We are well-equipped to handle any issue that your hot water heater may be experiencing. Below are some of the most common problems that you may come across with tankless water heaters and traditional water heaters. If you are experiencing any of the following issues with your water heater, please don’t hesitate to contact us so we can come out and take a look at it for you.
Loose connections or a faulty pressure relief valve commonly cause leaks. Even if a leak is small, it can quickly grow into a significant problem if you don’t address it swiftly. Be sure to call us at the first sign of a problem so we can save your home from extensive water damage.
If this issue has always been the case for your property, then the problem could be that the system is too small, and it’s time to install a new tankless water heater or tank water heater. However, if this is a more recent issue, then the problem could be related to colder weather, leaks or sediment buildup. Whatever the problem is, we will get to the bottom of it and get you back to having plenty of hot water in no time.
The most common bad odor that people report is a smell that is akin to rotten eggs. This smell is usually caused by bacteria reacting with the water heater. However, never fear, we have the tools and expertise to fix this issue and get your water back to being odorless.
No heat or hot water being produced anywhere in the house is one of the most prevalent issues, and it is usually due to the heating elements in your water heater not operating correctly. We will be happy to look into this for you and get to the bottom of what is happening.
If you can give us basic information and your best diagnosis before you contact us, then we will address the problem and complete water heater repairs even faster. The first thing we will likely ask is what type of water heater you have.
Gas water heaters and electric water heaters can be tank or tankless. It is rather easy to determine if you have a tankless water heater because they don’t have a massive tank. However, a gas and an electric water heater will often look very similar. You will want to look on top of the unit for either a flue or gas line connection if it is a gas water heater or just an electrical supply if it’s an electric water heater.
If your problem is that the water is not hot, try doing a quick check to see if this is the case throughout the house or just in certain rooms. Try to turn on the hot water in each faucet and see where it works and where it doesn’t. Having this information will help us treat this problem quickly.
The more information you can provide to us, the more likely we will be able to promptly solve the problem with your electric, gas, or tankless water heater. However, we will happily go off of any information you have and do our best to render professional hot water heater repair services for your hot water heater to mitigate the issue.
Determining whether to repair or replace your water heater can be a challenging decision. Grove Heating & Cooling is here to guide you through this process and ensure your home has reliable hot water. We can assess your tank or tankless systems and let you know if water heater repair or replacement is a good solution for your needs.
Minor issues like small leaks, inconsistent temperatures, strange noises, and discolored water can often be repaired. However, if your water heater is nearing the end of its lifespan (8-12 years for tank models, up to 20 years for tankless), frequently needs repairs, has significant leaks, or results in high energy bills, replacement may be more cost-effective.
Tank water heaters are cheaper upfront and easier to repair but less efficient, while tankless models are more energy-efficient and longer-lasting but have higher upfront costs. Grove Heating & Cooling can help you decide the best course of action for reliable hot water.

While some minor issues like relighting the pilot light can be done by most homeowners, most water heater repairs require professional expertise. Handling repairs yourself can be dangerous and may void the warranty. It’s best to leave repairs to qualified technicians who can safely and effectively address the problem.
Sediment buildup occurs when minerals in the water, like calcium and magnesium, settle at the bottom of the tank or within the tankless unit. This can lead to decreased efficiency as the unit works to heat water and damage over time. Flushing your current water heater tank annually or descaling your tankless water heater can help prevent sediment buildup and increase energy savings.
The time required for a water heater repair varies depending on the issue. Minor repairs, like replacing a thermostat or heating element, can take a few hours. More complex problems may require a longer time to diagnose and fix. Your technician can provide an estimated timeframe after evaluating the situation.
Common parts that may need replacing include the thermostat, heating elements, anode rod, and pressure relief valve. Routine maintenance can help identify worn-out parts early and replace them before they cause significant issues.
The cost of water heater repairs can vary widely depending on the nature and extent of the problem. Minor repairs may cost a few hundred dollars while more extensive repairs are higher in price. Your technician can provide a more accurate estimate after inspecting the unit.
Yes, regular maintenance can significantly extend the lifespan of your water heater. Annual inspections, flushing the tank to remove sediment, and replacing worn-out parts can keep your unit running efficiently and prevent major issues that can lead to premature failure.
