Water Heater Repair in Anna, TX
74% of households in Anna heat with electricity. That is the strongest free clue to what kind of water heater is in your basement, and it decides which faults are even possible.
Answer first
Most households in Anna heat with electricity — 74% of them — which is the strongest free clue to what stands in the basement, though the figure counts house heating rather than the water heater itself. An electric unit has two elements and two thermostats and no pilot that can go out.

What Anna runs on
An electric town. That narrows the fault list sharply: elements, thermostats, and the high-limit cut-out that trips and has to be reset by hand.
| Fuel | Share of households |
|---|---|
| Gas — mains and bottled | 25% |
| Electricity | 74% |
| Fuel oil and kerosene | under 1% |
| Everything else | 1% |
Drawn from table B25040 of the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 5-year estimates, 2023 release — 8,061 occupied housing units across Anna.
That sits 16 points lower than the Texas average, which is why we publish the town figure rather than the state one.
One caveat, because it matters: the Census measures the fuel a household heats the HOUSE with, not the fuel it heats WATER with. The two track each other closely — a gas line to the furnace usually feeds the tank as well — but they are not the same number.
Which one do you have
The quick test is the top of the tank. A vent pipe means combustion; no vent means elements. Establish the fuel first; almost every useful question after that depends on it.
Take the symptom next: no hot water, too little, rumbling, or leaking — only the last one is an emergency.
