Local causes of geyser breakdowns
Hard or borewell water
Hard water leaves scale on the heating element and inside the tank, so the geyser can take longer to heat and make crackling sounds. Descaling and checking the anode rod during service helps.
Earthing and wiring
A geyser draws heavy current, so a proper earth connection, the right MCB and good wiring matter. Loose or undersized wiring can heat up, and the technician checks the connection during service.
