Why Is My Water Heater Not Heating Up Despite Resetting the Button?

Resetting usually won’t fix no‑heat if a fault remains. Common causes are a failed burner/heating element, a bad thermostat, an unlit pilot, or heavy sediment that insulates the water. Our licensed techs service and replace water heaters across Lafayette and West Lafayette, including 24/7 emergencies and same‑day installs.

Quick checks:

  • Confirm the pilot is lit (gas) or note error lights.
  • Listen for rumbling that suggests sediment.
  • If the unit is ~10–15 years old, replacement may be wiser.
