Find answers to common questions about water heater repair and discover how to find qualified water heater repair plumbers in UK using Plumbyng.co.uk.

What causes a water heater to leak?

Water heater leaks can stem from various issues:
  • Corrosion: Over time, the tank can corrode, especially at the bottom, leading to leaks.
  • Cracked tank: A crack in the tank, usually due to pressure or temperature fluctuations, results in leaks.
  • Faulty drain valve: A damaged drain valve can leak water.
  • Loose or damaged pipes: Leaks can occur at connections between the tank and pipes.
  • Pressure relief valve issues: A malfunctioning pressure relief valve may leak.
  • Anode rod failure: The anode rod protects against corrosion; failure can lead to leaks.
A leak is a serious problem. Contact a plumber immediately.

How long does a water heater last?

The lifespan of a water heater depends on factors such as:
  • Type of water heater: Tank water heaters typically last 8-12 years, while tankless water heaters can last much longer (20+ years).
  • Water quality: Hard water causes mineral buildup, shortening lifespan.
  • Maintenance: Regular maintenance extends the life of water heaters.
  • Usage: Frequent and heavy use can reduce lifespan.
Regular maintenance can extend the life significantly.

How to fix a water heater?

Water heater repair is best left to a qualified plumber. Attempting DIY repairs can worsen problems and create safety hazards. Contact a professional plumber to diagnose the issue and perform repairs or recommend a replacement.

How often should I flush my water heater?

Flushing a tank water heater removes sediment buildup, improving efficiency and extending its lifespan. The recommended frequency is annually, but it may depend on water quality and usage.
