When to Replace Your Water Heater

Is it time to replace your water heater? Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing is here with a couple signals to look for when determining whether it’s time to purchase a new water heating system.

Age

If your water heater has routine maintenance, you can expect it to operate around 10 years, depending on the number of occupants in a home. Once your water heater is 10 years, it’s likely time to seriously discuss replacement, especially before a leak occurs.

Rusty Water

If the water from your water heater (hot side pipes) is flowing out rusty, it could be a sign that your water heater is rusting on the inside. This could produce a leak, not to mention impure water. Call an expert plumber to have them check if your water heater system is getting ready to fail on you.

Odd Noises

Booming or knocking sounds coming from your water heater can be a signal that deposit has built up on the bottom of the tank. This means your water heater will be less efficient and will have to use more gas or electricity to heat your water, resulting in higher water heating bills. It also means that the additional time spent heating your water could produce more damage on your tank, leading to cracks or leaks.

Water

If you see water around your water heater tank, you might have a leak. Call an expert plumber to come out and examine your equipment and they can provide you a quote on a new water heater if necessary.
