Use our Checklist to troubleshoot problems:

Below is a quick checklist for you to troubleshoot any problems you may experience with your gas water heating. However, remember that any gas hot water repairs and replacement needs to be done by a qualified technician. This is for your safety, but, also, it is sensible because uncertified work may make your house unsellable and it can void the warranty on the fitting or appliance.

If you have absolutely no hot water, then it could either be because the pilot light has gone out, or because the gas supply has been turned off or that the gas valve needs replacement. Follow your owner’s manual when checking the pilot light and gas supply, but do not touch the gas valve, as this requires expert knowledge.

If you do not have enough hot water or it takes too long to reheat water then it could be because the thermostat is too low and needs to be turned up, or due to a build up of sediment in tank, or you could have low gas pressure, or your water heater may not be powerful enough. Again, refer to your owner’s manual before checking the thermostat, and remember never to turn it up too hot as you may burn yourself. The other issues require a skilled technician, so call Fallon Services.

Sometimes people complain that the hot water smells, this can be caused by a faulty anode, so give Fallon Services a ring and they will come out and have a look.

Another problem that people have with their gas hot water is that the cylinder is noisy. Often this is not because of any particular problem, it is just a part of the normal noise. However, if you are concerned that this is not a normal noise, or it has just become noisy, then it could be caused a build up of sediment in the tank causing steam pockets or from condensation dripping onto the burner. The best thing to do is call a qualified technician as they will be able to tell you whether it is a normal or abnormal noise.

Remember, whatever the problem, all gas hot water repairs and replacement need to be done by a qualified technician.
