Why Isn't My Water Heater Working?

We service most models, including Bradford White and AO Smith, and we’ll always look for a fix before recommending a replacement.
When Should I Replace My Water Heater?
Sometimes, a water heater is beyond repair and needs to be replaced. If your unit is over eight years old or you’re experiencing frequent issues, it might be time for a new one. Lohmeyer Plumbing specializes in replacing outdated or malfunctioning water heaters. We help you choose the right size and model for your home and budget, providing a seamless and hassle-free replacement process.
What's the Process for Installing a New Water Heater?
Whether you’re replacing an old system or building a new home, we’ll make sure your new water heater is safely installed, up to code, and sized right for your family’s needs. We offer both standard and tankless options.
What Kind of Water Heater Do I Have?
Most homes have a tank-style water heater, which stores and heats water in a large insulated tank. These are the most common type and typically last around 8 years. Here's what you should know:
- Available in gas or electric
- Come in different sizes 40 and 50 gallon tanks are the most common
- Some gas models are power vent water heaters, which require special venting
- Include a steel tank with a glass lining to help prevent corrosion
- Use an anode rod for added protection against rust
- Come with a standard 6-year warranty (longer warranties usually just mean extended coverage — not a different build)
Knowing your water heater’s type, fuel source, and capacity before your appointment helps us bring the right repair parts or replacement unit. If you're not sure, you can snap a couple of pictures and text them to us. We can usually identify everything from there.
If you’re an existing customer, we may already have your water heater details saved in your account.
Or you might have a tankless water heater.
Instead of storing hot water in a tank, tankless systems heat water only when you need it. They’re more compact and energy-efficient, and they can last longer than standard tank models.
If you're not sure which type you have, or if you're curious about the pros and cons of switching, check out our tankless water heater page or just give us a call. We’re happy to help you figure it out.
