Whether it\u2019s to take a shower, wash your dishes or wash your clothes, your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westlandhvac.com\/water-heaters\">water heater<\/a> is a busy appliance. With such an important job, it\u2019s always very inconvenient when it starts to break. At Westland Heating and Air Conditioning\u00a0we&#8217;ve\u00a0responded to tons of calls for repairs on water heaters. We wanted to help out our customers in the \u00a0Rocky River, OH\u00a0area so we put together 3 of the most common repairs that will most likely happen to your water heater at some point.<\/p>\n<h3>Rust<\/h3>\n<p>Inside your water there is something called an anode rod, also called a sacrificial rod. This metal stick exists to keep rust from forming inside your water heater. It does this by absorbing tiny electrical currents that cause rust to form. But eventually, the sacrificial rod deteriorates. At that point, the inside of your water heater will begin to rust. You\u2019ll start to notice rust-colored water coming out of your hot water faucets. Once that starts to happen, there is rarely any other option except to replace your water heater.<\/p>\n<h3>Sediment<\/h3>\n<p>If you have hard water in your area, this can cause mineral deposits and sediment to build up on the bottom of your water heater. Eventually, this can keep the heat from the burner from actually reaching the water. This can cause low water temperatures and luke-warm showers.<\/p>\n<h3>Water Leaks<\/h3>\n<p>Water leaks are another common problem with water heaters. Leaks can happen on the tank itself or with one of the pipe fittings that connect into the water heater. Corrosion from rust or minerals can cause the water heater to leak and the pipes to come a little loose.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re having any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westlandhvac.com\/water-heaters\/water-heater-repair-and-maintenance\">water heater issues at your home in Rocky River, OH<\/a>, contact the experts at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westlandhvac.com\/contact\/contact\">Westland Heating and Air Conditioning<\/a>.
