Change in colour can also be a sign. If your hot water colour is just not as clear as it used to be when turning on the hot water.
This means the burner or burner system in your unit is just not efficient anymore causing your system delays in heating up your water hence why at times you get sudden cold snaps in the shower or whilst using hot water in your home.
