Signs You Need to Replace Your Water Heater

Most water heaters typically last for about a decade, so if your water heater is 8-12 years old, it will likely need to be replaced soon. It's important to have a professional come and perform a maintenance service on your water heater once a year to look for potential problems before they become larger issues, as well as to keep it lasting as long as possible. If your water heater is about to fail, there are a few signs to look out for:

Common signs your water heater needs to be replaced:

  • Not enough hot water - your water heater is not providing you with enough hot water to last through a shower, or simply fails to produce any hot water at all.
  • Rust colored water - sometimes older water heater tanks can begin to rust on the inside, causing rust colored water to come out of your faucets. If you notice rusty water, give us a call!
  • Strange noises - if something is wrong with your water heater it may begin to emit louder than normal banging or rumbling noises when it turns on. You should call for a professional to take a look if you notice any noises out of the ordinary.
  • Leaking tank - if your tank has sprung a leak, the unit will likely need to be replaced depending on the severity of the leak and how old your water heater is.

Reasons to Replace Your Water Heater Before It Fails

Water heaters aren't exactly the cheapest of appliances. However, they are extremely crucial to your daily routine. At Sage Plumbers, we understand your reluctance to invest in a new water heater before it completely fails. While you may want to get the most bang for your buck from your current unit, waiting until the last minute to replace your water heater can pose serious problems.

Our Lake Forest, CA water heater replacement specialists suggest that you buy a new unit before your current one fails because:

  • As your water heater ages, it becomes less and less efficient. A new water heater will be more efficient, which will save you money on your utility bills--giving you a good return on your investment
  • You won't have to make a quick decision to immediately replace a failed unit. Now, you'll have time to decide between a tank or tankless unit or whether you want a gas or electric powered water heater.
  • You won't have to worry about water damage as a result of a corroded tank.
  • You won't have to worry about not having hot water and can carefully plan for the best time to schedule the replacement

Tank vs. Tankless Water Heaters

Tank-style water heaters are still the most common source of residential and commercial water heating today—primarily because of their lower installation cost. In fact, most homes five years or older are outfitted for a tank-style water heater. However, tankless water heating technology also provides customers with a variety of benefits over tank water heaters. At Sage Plumbers, we are happy to assess your needs and provide you with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision as to whether a standard tank or tankless water heater meets your needs.

Do Tankless Water Heaters Run Out of Hot Water?

A tankless water heater does not rely on a source of stored water like a traditional water heater with a tank. Tankless systems work by heating water as it passes through the unit. This means that your home will have an endless supply of hot water as long as the system doesn't get overwhelmed. It is possible for a tankless water heater to become overwhelmed if too many appliances or faucets are requiring hot water at once.

Benefits of tankless water heaters:

  • Unlimited supply of hot water
  • Gas savings and rebates
  • Space savings
  • Longevity

As with all of our work, you may rest assured that all of our water heater installations in Lake Forest, CA and the surrounding areas are done to highest quality and comply with all applicable building and plumbing codes.
