Frequently asked questions
- What are the different types of water heaters?
- There are several types of water heaters, including traditional tank water heaters, tankless water heaters, and hybrid systems. Tankless heaters provide hot water on demand, while traditional systems store hot water in a tank. Hybrid systems combine the benefits of both types. We’ll help you choose the best option based on your home’s needs, budget, and energy efficiency goals.
- How long does a water heater typically last?
- Most traditional water heaters last between 8 to 12 years, while tankless models can last up to 20 years with proper maintenance. However, the lifespan of your water heater can vary depending on usage, maintenance, and water quality. Regular maintenance can help prolong its life and improve performance.
- How do I know if my water heater needs to be replaced?
- Signs that your water heater may need replacement include inconsistent hot water, strange noises, water discoloration, or leaking. If your system is over 10 years old and experiencing any of these issues, it may be time for a replacement. We offer honest assessments to help you decide if repair or replacement is the best option.
- How often should I have my water heater serviced?
- For optimal performance, we recommend having your water heater serviced once a year. Regular maintenance, including flushing the tank, checking the anode rod, and inspecting for leaks, can extend the life of your water heater and ensure it operates efficiently. If you have hard water, more frequent maintenance may be necessary.
- What are the benefits of a tankless water heater?
- Tankless water heaters provide hot water on demand, eliminating the need for a storage tank. This can result in energy savings, as they only heat water when you need it. Tankless systems also take up less space and have a longer lifespan than traditional models. If you're looking for an energy-efficient, space-saving option, a tankless water heater might be the right choice for you.
