When You Should Replace Your Water Heater
Recognizing the signs of a water heater that needs replacement is essential to prevent potential issues and disruptions. When the signs point to the need for a new water heater, it’s important to entrust the replacement to skilled professionals. MB Heating & Cooling specializes in water heater replacement services, guaranteeing a perfect installation that meets your household’s hot water needs. Our experienced technicians are equipped to assess your current system, recommend the appropriate replacement unit, and perform the installation precisely. Here are some common indicators that it’s time to consider replacing your water heater:
Age of the Unit
Water heaters don’t last forever. Tank models last 10-15 years and tankless models last over 20 years. With age, they lose efficiency, leading to energy waste and decreased performance.
Rusty or Discolored Water
Discolored water from faucets may indicate corrosion in the water tank, which harms water quality and endangers the tank’s structure, creating the risk of leaks and water damage.
Tank Leaks
Water leaks around the heater or near the unit indicate the need for replacement. Leaks from the tank itself are typically irreparable and can lead to extensive damage if left unaddressed.
Inadequate Performance
If your water heater is no longer providing consistently hot water or the water temperature fluctuates unpredictably, it could be a sign of a failing heating element or thermostat.
Water Heater Repair
A properly functioning water heater is essential for daily household tasks providing the comfort of hot water for bathing, cleaning, and other activities. Even the most reliable water heaters can experience issues over time. When the water that usually flows easily and in abundance starts to become slower than usual, it could indicate a problem with the water heater. If the water from your faucets starts to become brown and murky in color or has a foul smell, it may be a sign of corrosion or bacterial growth within the tank supply. If you’re hearing strange popping, cracking, or rumbling that usually means there is possible sediment buildup or mineral deposits in your tank. Another common warning sign of repair is leaking or fluctuating hot water around your tank. Leaking can originate from valves, pipes or even the tank itself. Inconsistent hot water could indicate issues with the heating element or thermostat.
