Emergency Response
Get Hot Water With Expert Water Heater Replacement
The average lifespan of a tanked water heater typically ranges from 8 to 12 years, though factors such as the quality of the unit, maintenance practices, water quality, and usage patterns can influence its longevity. If your water heater is getting up there in age, or if it’s constantly developing issues that require repairs, it’s probably time to upgrade to a new unit. If you’re noticing these signs, you may want to seriously consider replacing your old water heater:
- Old age
- Rusty water or visible corrosion
- A need for frequent repairs
- Safety concerns (for instance, leaks from your gas lines on a gas heater, or electrical issues for an electric heater)
The cost of a brand-new water heater can vary widely depending on the type & size (in gallons) of the water heater. We’ll help you find the best option to meet your budget, energy, and water consumption needs, then get down to work installing the new unit for you!

How Do I Know If My Water Heater Needs Repair or Replacement?
Signs such as age, frequent repairs, decreased efficiency, leaks, and major malfunctions can indicate the need for either repair or replacement. It ultimately comes down to which option will be the most effective – and cost-effective – in the long run. We can assess your water heater and recommend the best way forward.
What Is the Average Lifespan of a Water Heater, and When Should I Consider Replacement?
The average lifespan of a water heater is around 8 to 12 years. If your water heater is nearing or exceeding this age and experiencing issues, it’s likely time to consider replacement options.
What Maintenance Should I Perform to Extend the Lifespan of My Water Heater?
Regular maintenance tasks include flushing the tank to remove sediment, checking for leaks and corrosion, testing the pressure relief valve, and ensuring proper ventilation and insulation around the unit.
