Q: How do hot water heater expansion tanks work?

• <div><p>When the water expands in a hot water heater, it puts pressure on your hot water pipes and can cause leaks or a rupture in the hot water tank under certain conditions. Pipes or water heaters may split due to the pressure where there is a backflow preventer that prevents the hot water heater from diffusing pressure by releasing water back to the public water line.</p><p>In these scenarios, a hot water heater expansion tank provides a place for the hot water heater to relieve pressure and prevent bursts and leaks.</p></div>

Q: Why is there no hot water in my shower?

• <div><p>There are many issues that can cause cold showers, but the most likely is a problem with your water heater, especially if other fixtures also don&rsquo;t get hot water. If it&rsquo;s just your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/shower-water-cold-but-sink-hot.htm">shower not getting hot water</a>, you likely have a broken or damaged shower cartridge. You can replace this yourself or hire a plumber to do the work for you if you&rsquo;re not comfortable working with plumbing.</p></div>

Q: Can you switch from a tank to a tankless water heater?

• <div><p>Going from a tank to a tankless water heater is one of the most effective ways to lower your utility bills. The switch also frees up more space and ensures a consistent hot water supply, as the water is heated on an as-needed basis. It costs between <b>$5,400 and $7,400</b> to install a new tankless water heater. Most installation companies will also help dispose of your old water tank.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to replace my water heater?

• <div><p>Whether to repair or replace your water heater is determined by your water heater&rsquo;s age and condition. If you have an older model reaching the end of its life expectancy or if your water heater has been having problems more frequently than usual, replacement might serve you better. If you&rsquo;ve been thinking about <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/is-a-tankless-water-heater-worth-it.htm">upgrading to a tankless water heater</a>, then you may not want to spend any further on repairing your old one, either.</p></div>

Q: Are hybrid water heaters noisy?

• <div><p>Yes, hybrid water heaters can be noisy &mdash; noisier than traditional water heaters. The sound they produce is often compared to the hum of a dishwasher. Its noise comes from the heat pump&rsquo;s fan and compressor as they work to pull in and compress the air. While it&rsquo;s not totally disruptive, especially if the unit is installed in less frequented areas, like a basement or garage, it&rsquo;s something to keep in mind if you&rsquo;re sensitive to noise or if the unit will be placed near bedrooms or living spaces.</p></div>
