Common Geyser Issues

Notify us immediately if your water heater has any of the following issues:

  • Leaks from the water heater – Leaks can happen in two major places: the top and the bottom part. If the leak is from the top, it could mean the inlet pipe is loose or the inlet valve is leaking. When the leaking is from the bottom, it means the tank itself is leaking, and the remedy is a replacement.
  • No hot water – A water heater that doesn’t produce hot water is faulty. Often this is traceable to the tripping-off of the circuit breaker or failure of the heating element.
  • Not hot enough water – When a water heater is producing cold water or water not hot enough, there is a problem with the thermostat.
  • Too hot water – This is also caused by the thermostat, where the temperature is too high.

Geysers can run into problems anytime, which can be discomforting. There is no better way to prevent this from happening than to maintain your appliance from time to time. Carrying out this procedure yourself is not advisable, as you could end up damaging some wires or tampering with some connections. It’s best to call for a professional. By doing so, it would be easy to identify any underlying issues.
