Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhy Is My Water Heater Not Heating Up Despite Resetting the Button?
Resetting the button won’t restore heat if the root cause remains. Common causes include a tripped high‑limit switch from overheating, failed thermostat or heating element (electric), pilot/ignition or gas supply issues (gas), or heavy sediment that insulates the burner. Ken’s Plumbing can diagnose and fix leaks, replace elements/thermostats, and flush sediment. We’re available 24/7 in Greenville, SC.
Quick checks:
- Verify the breaker or gas shutoff is on.
- Don’t keep pressing reset if it trips again.
- Look for leaks or corrosion.
- Note any error lights/codes.

Turn off power or gas, close the cold-water valve on top, and call Ken’s Plumbing for fast service. A top leak often points to inlet/outlet fittings, the T&P valve connection, or the anode/vent area. We handle leak repairs, flushing, anode-rod replacement, and full replacements, and we’re available 24/7. Service is local to Greenville and nearby cities like Greer and Simpsonville.
Quick steps:
- Electric: switch off breaker. Gas: set control to off.
- Close the cold-water shutoff valve.
- Clean up water and note where the drip starts.
