Is Your Hot Water on the Fritz? Here’s What to Watch For
A failing water heater can leave you without hot water or cause damage if ignored. At Olympic Plumbing Technology, we help Olympia homeowners recognize the warning signs early, before you’re stuck with a cold shower or a flooded utility room. If any of these issues sound familiar, it’s time to schedule service:
-
Inconsistent or No Hot Water: If your water runs cold quickly or never gets warm, your unit may need repair or replacement.
-
Strange Noises From the Tank: Rumbling, popping, or banging sounds can mean sediment buildup or internal damage.
-
Rusty or Discolored Water: Corrosion inside the tank can cause rust-colored water and signal tank failure.
-
Water Leaks Around the Base: Leaking around the unit often points to a crack or failing seal that needs urgent attention.
-
Fluctuating Water Pressure: Poor or uneven flow from hot taps can be tied to water heater or line issues.
-
Unit Age Over 10 Years: Older systems are more prone to failure and usually less energy-efficient — routine checks are essential.

Gaige was incredibly patient he went above and beyond to restore hot water to our home. He had wonderful customer service was never pushy to sell us a new unit and spent hours trying to fix the existing one. We ended up having him install a tank less water heater and he did a really great job making it look nice and showing up when he said he would which is rare these days.

Both Sarah's in the office and Nick were absolutely great. They were willing to come out to my house which is out of their typical area. Nick arrived on time, was very professional and diligent.

Nate was very helpful. We have old polybutylene PEX and the Shark Bite end cap did not stem the water flow after I installed. Nate suggested that I try and find an end cap with the polybutylene fitting. I tried every big box, plumbing supply store and hardware store I could think of - to no avail. Nate fixed it and we're good now.
