NO HOT WATER FROM FAUCETS

When you have no hot water in the house, it’s easy to blame the water heater. However, that is not the only cause of a no-hot water problem. If the issue is isolated to certain faucets or rooms then it could be a problem with a faucet!

Sediment buildup can degrade the faucet cartridge and stem which can cause no hot water flow. No matter the problem, our plumbers can find the source and restore your home’s hot water!

HOT WATER HEATER TROUBLES 

No matter if you have an electric water heater or a gas water heater, it can break and stop producing hot water. For a gas hot water heater, the gas supply and gas valve may fail. For electric water heaters, the heating elements or a circuit breaker can cause no hot water.

HOT WATER PLUMBING EMERGENCY

Having a suddenly cold shower is a shock and a plumbing emergency! Hot water is crucial to our day-to-day. Rescue Plumbing provides same-day emergency service for no hot water problems. We can repair your water heater or faucet in no time!

NO HOT WATER IN CHICAGO

In a Chicago winter, a functioning water heater is crucial. A simple fix for a no hot water plumbing emergency is checking the pilot light on a gas water heater, and a heating element on an electric hot water heater. Call Rescue Plumbing if the problem is more complicated!

GAS WATER HEATERS

Gas water heaters are commonly used. These types of water heaters can have problems with the gas supply and the gas valve. If the connection to the tank is disrupted it can even create a gas leak. If you smell rotten egg, you may have a gas leak and you need to call a gas company.

NO HOT WATER IN FAUCET

If a single faucet doesn’t produce hot water, then it is a problem with the faucet fixture. A plumber will need to replace these parts. However, if you just run out of hot water in the middle of hot showers and hot baths that may be due to the water heater tank depleting. We can restore your hot water in no time!

NO HOT WATER IN WHOLE HOUSE

No hot water in the whole house indicates a problem with the water heater. The issue can be anything from a pilot light, a gas leak, or the temperature cutoff switch malfunctioning. Our licensed plumber can diagnose and repair any hot water heater.

ANSWERS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

You have questions, the Rescue Team has answers.

If your home doesn’t have hot water, then it mostly likely is due to your water heater. If you expect hot water and it isn’t flowing, wait about an hour. For storage tank water heaters, the tank can be depleted and you will need to wait for it to warm water again.

If that doesn’t work, check for a tripped circuit breaker and that the pilot light is lit. Sometimes these simple fixes can save you from calling a plumber.

However, if none of this works then its time to call a professional for water heater repair.

If you have no hot water, check your hot water tank for leaks or the smell of gas. A broken gas line or water leak can prevent hot water from flowing in your home.

Any problems with hot water heaters should be repaired by a professional. Rescue Plumbing offers water heater repair and free estimates Monday – Friday 9 am – 5 pm.

When cold water works but not hot water, it’s most likely an issue with the water heater or a cold water valve. Check your water heater pilot light and even the heating setting!

If your water heater has an energy-efficient mode, it may have set too low of a high-temperature cutoff switch heat setting. This may cause lukewarm or cold water to come from the tank.
