What’s Causing Your Water Heater Problem?
There are several factors that can affect your water heater. Below are some of the more common problems our customers experience.
Leaking tank: There could be water leaking out of the tank. While this will not affect the water temperature, this is a serious problem that affects the efficiency of your system. The leak can be caused by a crack in the tank (which will require a whole unit replacement) or a poorly-fitted part that can be repaired.
Broken pilot light: If you have a gas water heater, a lack of hot water may signal that its pilot light has gone out. We will help you diagnose the problem and get your water heater started again.
Faulty thermostat: Electric water heaters feature a thermostat, which can limit your hot water supply if broken. We’ll figure out what’s wrong with your thermostat and determine if a repair or replacement is the better solution for you.
Should You Repair Or Replace Your Water Heater?
If your water heater is over ten years old, it has likely lost much of its efficiency; continuing to repair it, with its frequent breakdowns, is not economical in the long run. As a result, we recommend replacing your unit if it is over ten years old.
A cracked or corroded storage tank is also a sign you need to replace your entire unit.
If you have a newer unit, a simple repair or replacing individual parts may be all that’s needed to get your water heater working again.

How Long Can You Expect Your Water Heater To Last?
Your water heater’s longevity depends on several factors, such as how often it’s used, how well it’s maintained, and the quality of your water supply (whether you are using a water softener or untreated hard water).
In general, traditional water heaters are expected to last 7-10 years with proper maintenance. If you’re moving into a new home, check the age of the existing water heater. You don’t want to move into a new house only to find out you’re going to have to make a major plumbing repair in just a year or two.
If you’re looking to save on energy costs and would like hot water on demand, consider a tankless water heater. These units require less maintenance and last longer (over 20 years) than the traditional water heater.
