inside of your water heater, although rusty pipes could also contribute to the the problem. Getting a replacement for water heaters can be steep especially with high-end models where its water heater price is on the high side. Thus, it is recommended to engage a plumber to take a look when there is such a scenario.

The water around the heater

When you see that there is water around the water heater, it could mean that there could be a fracture or tiny leak in your tank. It is possible that when the metal heats up, there is expansion, which cause the fracture, causing the leak. And when the metal cools, leakage from the inner tank may come to a stop. This will lead to water around the heater rather than a constant leakage. It is recommended to go for a replacement rather than to find water heater repair in Singapore. But before any other action, ensure that the tank connections or fittings do not have any other leaks.

Noise and rumbling

With passing time, there is buildup of sediment on the tank bottom in a water heater. When the sediment gets heated up again and again, it ends up hardening eventually. Once this occurs, you will be able to hear banging or rumbling noises emanating from the heater. It could signal that your water heater is nearing its end and you need consider a new replacement water heater and engage a profession plumber to aid with your water heater installation.

Burn marks on the bottom

Burn marks on your water heater’s bottom could suggest two possible issues – improper venting and damaged flue pipes. It is a good idea to forgo water heater repair in this case, and get the water heater replaced as it is an obvious sign that the water heater could be beyond repair.
