When Is It Time To Replace Your Water Heater?
Most installations our Richmond plumbing technicians perform are to replace old, damaged, or broken water heaters with newer models. Like any appliance, the energy efficiency and reliability of water heaters diminish over time. Most water heaters have an average lifespan of about 10 to 15 years. After this time, it is often more cost-effective and efficient to replace the water heater than to repair the unit.
Signs That It Is Time To Replace The Water Heater Include:
- Leaks – Older water heaters may begin to leak. This can cause water damage around the water heater and can lead to mold growth. The problem should be addressed as soon as it is noticed.
- Rust colored water – The inside of the water heater can get rusty, leading to rust-colored water flowing from faucets. When this rusty water is limited to hot water, the problem is generally in the water heater and not a pipe.
- Loud banging noises – When you start hearing loud banging noises from your water heater the cause may be sediment building up and hardening in the tank.
- Age – If your water heater is more than 10 to 15 years old, it may be time to replace the unit.

Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters
Unsure if a tankless water heater is the best fit for you and your household? Not sure if the pros outweigh the cons? Below we have a few of the major benefits that come with installing a tankless water heater in your home.
-
Energy Efficient -
A lot of time, cost is what is stopping people from tankless water heaters. But, tankless water heaters are anywhere from 24% to 34% more energy efficient than your traditional water heater. This means that your energy bill would be dramatically lower than with a tank water heater. -
Longer Lifespan -
Tankless water heaters typically last twice as long as the traditional water heater counterparts. This means that a tankless water heater can last up to 20 years if properly maintained and taken care of. -
Instant Hot Water -
One major benefit of tankless water heaters is that they can create an endless supply of hot water and do it almost instantly. This not only means your household can experience hot water right away, but it also saves you on energy costs. Traditional water heaters need to heat the entire tank before it can provide you with any hot water.
Water heaters are available in tank and tankless versions. Traditional tank water heaters have an insulated tank with a capacity of between 25 and 50 gallons. Tankless water heaters provide hot water on demand, which reduces energy consumption, utility bills, and take up less space. We install both tank and tankless water heaters in Richmond and the surrounding areas.
