Common Water Heater Parts We Replace

Understanding your water heater and its components can help you recognize when a part may be failing. Here are the most commonly replaced water heater parts by CANRO Heating & Cooling:

1. Heating Elements (Electric Water Heaters)

Electric water heaters rely on one or two heating elements to warm water. When these elements burn out, you may experience lukewarm or cold water. We carry replacement elements for all brands and models.

2. Thermocouples and Flame Sensors (Gas Water Heaters)

The thermocouple detects the pilot light and signals the gas valve. A faulty thermocouple can shut down your system. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and replace thermocouples to restore proper function.

3. Thermostats

Both electric and gas water heaters use thermostats to control water temperature. If your water is too hot, too cold, or fluctuating, the thermostat might be the issue.

4. Anode Rods

These rods prevent tank corrosion by attracting minerals and impurities in the water. Over time, they degrade and must be replaced to extend the life of your tank.

5. Dip Tubes

A broken dip tube can cause lukewarm water at the top of your tank. Replacing it is a quick and affordable fix.

6. Gas Control Valves

These regulate the flow of gas to the burner. A malfunctioning gas control valve may prevent your water heater from igniting.

7. Pressure Relief Valves (TPR Valves)

This safety component releases excess pressure from the tank. If it’s leaking or stuck, it must be replaced to avoid potential tank rupture.

8. Pilot Assembly Components

For gas heaters, issues with the pilot light may stem from faulty assemblies, which include the ignitor, thermocouple, and pilot tubing.

9. Blower Motors and Venting Fans (Power Vent Models)

If your water heater uses a power vent system, we can replace failed motors and vent fans to ensure proper exhaust and efficiency.

10. Tankless Water Heater Parts

We stock and install essential parts for tankless systems, including ignition packs, heat exchangers, flow sensors, and control boards.
