When to Replace Your Water Heater

Published on March 07, 2017
Should You Replace Your Water Heater 617

Is your water heater in need of replacing? BW/Cook Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning is here with a couple indicators to look for when deciding whether it’s time to buy a new water heating system.

Age

If your water heater receives annual maintenance, you can expect it to last around a decade, depending on the number of people living in your home. Once your water heater hits 10 years, it’s probably time to seriously discuss replacement, especially before a leak occurs.

Rusty Water

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

Weird Noises

Rumbling or knocking sounds coming from your water heater can be a sign that sediment has built up on the base of the tank. This means your equipment will be less efficient and will demand more gas or electricity to heat your water, causing higher water heating bills. It also means that the excess time spent heating your water could produce more damage on your tank, which could cause cracks or leaks.

Water

If you notice water around your water heater tank, you could 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.
