Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhy 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.

If your water heater is not producing hot water, first confirm power or gas supply and basic settings, then schedule service if those checks don’t restore heat. The most common cause is a tripped electrical breaker or an extinguished pilot light; failed heating elements, ignition faults, or heavy mineral scale can also stop heating. Loss of hot water is common and usually repairable, while severe corrosion or a tank body leak often points to replacement. Our licensed team serves homes around Dayton with code-compliant diagnostics, repairs, and installations, including 24/7 emergency response when you need it most. On tankless systems, scale can fool flow sensors and block ignition until the unit is flushed.
Try these quick checks before calling:
- Electric: reset the breaker and on-unit switch; press the red reset on the upper thermostat.
- Gas: ensure the gas valve is on; relight the pilot per the unit label; if you smell gas, stop and call immediately.
- Settings: verify the temperature isn’t turned down and vacation/safe mode is off.
- Tankless: note error codes, clean the inlet screen, and power-cycle the unit.
If a leak is active, turn off the cold-water inlet and the unit’s power or gas before seeking professional help. <br/> Updated: 2026-04-04 <br/> Need help in Dayton, IN?

There isn’t a single “typical” price for water heater repair, because cost depends on the issue, parts, and unit type (tank or tankless). A Summers technician will diagnose the problem on site and give you an upfront price before any work starts. For maintenance or a checkup, we offer a Water Heater Flush + Plumbing Inspection for $59. We handle leaks, burners/elements, valves, noises, and temperature issues, with 24/7 emergency response in Lafayette and West Lafayette.
