Signs your hot water tank is failing
A hot water tank almost always warns you before it quits. These are the six signs we check first, and the part each one comes from.
-
PartTank
A leak at the base of the tank
Water or rust at the bottom of the tank usually means the tank itself is leaking. Switch off its breaker, close the cold water valve, then call.

-
PartLower element
No hot water, or only lukewarm
On an electric tank it's usually an element or a thermostat. That's a repair, as long as the tank itself is still sound.
-
PartSediment
Popping and rumbling noises
Scale and sediment build up at the bottom. Water heating underneath makes the layer crack and pop.
-
PartAnode rod
Rusty water from the tap
Brown water on the hot side only points inside the tank: the anode rod is spent and the tank has started to rust.
-
PartAnode rod
A rotten-egg smell
Bacteria in the water react with the anode rod and give off sulphur. It can often be fixed without replacing the tank.
-
PartRating plate
The tank's age, and your insurer
The year it was made is on the rating plate. Several insurers ask for replacement after 10 to 12 years, even if it still works. Check your policy.

Hot water tank replacement: frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to replace an electric hot water tank?
It depends on the size, 40 or 60 gallon, and on the installation at your place. Send a photo of the rating plate and the tank, and we'll get back to you with your price in under an hour.
How long does the installation take?
About 1 h 30 for a full replacement, from draining the old tank to switching on the new one.
Do you repair tanks, or only replace them?
Both. If the tank is still sound, we repair it. If it's done, we tell you straight and replace it.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
Preferably, yes. Ideally someone is there to let us in and show us the tank.
My hot water tank is leaking right now. What do I do?
Switch off the tank's breaker at the electrical panel, then close the cold water valve on the pipe above the tank. If water is getting close to the electrical panel, don't touch it. Then call us, day or night.
Do you install gas or tankless water heaters?
No. We work on electric hot water tanks, 40 and 60 gallon.
