Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhy Is My Water Heater Not Heating Up Despite Resetting the Button?
If the reset button didn’t restore hot water, the issue is likely mineral/sediment buildup, a burner or venting problem, or a clogged tankless filter rather than a simple trip. Doc Dancer services both traditional and tankless systems in Fort Wayne and nearby areas. We flush tanks, descale tankless units, inspect burners and venting, and check for leaks or corrosion as part of diagnostic and maintenance visits.
Quick checks:
- For tankless: clean inlet filters and note any error code.
- For tanks: listen for rumbling that suggests sediment.
- Look for visible leaks or corrosion.

Shut off power and water, then schedule service. A top leak often comes from loose inlet/outlet connections, the temperature and pressure (T&P) valve, or the anode rod port. Doc Dancer provides same-day water heater repair and works on both traditional and tankless systems. We serve Fort Wayne, New Haven, and nearby communities.
Quick steps:
- Turn off breaker (electric) or set gas to pilot.
- Close the cold-water supply valve.
- Dry the top and look for seepage at fittings/valves.
- Call a licensed plumber for diagnosis and repair.

Shut off the water and power, then schedule service. A bottom leak often means a failing tank or drain valve, and our licensed plumbers can repair or replace traditional or tankless units in the greater Fort Wayne area, often with same-day service.
Quick steps:
- Turn the cold-water shutoff valve to Off.
- Electric: switch the breaker Off. Gas: set the gas control to Off.
- Keep the area clear and place a bucket or towels to contain water.

Most homeowners shouldn’t install a water heater themselves. Our licensed plumbers handle sizing, fuel and venting, permits and safety checks, and final testing so your system runs safely and correctly. We work on gas, electric, propane, and hybrid units, and install brands like Rheem, Bradford White, A.O. Smith, Navien, Rinnai, and Noritz. Professional installation follows manufacturer standards for safety, performance, and warranty protection. Same-day repairs are available in many cases in Fort Wayne, New Haven, and Auburn.
