6 Signs You Need a New Water Heater

Signs that indicate it might be time to replace your water heater:

• Age: Water heaters typically last between 8 to 12 years. If your heater is nearing or past its expected lifespan, it's wise to start considering a replacement, even if it's still functioning adequately.
• Rust and Corrosion: Rusty water or corrosion around the fittings of your water heater is a clear sign that it's deteriorating. This can lead to leaks and inefficiencies, so it's best to replace the unit before it fails completely.
• Noise: Loud banging, popping, or rumbling noises coming from your water heater indicate sediment buildup inside the tank. This buildup can cause overheating and reduce the heater's efficiency, signaling the need for a replacement.
• Leaks: Any visible signs of water leakage from your water heater demand immediate attention. Even minor leaks can quickly escalate into major water damage issues, so it's crucial to replace the unit promptly.
• Inadequate Hot Water: If your water heater struggles to provide sufficient hot water for your household's needs, it could be a sign of internal problems like a failing heating element or sediment buildup. In some cases, replacing the unit with a more efficient model may be the best solution.
• High Energy Bills: A sudden spike in your energy bills without a corresponding increase in usage could indicate that your water heater is no longer operating efficiently. Upgrading to a newer, more energy-efficient model can help lower your utility costs in the long run.

If you notice any of these signs, it's advisable to consult with a professional plumber to assess the condition of your water heater and determine if replacement is necessary.
