A typical repair or tune-up may involve checking the thermostat, inspecting the heating elements, flushing sediment, replacing worn parts, checking for leaks, and ensuring the unit is operating safely and efficiently.
Signs include inconsistent hot water, rumbling or banging noises, discolored water, or visible leaks. If your system is 10+ years old and frequently breaks down, it might be time to consider a replacement.
