Water heater questions
Quick answers before you get matched.
Is my water heater worth repairing?
Check its age, what failed and whether the tank leaks. A failed part on a newer heater is usually worth fixing; a leaking tank is not. A plumber can confirm.
My water heater is leaking. What do I do right now?
Switch off the breaker or set the gas control to OFF, then close the cold-water valve above the tank. If water is spreading, shut off the main valve, then get matched.
Is a water heater leak the City of Phoenix's problem?
No. The city says problems after the water meter are the homeowner's, and a heater sits after it. A leak in the street is the city's: call 602-261-8000.
How can I tell how old my water heater is?
Check the label on the tank. The serial number encodes the date it was made, and a plumber can decode it if the label is hard to read.
