WHEN TO REPLACE YOUR HOT WATER HEATER

You might take your water heater for granted until the hot water stops flowing from your taps. Thankfully, you make sure this doesn’t happen by keeping an eye on your water heater’s health. Watch for these common signs that you should prepare to budget for a replacement.

MORE THAN 6 YEARS OLD

You should start thinking about swapping out your hot water heater sometime after its sixth year of service. Gas versions often need to be switched out every 6 to 8 years, while electric varieties can perform reliably for about eight to 10 years. Consider a tankless model for your next heater, as it uses less energy and can last up to 20 years.

CHECK FOR RUST AND CORROSION

Rust in your water is a bad sign. However, you should also look for rust or corrosion near temperature and pressure relief valves, as well as the water inlet and outlet connections on your tank. Eventually, the rusting or corrosion will lead to leaks.

NO HOT WATER

Like any other appliance, your hot water heater can benefit from a regular maintenance and replacement schedule. Keeping an eye on its health is crucial so that you’re not taken by surprise. Contact East Coast Plumbing Co. Inc. to schedule water heater replacement service today.
