Hot Baths and Warm Tea Sound Like a Dream? Don't Settle for Lukewarm

One of the most common household complaints is the lack of sufficient hot water for everyday use. Third in line for the shower? This may sound like a recipe for a miserable, ice-cold experience, but it doesn't have to be. With new developments in water heater technology, a seemingly limitless supply of perfect-temperature water is within reach. Despite the potential benefits, the decision to purchase and install a new water heater is a significant one. How can homeowners make an informed decision?

Fluctuating Water Pressure Are More Than Inconvenient 

Noticed a decrease in hot water pressure over time? Hard water buildup may be to blame. This type of blockage, along with others possibly present in the system, can prevent water from adequately flowing into and out of the water heater, leading to an overall decrease in pressure. 

Unsubstantial and outdated water lines only make the problem worse. If the problem persists across cold-water faucets, the issue may be related to fixtures bringing water into the house rather than the hot water system.

Strange Sounds Are an Early Signalear

Should homeowners hear knocking sounds emanating from the water heater, sediments trapped inside the tank are the probable culprits. When these particles enter the system, they often settle at the bottom of the tank. When the burners activate to heat the water, the tank's boiling contents are forced through the layer of sediment at the base, causing it to shift and collide with the metal lining. 

These collisions cause the insistent knocking sound. Not only are the noises annoying, but they can also accelerate wear on the inside of the system itself. The longer the sediment is left to eat away at the tank, the more extensive the damage becomes. 

Fluctuating Water Temperatures Are Bad News 

When it comes to uncontrollable, rapidly fluctuating water temperatures, an aging or damaged water heater is likely the problem at hand. While this issue may only seem to be an annoyance at first, a lack of temperature regulation can pose serious risks. It could lead to or reveal more extensive damage to the plumbing system, so a quick consultation with a local plumbing company is usually the way to go.

Water heaters usually last 12 to 15 years before a replacement is needed, although the time frame varies greatly with use, faulty components, or underlying plumbing damage. Avoid accidental burns or other unpleasant experiences by replacing the water heater as soon as serious problems begin to occur.

Next Steps for Homeowners 

If the water heater in question is too small, too old, or simply malfunctioning in a way that severely inhibits proper use, replacing it with a new model is likely the best course of action. The first step is to reach out to a plumbing professional who can evaluate the situation and give an informed recommendation concerning the path forward.
