  • Rusty or Murky Water: Discolored water from your hot taps might indicate corrosion inside the tank.

  • Water Around the Heater: Even small leaks can become a big problem. If you notice water near your heater, it’s time to call in the experts.

Fountain Water Heater Replacement

While repairs are often a great option, sometimes a replacement is the most cost-effective solution—especially if your water heater is reaching the end of its lifespan.

  • Frequent Repairs
  • Higher Energy Bills
  • Not Enough Hot Water

Our team will help you select the right model for your home and budget. We understand replacement is a handsome investment, but don’t worry about the budget. We offer custom financing options. You select the best-fit model for your home and pay in installments.

  • Tankless Water Heaters are perfect for smaller homes or families looking to save on energy costs. They provide hot water on demand without the need to keep a tank of water hot all day.
  • Hybrid Water Heaters: Combining tank and tankless technology, hybrid units offer the best of both worlds by maximizing efficiency while maintaining a steady hot water supply.

Are you unsure which is right for you? Call us at (719) 408-3188, and we’ll help you understand your options.

Water Heater Maintenance

Routine maintenance is the key to extending the life of your water heater and avoiding costly repairs down the road. Here’s what you can do to keep your unit in top shape:

  1. Flush the Tank Regularly: Sediment can accumulate at the bottom of the tank, leading to efficiency issues and potential damage. Flushing your water heater annually will help prevent this.
  2. Check the Anode Rod: This rod helps prevent rust inside your tank. Checking and replacing it as needed can add years to your water heater’s life.
  3. Insulate the Tank: Adding insulation around the tank and pipes can improve efficiency and reduce energy costs.
  4. Schedule Professional Maintenance: A professional inspection can catch minor issues before they become big problems, saving you money and stress.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I know if my water heater needs repair instead of replacement?

If your water heater is under 10 years old and experiencing issues like inconsistent hot water, strange noises, or minor leaks, repair is often the best option. However, if it’s older, constantly breaking down, or leaking from the tank itself, replacement might be more cost-effective.

2. What are the most common signs my water heater needs repair?

Look out for signs like no hot water, water that takes too long to heat, discolored or rusty water, odd noises (popping or rumbling), and water pooling around the base of the unit. These typically indicate problems like sediment buildup, a faulty heating element, or a failing pressure relief valve.

3. Is it safe to repair a water heater myself?

Water heater repairs can involve gas lines, electricity, and pressurized tanks—all of which pose serious safety risks if handled improperly. For your safety and to ensure the issue is properly diagnosed and fixed, it’s best to call our licensed Fountain water heater repair professionals.

4. How long does a typical water heater repair in Fountain take?

Most repairs can be completed within 1 to 2 hours, depending on the issue. Common fixes like replacing a thermostat, heating element, or valve are usually quick. More complex issues may take longer but are typically resolved the same day.

5. Will repairing my water heater improve energy efficiency?

Yes—fixing issues like a faulty thermostat or sediment buildup can help your water heater run more efficiently. When your system doesn’t have to work as hard to heat water, it uses less energy, which can reduce utility bills and extend the unit’s lifespan.
