Is It an Emergency?
Water leaking from the tank itself is an emergency. Close the cold water valve on top of the heater, turn off the gas or power, and call.
No hot water is not dangerous, but in a York winter it is hard to live with. A plumber can often fix a gas valve, igniter or element the same day.
Common Water Heater Problems
| Symptom | Likely cause | | No hot water (gas) | Pilot, thermocouple or gas valve | | No hot water (electric) | Element or thermostat | | Runs out fast | Sediment or failed element | | Rumbling or popping | Sediment in the tank | | Rusty water | Corroded tank or anode rod | | Water under the tank | Valve, fitting or tank leak |

Call (717) 402-9746Repair or Replace?
Repair makes sense when a single part fails on a tank that is not leaking. Replace the heater when the tank itself leaks, the water is rusty, or the unit is old and failing often. Many tank heaters last around 8 to 12 years.
Basement water heaters are common in York, so a leaking tank can damage stored items and finished rooms quickly.
What to Do Right Now
1. Close the cold water supply valve above the heater. 2. Turn the gas control to off, or switch off the breaker for an electric unit. 3. If you smell gas, leave and call your gas utility or 911 from outside. 4. Keep people away from hot water and the area around the tank. 5. Move stored items out of the way.
Ask a local plumber about repair or replacement.
