Water Heater Replacement

Facing a water heater replacement project? Here’s what to expect with Sav-On Plumbing on your side.

Water heater replacement is a tedious part of owning your home. But there will come a time when your showers no longer feel hot enough. Maybe your dishes don’t come out as clean as they used to. You may notice an increase in your water bills while your hot water supply diminishes. Have you seen any problems like these cropping up at your home? The culprit behind these types of problems is often a failing water heater.

If you follow your water heater’s specific maintenance plan, it can last up to 15 years. Without regular care, your water heater won’t last more than seven years. Few homeowners provide regular service to any of their household appliances. If your water heater is a more than few years old, there’s an excellent chance it is already dying. Keep reading for some thoughts from a plumbing professional about water heater replacements.

How to Tell It Is Time to Replace Your Water Heater

There are a few signs it might be time to replace your water heater. These signs include:

  • Rust forming on the outside of the hot water tank
  • Odd smells or colors coming from your water
  • Water that just isn’t hot anymore
  • A noticeable increase in your water or electric bill
  • Water leaking from the water heater or pipes connected to it
  • Strange noises coming from the water heater as it struggles to heat water
  • A water heater that is older than seven years

What’s the Difference Between Gas and Electric Water Heaters?

Your home is set up for electric, propane or natural gas-fueled water heaters. Switching from electric to gas can be expensive due to the cost of running a new gas line. However, it could be worth the price and hassle in the long run.

A new gas water heater costs more than electric models, but gas water heaters are more efficient than electric ones. If you install a new gas or propane water heater, you will make up the difference in price in energy savings within the first year.

Lower Your Utility Bills with a Water Heater Replacement

Many new water heaters on the market are Energy Star-certified. This is good news for homeowners. Each year brings more efficient appliances, including water heaters. So when it’s time for you to buy a new water heater, you can be sure you’re replacing your old one with a much more efficient model.
