Signs Your Tankless Water Heater Needs Repairs

Were you Googling “tankless water heater repairs near me” or “tankless water heater repairs in Gastonia” when you found us? If you were, you probably already suspect your tankless water heater needs repairs, but it’s always better to know for sure! Here are some common signs your tankless water heater needs help:

• Low water pressure. If you see low hot water pressure coming from multiple fixtures, the problem could be caused by a clogged inlet filter or mineral deposits (in hard water) building up inside your system.
• Water leaking from your tankless water heater. Is there water pooling around or dripping from your unit? It could be caused by a bad pipe connection or improper venting!
• No hot water. If you tried troubleshooting your unit (check out our DIY tips tab) and still aren’t getting any hot water, the problem might be a bad heating element.
• Fluctuating water temperatures. If your water is hot one minute and cold the next, that could be a sign of an electrical problem inside your tankless water heater.

We know it can feel scary or overwhelming when your tankless water heater is broken, but you’re in luck! Morris-Jenkins plumbers are water heater pros! When your tankless water heater is giving you a hard time, you’re just one call away from fast repairs.

DIY Tricks to Fix Your Tankless Water Heater

Sometimes, you wanna try fixing things yourself first. We get that! Working with tankless water heaters can be a bit tricky, but there are three things you can easily try on your own:

1)  Check that your tankless unit has electricity. Both gas and electric tankless water heaters need electricity to run. Double check that your unit is connected to a 120-volt outlet. Also check the unit’s breaker on your home’s electrical panel. If it tripped, you’ll need to flip the switch back to “ON.” If it keeps tripping, it’s time to call a professional!

2)  Check the gas supply valve. If the handle/knob on the gas line leading to your unit isn’t turned to the “ON” position (parallel to the gas line), your unit won’t get the fuel it needs to heat your water. Try not to mess with this any more than needed though—it’s dangerous! It’s usually best to just let one of our plumbers take care of this for you.

3)  Check the exhaust vent. If your gas tankless water heater’s exhaust vent (the pipe that expels toxins) is blocked by something, your unit can’t properly heat your home’s water. This can be dangerous for your family if things aren’t venting out of your home properly!

If you’ve checked all of these and still don’t have hot water, it’s time to call the pros!
