Signs Your Water Heater Needs Repair

Changing Water Temperatures

Sediment buildup inside your water heater may coat the heating element, leading to uneven water temperatures or strange noises. San Antonio’s water supply varies in mineral content, which can cause buildup much faster. Regular maintenance is the best way to prevent problems and extend the life of your water heater.

Water Discoloration

If your hot water heater has a reddish or brownish tint, it could be caused by corrosion inside the tank or mineral buildup. Over time, the city’s water conditions can lead to sediment accumulation that affects water clarity and taste. If you notice discoloration, call Goettl as soon as possible to ensure the water is safe for your family.

Lack of Hot Water

You count on your water heater for a steady flow of hot water. If the water is too cool, it could be caused by a faulty heating element, a failing thermocouple, a damaged gas control valve, or a broken dip tube. Given San Antonio’s hot summers and cold winters, homeowners often rely on more water – making the issue more noticeable. Our team can figure out the cause and get it fixed to get your hot water flowing again.

Strange Noises Like Banging, Popping, or Rumbling

Your water heater makes some noise during operation, but it shouldn’t be disruptive. If you hear banging, popping, or rumbling sounds, it could be caused by wear and tear on components or faulty heating elements or steam bubbles caused by mineral buildup. Underground leaks also cause noises, particularly the sound of running water when you have no fixtures in use.

If you hear a whining or humming sound, it could be caused by a failing pressure relief valve and pressure buildup that could cause an explosion or leak. Call Goettl for emergency repair immediately if you suspect a pressure relief valve problem.

Leaks or Bursts

A water heater leak can cause considerable water damage, high water bills, and health risks from mold and mildew, so it should be addressed quickly. There are many possible causes for leaks, including failing pressure relief valves, loose or faulty connections, or corrosion caused by age, hard water, or minimal water heater maintenance.

Thermostat Issues

Your water heater’s thermostat controls the temperature and ensures a steady hot water supply. If you have fluctuating temperatures or no hot water, a faulty thermostat may be to blame. Our experts can inspect and recalibrate or replace your thermostat to restore your system’s performance.

Pilot Light Issues

A pilot light that won’t ignite or can’t stay lit can have a lot of causes, including a failing thermocouple, issues with the gas supply, or a venting issue. Our technicians can determine the cause and perform necessary repairs to ensure your water heater operates safely.

Gas Control Valve Malfunction

The gas control valve regulates fuel flow to your water heater’s burner. A malfunctioning valve can cause inconsistent heating or no water at all. If your water temperature fluctuates or you have no hot water, our team can inspect, repair, or replace your gas control valve.

They Truly Care!

Water Heater Repair Call

I cannot express how thankful I am! Jay from Goettl Air Conditioning and Plumbing replaced my water heater just when I needed it the most. It was such a stressful time when I found that my water heater was leaking. It's heartwarming to know that a company truly cares about people! Thank you so much for stepping in and helping out. I am deeply grateful!

Goettl Stepped Up

Water Heater Replacement

We hired Goettl to replace our hot water heater. Initially there were a few issues. But Goettl stepped up in a major MAJOR way. They didn’t simply repair the cartridge; they rebuilt and replaced the entire valve, even created a passageway from the closet to make easy access, just in case problems ever arise. I truly am overwhelmed with the level of service.

Respect, And It Shows

Water Heater Repair Call

We were having water heater issues. Goettl sent Joseph, who reviewed our system and gave us five different options that would meet our immediate needs. He was professional, personable and spoke to me (a female) in such a way as to not make me feel incompetent (very much appreciated). If we ever have plumbing needs in the future, Goettl will be the first we will call.

So Good, So Fast!

Water Heater Replacement

Doug was absolutely excellent. He was on time and was able to remove my old water heater, install a new bathroom faucet, install a new water heater and replaced the water filter. Within seven hours of my first call to Goettl and four hours of Doug's arrival all our problems were fixed (including a couple we weren't even aware of). Thanks Doug and thanks Goettl.

Glad I Chose Goettl

I originally went with another company for my water heater issues. But I wanted a second opinion. I called Goettl and Joseph was great. He was very friendly and very knowledgeable in his field. He took the time to explain the issues I had with my water heater in great detail. I am glad that I went with Goettl because their service techs are awesome!!

Awoke this morning to discover no hot water in the midst of 28 degree weather. Requested assistance with Goettl plumbing and Rudy and Christopher promptly arrived to rectify the situation.

They Won My Business

Water Heater Replacement

We were jumping through hoops with some other companies after our hot water heater went out until we finally called Goettl. They had Joseph out to assess the problem within one hour, and then the tech Johnathan and his co-installer were here to do the repair the same day. Goettl will be our first call next time! We appreciate Joseph and the rest of the Goettl crew!
