Signs I Need Water Heater Replacement

Or it could be that your water heater has reached the end it's lifespan. Give us a call and we'll send a professional water heater technician to help.

Water Heater Is Old

Unfortunately, hot water heaters aren't meant to last forever. A water heater can last up to a decade and up to fifteen years if they are taken care of and get routine maintenance. If your water heater is reaching the end of it's lifespan, it may be time to replace your old unit.

Reduced Water Pressure

Another sign that you need to replace your water heater is a decrease in water pressure. Mineral deposits inside of your water heaters tank can lower the water pressure by clocking the pipes that allow the water into your home.

Should I Get a Tankless Water Heater?

Here are a few of the most common reasons why you should install a Navien tankless water heater system in your home.

Space Saving

A tankless water heater system doesn’t require you to have a gigantic storage tank stashed somewhere in your home. Tankless systems heat the water that flows through them and gives it to you on-demand when you need it. Most of these units are neatly tucked away either on the wall near a faucet or even in cabinets located under sinks. This can open up space in your home where you may not have even thought possible.

Energy Saving

We touched briefly on this earlier, but one of the biggest benefits of making the switch to solar is the amount of money it can save you on your utility bills. Whether you have an electric water heater or a gas-powered unit, you need to consume energy in order to keep the water in the tank at the desired temperature. Even if you don’t use the water in your tank, it slowly loses heat and comes back to an ambient temperature, which means your heater needs to turn back on to bring it back up. Tankless water heaters heat the water as you need it, thus eliminating the need to be constantly running when you aren’t running any water in your home. This can save you potentially hundreds of dollars per year on your utility costs.

Helpful Tips to Enjoy a Top-Performing Water Heater

  • Check regularly for water around the heater and listen for unusual noises.
  • Consider lowering the water heater thermostat to 120 degrees to save money on your energy costs.
  • Always maintain two feet of clearance around the water heater unless the manufacturer specifies otherwise.
  • If you have an older hot water heater, you may want to consider adding a layer of insulation around it to help it hold heat and use less energy.
  • Don’t forget to adjust the water heater to the lowest setting if you plan to be out of town. Some heaters have built-in “vacation” settings that you can easily switch on and off.
