Signs Your Hot Water Cylinder Needs Repairing
The main signs your hot water cylinder may need repairing include hot water that runs out quickly, an immersion heater that keeps tripping, or water that's only lukewarm. You might also notice leaks, damp patches, or dripping water coming from the valves or pipe joints near the cylinder.
Strange noises, such as popping or hissing sounds, can also mean there's a build-up inside the cylinder. In this case, you may find that water takes longer to heat up, or your hot taps may lose pressure. Discoloured or smelly hot water is another warning sign.
If you notice any of these signs, book a professional check-up with us. We can diagnose the thermostat and valves, and flush out any sludge so that your hot water is ready to be used again.
