4 Signs to Upgrade Your Water Heater Today

Even the sturdiest water heater will eventually lose efficiency and suffer diminished reliability. When you notice the following, it’s time to consider replacement options:

• Diminished capacity: Lower hot water capacity can indicate components are wearing out.
• Leaks: Leaks can indicate valves or seals failing, but they can also indicate corrosion eating the tank from the inside.
• Discolored water: Rust colored water is a common sign that there is corrosion within the tank.
• Age: Water heaters typically have a lifespan of between eight to 12 years. As your water heater nears this range, it’s advisable to identify your needs and explore replacement systems.

3 Reasons Not to DIY Water Heater Installation

• If property damage occurs because of your DIY installation, your insurance company can deny coverage.
• Removing an old water heater is messy and storage tank disposal is seldom easy.
• You risk serious injury.

5 Benefits of Switching to a Tankless Water Heater

Today, storage tank water heaters are energy-efficient and can measurably reduce monthly energy bills. If it’s time for a water heater replacement, there are many reasons to choose tankless. On-demand (tankless) water heaters reduce the standby energy loss of storage tanks. Depending on how much hot water your home uses, you can increase energy efficiency by 8% to 34%.

Advantages of tankless water heaters include:

• Convenience: Hot water is delivered in seconds. No more taking turns for morning showers; no need to delay laundry or dishwashing.
• Economy: You can save thousands over the lifetime of a tankless water heater and the annual expense of storage versus tankless is reduced by half. Tankless water heaters are also proven to increase property value.
• Longevity: Tankless water heaters cost more initially, but they last twice as long as storage tank water heaters.
• Space saving: Tankless water heaters are about the size of a small suitcase. They use less floor space or can be wall-mounted in almost any location.
• Unlimited hot water: The water heats when you turn the hot-water faucet handle. You’ll never use all the hot water, and you’ll never have to wait for water to heat.
