Hot Water Repair FAQ – Vermont

Why has my hot water suddenly stopped working?

Hot water failures can occur due to faulty thermostats, heating elements, gas supply issues or leaks within the tank. A licensed plumber can inspect the system to determine the cause.

Can a leaking hot water system be repaired?

In some cases valves or fittings can be replaced to repair the system. However, if the tank itself is leaking, replacing the hot water system may be necessary.

How long do hot water systems last?

Most hot water systems last between 8–12 years, depending on the type of system and how well it has been maintained.

Is it worth repairing a 15-year-old hot water system?

Generally, older systems with leaking tanks are better replaced, while faults such as valves, thermostats and heating elements can often be repaired.

What brands do you recommend?

We regularly install Rheem, Rinnai, Dux and Reclaim heat pump systems because of their reliability and availability of parts.
