Nothing is worse than stepping into the shower on a freezing Michigan morning only to discover the water is barely warm. Showering or performing household tasks like washing dishes with lukewarm water is uncomfortable and often a sign that your water heater might have a problem. The longer the issue goes unchecked, the more likely it is to worsen.
Wondering who to call for water heater repair in Michigan? Randazzo Heating, Cooling, and Electrical provides expert water heater repair across Southeast Michigan, helping homeowners and businesses restore reliable hot water quickly and safely.
Common Causes of Lukewarm Water
Several issues can prevent your water heater from heating water properly, including:
- Sediment buildup: Minerals collect at the bottom of the tank, creating a barrier between the burner and the water. This barrier lowers water temperature and could potentially increase your energy bills.
- Faulty heating element (electric models): A failing heating element won’t heat water to the proper temperature.
- Broken dip tube: This part of your heater pushes cold water to the bottom of the tank, where it’s heated. When the dip tube breaks, cold water gets “dumped” at the top of your tank and will be moved back into your appliances and faucets while lukewarm.
- Thermostat issues: If the thermostat malfunctions, your system will not heat to your chosen setting.
- Gas burner problems (gas models): Dirt or damage reduces efficiency, slowing heating.
- Undersized water heater: Your tank may be too small to meet household demand.
