Water Heater Replacement in Temerin and Surrounding Areas – What You Need to Know
A functional water heater is essential in every household, yet most malfunctions occur unexpectedly — especially in homes across Temerin, Sirig, Bački Jarak, and Gospođinci, where many families still use older-generation heaters.
This guide explains why water heaters fail, which issues can be repaired, and when replacement is the safest and most cost-effective solution.
Why do water heaters often fail?
The most common reasons in this region include:
1. Hard water and limescale
Water in Temerin and surrounding villages contains a high level of minerals, which leads to:
- limescale buildup on the heating element
- slower water heating
- overheating and burnout of the element
- internal tank damage
2. Worn-out electrical components
Thermostats, heating elements, wiring, and safety components degrade over time.
3. Tank corrosion
After 8–12 years, corrosion becomes the main cause of leaks and internal failure.
4. Faulty safety valve
If excess pressure is not released, the tank may deform or fail.
5. Poor or improper installation
Common in older houses in Temerin and surrounding areas.
Signs that your water heater is failing
- no hot water or only lukewarm water
- strange noises: hissing, popping, cracking
- circuit breaker trips when heater is turned on
- burning smell
- visible leakage or dripping
- thermostat light does not behave normally
Any of these symptoms require immediate inspection.
When can the water heater be repaired?
Repair is usually possible when:
- heating element is burnt out
- thermostat is not responding
- wiring or contacts are oxidized
- safety valve is dripping
- heavy limescale buildup
These issues do not require full replacement.
When does the heater need to be replaced?
Replacement is necessary when:
- the tank is leaking (irreversible damage)
- rust and cracks are visible
- electrical damage after overheating
- the unit is older than 10 years with recurring failures
- water is leaking from the bottom of the heater
- thermostat does not shut off (risk of overheating)
In these cases, repairs are unsafe and short-lived.
