San Jose Water Heaters

When to Call Platinum Rooter & Plumbing

  • You are not getting enough hot water: If you find yourself frequently running out of hot water, there is a good chance the temperature setting on the tank is off. It could also be that your current water heater is getting old or not able to keep up with your property’s needs, in which case you may need to install a new one.
  • Your water smells funny: A funny smell in your hot water is typically a sign that there is bacteria in your water tank. The solution to this is to flush your tank out and have it professionally cleaned by one of our skilled plumbers. Wait several hours after this service has been completed to test your water again. If it is still emitting a strange odor, and/or your cold water smells funny as well, the problem may not be with your water heater.
  • You are not getting any hot water: If your heater has stopped providing you with hot water entirely, you could be dealing with a pilot light problem, or a faulty thermocouple. If you have an electric water heater rather than a gas-powered unit, there could also be an issue with the heating element. All of this can be taken care of fairly easily, however, you should call us as soon as soon as possible just so you can find out for sure whether you need a simple repair or a complete system replacement.
  • Your water heater is making strange  noises: If your water heater is making a strange banging sound, the most likely reason is that a lot of sediment has accumulated in the bottom of the tank. When the heating element starts burning sediment, the compounds in the tank react to create that alarming noise. Call us to look at your unit and see if there is a problem with the heating element itself (i.e., if it’s starting to burn out) or if you just need to get rid of sediment build-up. The latter problem is relatively easy to deal with and can pretty much be taken care of by draining your water tank.
