Why Isn’t My Water Heater Working?

If your water heater has stopped functioning, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can take before calling in our certified professionals. For electric water heaters, always turn off the power at the circuit breaker before attempting any checks.

Here are some actions you can try:

Assess Hot Water Usage

Ensure your household’s hot water demands are within your water heater’s capacity. Overuse may require upgrading to a larger or more efficient system, especially if your current unit is aging.

 Sediment buildup can reduce efficiency. Regular flushing, as part of seasonal maintenance, keeps your system performing at its best.

Verify that the thermostat is set between 110 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal operation.

Tighten the mounting bolts for the heating element if necessary, but avoid overtightening to prevent damage.

Does My Water Heater Need Repair?

Identifying the warning signs of a malfunctioning water heater can save you from expensive repairs and unexpected breakdowns. Timely repairs secure your comfort and extend the lifespan of your system. Here are some key indicators that it’s time to call for professional water heater repairs:

Strange Smells:

Odd odors in your hot water may point to bacterial buildup in the tank.

Unusual Sounds:

Clanking, gurgling, or popping noises could indicate sediment accumulation or internal damage.

Insufficient Hot Water:

A lack of consistent hot water might result from a failing heating element or thermostat.

Visible Leaks:

Water pooling around your unit often signals a need for immediate repairs.

Rusty or Cloudy Water:

Discolored water can indicate corrosion inside the tank.

Reduced Water Flow:

Sediment buildup or pipe obstructions may lower your water pressure.

Inconsistent Temperatures: 

Unstable heating patterns might stem from thermostat issues or system malfunctions.

Reviews From Our Customers

I woke up to a 40 degree house end of January. Furnace fan would run for a couple minutes with no heat then shut off. I called Elite Degrees and Peter was here within the hour. It took him all of 30 seconds to diagnose the problem as a seized inducer. It took less than 30 minutes to remove the assembly and lubricate it as a stop-gap while I wait for the replacement to arrive. It's a few days later now and still working. Price was totally reasonable, actually a little lower than I expected. Overall turned what I thought was a going to be a disaster into a minor inconvenience. Peter is very knowledgable, professional, polite, and understanding. It's always a pleasure working with people like this!
Prompt service Very happy with their service. Peter and his crew did exactly what they promised. Reasonably priced trustworthy and very knowledgeable. This is my go to from now on for heating and cooling issues!! So happy!
Peter from Elite Degrees was incredibly helpful while he was here. My furnace went out on Sunday, he was out first thing Monday morning to help. He was patient and answered all of my questions so I could make an informed decision. Pricing was very fair and service was as fast as it could be and professional. Peter went above and beyond to assist me during a very stressful situation. By Tuesday afternoon I had a brand new furnace unit installed and was enjoying a heated house again.
Excellent service and total integrity. They responded to my late-night call immediately and arrived the very next morning. While other companies might have used the sub-zero weather to push a new unit, these guys prioritized a fast, effective repair to keep my family warm. Honest, professional, and very fast. I'll definitely be calling them again
I am very happy with this company! I talked to Peter and he had Chris the tech come out the same day to diagnose the problem with our furnace. Chris was a really nice guy and did a great job explaining things and fixing our problem! Peter was awesome and gave me a great, fair price on the job!
