A homeowner at Belgravia Green recently experienced a power-tripping issue every time their Joven storage water heater was turned on. Concerned about the disruption and potential electrical risk, they contacted Homeone to inspect and repair the unit.
Our technician promptly arrived on-site to carry out a Joven water heater repair and investigate the cause of the power trip. A full assessment of the unit’s electrical and heating components was performed, with a special focus on the internal parts most likely to degrade over time.
Upon removing the heater cover and inspecting the heater, we discovered that the heating element was corroded, covered with rust, and surrounded by traces of water. This type of deterioration often occurs when minor internal leaks go unnoticed, leading to gradual damage of the heating component.
The rust and water exposure had compromised the heating element’s insulation and conductivity. As a result, the system was drawing excess current and tripping the circuit breaker each time it was powered on.
However, the good news was that the Joven water heater was still within its serviceable lifespan, and there were no signs of tank leakage or other major component failures. This allowed us to carry out a cost-effective heating element replacement instead of suggesting a full unit change.
