Does Your Water Heater Need Repair?

Not having hot water is often why many people call us. But you don’t always have to wait until you can’t get any hot water at all to call a professional for help. Some other signs that your water heater unit is failing or needs repair include:

  • Inconsistent water temperatures
  • Strange noises from the tank, such as rumbling, popping, or banging sounds
  • Discolored or rusty water
  • Higher energy bills
  • Slow water heating
  • Frequent repairs
  • Leaks around the unit

From faulty heating elements to broken thermostats, we’re equipped to repair every type of water heater issue possible. We also understand the water heater issues that can specifically affect properties in Morrisville, such as:

  • Aging water heater units in more established neighborhoods
  • Wake County water hardness can lead to mineral deposits in water heaters (reducing efficiency)
  • Heavy work-from-home water demands near the tech corridor (Research Triangle Park)

Our Inspection & Water Heater Service Process

Once a Call Red Truck Plumbing professional arrives at your property, we’ll start with a comprehensive assessment. During this inspection, we’ll evaluate the potential cause of your water heater problem and identify other important factors, such as energy sources, space constraints, and your household’s water usage.

We make every effort to repair your existing water heater to help save you money. However, water heaters have an average lifespan of 8 to 12 years. If your unit is nearing the end of its lifespan, it may not make financial sense to invest in a repair. We may recommend a replacement to help ensure you have lasting hot water for many years to come.

Upgrading to a Tankless Water Heater System

Many properties in the area have traditional water heater systems that were installed many years ago. As these units begin to fail or near the end of their lifespan, homeowners are opting to upgrade to newer, tankless water heater systems. In our region, many homes near RTP with several adults working from home are choosing to upgrade to tankless water heater systems to better meet their demands.

Call Red Truck Plumbing can help you identify the best energy-efficient tankless system for your property based on your unique water usage needs. Some benefits of upgrading to a tankless water heater include:

  • Space-saving design that can be helpful for smaller homes or apartments
  • Endless hot water, allowing households to run multiple appliances (washer, dishwasher, shower) all at once without worrying about no hot water
  • Lower energy bills

Frequently Asked Questions

You Have Questions, We Have Answers

At Call Red Truck Plumbing, we know you have questions about plumbing repair and service. That is why we gathered the top questions asked by local home and business owners.

Do I need a permit to replace my water heater in Morrisville?
Yes. Replacing a water heater involves gas or electrical connections and plumbing code compliance, which requires a permit from the Town of Morrisville. As your licensed plumbing partner, we handle the entire permitting and municipal inspection process so you don’t have to worry about code enforcement.
Not every home is “tankless-ready.” High-efficiency tankless units often require a 3/4″ gas line, whereas many older Morrisville homes were plumbed with 1/2″ lines. During our assessment, we perform a gas load calculation to see if your system needs a line upgrade or if a high-efficiency power-vented tank is a more cost-effective alternative.
When water heats up, it expands. In modern “closed” plumbing systems, this pressure has nowhere to go and can damage your heater’s relief valve or cause pipe leaks. We install a thermal expansion tank on every replacement to protect your home’s infrastructure and keep your manufacturer’s warranty valid.
Yes. Wake County water contains minerals that create “scale” buildup on heating elements and inside tanks, forcing the heater to work harder and fail prematurely. If you have hard water, we recommend installing a scale-inhibitor filter or a water softener alongside your new unit to double its effective lifespan.
This is often a “cold water sandwich” effect or a flow-restriction issue. If your home has low-flow fixtures, the tankless sensor might not trigger correctly. We calibrate your system’s flow settings to ensure consistent temperatures, even during multi-fixture use in large family homes.
