Why a New Water Heater?
A household water heater’s life expectancy is approximately eight to 12 years. Some hot water heaters last longer than that, and some go out earlier.
There are a few common indicators of a hot water heater that is approaching the end of its operational lifespan.
- Visible water leaks around the tank
- Standing water in your drain pan
- Banging or knocking noises
- Rusty or cloudy hot water
- Hot water that runs out quickly
- Complete lack of hot water
We carry and install both standard and tankless hot water heaters. Traditional water heaters are still the most cost-effective on the front end, but tankless water heaters offer significant energy savings and almost double the operational lifespan. They are also a great way to reduce the “standby loss” that can occur when a traditional hot water tank keeps a full tank of water heated all day, every day. If you live alone or in a smaller home, the extra cost of keeping 40 or 50 gallons of water heated at all times can really add up! With a tankless heater, you and your family will also all be able to take long showers every morning without running out of hot water.
