What are the signs my water heater needs repair or replacement?

Common signs your water heater needs repair or replacement include fluctuating water temperature, leaks, unpleasant smells, rusty or discolored water, reduced water pressure, odd sounds, and lukewarm water[0]. Early repair helps prevent costly damage and extend equipment life. If replacement is best, our licensed pros can size and install a standard or tankless model to match your needs and budget.

• Look for puddles or corrosion around the tank.
