Recognizing the Signs of Water Heater Problems
Many homeowners contact Power Pro Plumbing when they notice early warning signs that their water heater may be failing. These signs often include:
- Insufficient Hot Water: A sudden drop in water temperature or quantity may indicate issues with the thermostat, heating element, or sediment buildup.
- Unusual Noises: Rumbling, popping, or whining sounds are often linked to sediment accumulation or component failure.
- Leaking Tank: Water at the base of the unit may signal a crack in the tank or faulty valves—prompt inspection is critical.
- Rusty or Discolored Water: This could suggest internal corrosion, requiring a system replacement.
- Foul Odors: A sulfur-like smell might be due to bacterial interaction with the anode rod.
- System Age: Units over 10–15 years old are more prone to issues and less energy efficient.
Responding to these indicators with prompt, professional Water Heater Repair can prevent costly replacements and restore your system’s performance. Power Pro Plumbing technicians accurately diagnose faults—whether it’s a pilot light issue, thermostat failure, or valve malfunction—and carry out safe, code-compliant repairs.
Upgrading Your System with Water Heater Installation & Replacement
When repair is no longer cost-effective or when energy efficiency becomes a priority, Water Heater Installation & Replacement is the smart move. At Power Pro Plumbing, we guide Placentia homeowners through every step of the upgrade process, ensuring the new unit meets performance expectations and fits household demands.
Factors to Consider When Selecting a New Water Heater
- Size: Choose based on FHR for tank units or flow rate and temperature rise for tankless units to ensure sufficient capacity.
- Fuel Type: Options include natural gas, propane, electricity, and solar. We'll help you assess your existing hookups and local utility costs.
- Energy Efficiency: Look for Energy Star–rated models that promise lower long-term energy bills.
- Tank vs. Tankless: Tank systems store heated water; tankless systems provide hot water on demand with higher upfront investment but greater efficiency.

Our installations ensure correct water and fuel connections, safe venting, and accurate thermostat settings to avoid performance issues or voided warranties.
