Sometimes these appliances give out some warning signs that you as a homeowner should notice before the issue becomes too big.

On and off-cycle very frequent
If the heater constantly changes from on and off position, you have to check it out. It is usual for a heater to auto cut-off every 15-20 minutes. But if the cycle is very frequent, like every 5 minutes or so, then you have to arrange for a service. This can be dangerous if not checked.
