Regardless of the type of water heater- an instant water heater, a 707, or a storage water heater, nearly every household in Singapore owns one. They rely on the hot water during cool weather. However, homeowners often find problems with their water heaters out of the blue.

Fortunately, before the water heater breaks down, there are various signs that homeowners can identify to know if they need to get a water heater replacement. You should also contact a plumbing handyman if you encounter any of the following signs:

 

Old Water Heater

All electrical products will eventually reach the end of their lifespan. Even though homeowners understand that they will eventually have to change their water heater, they do not know when to replace their water heater. They often wait until their heater is not producing hot water anymore and is no longer repairable.

It is not ideal to identify signs like water heater leaking, noises, rusts, and failure to produce water only when your heater stops operating. You should identify them early and arrange for a water heater repair or replacement once you have done so.

 

Water Temperature Fluctuates

There is definitely a problem with your water heater if it is unable to produce hot water. However, fluctuating water temperature is also a sign of a water heater failure. Hence, if your heater is not producing hot water properly, you should find a reliable plumber to help you identify the cause of it.

 

Water Heater Leaks

A water heater leak is probably the most common issue with storage water heaters. Such leaks would require immediate attention because if left unattended, the heating capacity of your heater will deteriorate. It will also damage your walls and ceiling. There are various causes for a leaking water heater. You should engage a cheap handyman service in Singapore to find the root cause of the leak.

 

Unusual Water Heater Noises

You should consider engaging a plumber who has done several handyman projects to inspect such issues. He will then be able to advise you some things you should take note of during water heater installation and if your heater requires a replacement.

 

Rusty Water Inside Water Heater

If your water heater always produces rusty water, it could be an indication that the internal part of your storage water heater is rusty. This usually happens when your water heater has been used for years without replacement.

 

Conclusion

You should repair or change your storage or instant water heater once you notice your water heater is leaking, making weird noises or generating water that is either rusty or at fluctuating temperatures. If you do not have the time or skills to do so yourself, you should engage a professional plumber. Alternatively, you can also hire a plumbing handyman to fix your water heater issues.
