Newport Water Heater Repair FAQs
When is repair preferable to replacement?
Age and condition determine the answer. Water heaters under 10 years with isolated issues typically warrant repair. Units past 12 years, especially with leaks or corrosion, often make replacement smarter. GEM’s plumbers assess your situation and offer honest guidance.
Does GEM work on all water heater brands?
Yes. Our Newport team services all major brands of traditional tank water heaters. Electric or gas, our licensed plumbers diagnose quickly and restore hot water.
What causes complete hot water failure?
Total loss usually stems from element burnout, thermostat malfunction, sediment blockage, or power issues. GEM technicians identify the cause and restore operation.
Why does my water heater make rumbling sounds?
Sediment at the tank bottom creates rumbling during heating. Minerals accumulate over time, trapping heat and causing uneven boiling. Regular maintenance prevents this.
My water heater is leaking – what should I do?
Shut the supply valve above the tank first, then cut power at the breaker or gas valve. Call GEM immediately. Leaks indicate loose fittings or tank failure. Our team offers same-day Newport service and recommends the best solution.
