Do you need to hire a professional?

When it comes to replacing your water heater, it’s essential to leave it to the experts. Water heaters are bulky, heavy, and require proper disposal, which cannot be done by simply throwing them in the garbage. Professional plumbers have the tools necessary to remove the old unit and install the new one while ensuring that the old unit is disposed of correctly. A water heater must comply with the energy-efficient standards of your local area, which can change frequently. A professional plumber stays up-to-date with all the codes and standards and can assist you in selecting the appropriate water heater for your home and needs.

When should you replace a water heater?

Typically, it is recommended to replace a water heater if it is more than 10 years old, as this is around the time when they start to deteriorate and become less efficient. However, the lifespan of a water heater can vary depending on factors such as usage, maintenance, and quality of installation. Signs that may indicate it’s time to replace your water heater include a lack of hot water, rusty or metallic-smelling/tasting water, sediment buildup, leaks, and unusual noises such as rattling or hissing. Additionally, upgrading to a more energy-efficient model can help cut down on energy expenses. It is best to consult a professional plumber to assess the condition of your water heater and determine if it needs replacement.

Should I replace my water heater before it fails?

We do recommend replacing your water heater before it fails for two reasons: 1) so you’re not left without hot water until we can get to your home and fix it, and 2) so your current tank doesn’t break or leak causing additional problems throughout the home.
