Geyser or water heaters are
mostly used in common home appliances. These are used to heat the water, which
is used for various purposes.
Here are some common water
heater issues their causes and possible solutions. One of the most common
issues is running out of hot water, if you have been enjoying a nice hot shower
that suddenly goes cold you know how uncomfortable and frustrating.
There are major causes of this issue:
• Water heater not big enough
• Hard water deposits
• Hot water takes too long
Water heater not big enough
Your water heater may not be the
right size for the water you are using and there are a couple of factors to create
this
• First, all your family has grown and there are more people
who used hot water at the same time?
• You have had a change in routine and you are using hotter
water at the same time for different things.
Solution:
You may need to adjust the
schedule of the water heater or upgrade to a larger capacity water heater.
Hard water deposits
Another cause of running out of
hot water is hard water deposits. Hard water deposits build up over time and
take up space in the bottom of the water heater lowering its capacity. In
addition, calcium deposits on your heating element can cause it to heat less
efficiently causing you to run out of hot water sooner.
Solution:
Installing a water softener
solves a number of common problems caused by hard water and can extend the life
of your water heater. You can also flush your water heater once a year to
remove any hard water deposits .if you suspect that hard water build-up has
affected your heating element it is a good idea to consult a geyser repair services so that
they will assign a professional and inspect your geyser.
Hot water takes too long
The next common issue is your
hot water takes too long to get to the faucet (A faucet is a device that
controls the flow of a liquid or gas from a pipe or container). If it
takes longer than 10seconds to get the hot water you are wasting time, money
and our natural resources.
The likely cause is that your the water heater is too away from the faucet and it has to push all of the existing
water in your pipe through before that can deliver you hot water.
Solution:
You can have a pump install that will cycle
the cold water back into your water heater and bring the hot water to your
faucet before you turn it on.
Alert: Before checking the
geyser one should remember that it has to be unplugged.
