No Hot Water? This Is What Lakeview Plumbers Would Tell You

If you discover that your hot water is not hot, you probably need a plumber to fix it. However, there are a few things you can check before calling a local Lakeview plumber to come out for hot water tank repair.

First, you can check the power source to ensure it is getting power. If you have an electric unit, make sure that the circuit breaker hasn’t been tripped or the fuse hasn’t blown. If you have a gas unit, ensure that the pilot light is lit. If it isn’t, you may need to have a professional come light it for you (depending on the specific model).

If the unit is getting power, the next thing to check is the thermostat. It’s possible that the thermostat just got turned down accidentally. If the thermostat is in its normal position, it will need to be professionally tested to ensure it’s working properly. A licensed Lakeview plumber can also test the thermocouple and heating element to ensure they are working properly. If any of those elements are malfunctioning, the plumber may recommend replacing them (depending on the age and condition of the overall unit).

However, if the problem isn’t fixable (like a cracked hot water tank) or significant sediment buildup that can’t be cleared with a flushing, the unit will need to be replaced. Trust that the Lakeview plumber you use will give you the best advice possible for your specific circumstances to get your hot water restored as quickly as possible.
