Water Heaters Questions from Rockwell
Common causes are a tripped breaker, a failed heating element or a bad thermostat. Check the breaker first. If it trips again, leave it off and call us. Mineral buildup from well water can also wear out elements faster. We test the parts and replace the one that failed.

Rockwell is about 15 miles from our base in Landis, roughly 25 minutes east on NC 152 from China Grove. That puts it inside our regular service area. When you call, tell us your street and the problem so we can plan the visit and bring the right parts.
Popping or rumbling usually means sediment has built up on the bottom of the tank. Water trapped under the sediment boils and pops as the burner heats it. Flushing the tank can help if the buildup is caught early. On an older unit, it can be a sign the tank is wearing out.
