Like your HVAC system, your water heater is one of the most used appliances in your home. It constantly keeps a supply of water heated and ready to use at a moment’s notice.
How long can I expect my water heater to last?
With daily use, your water heater will begin to break down over time and will eventually need to be replaced. The average lifespan of a water heater is 8-12 years.
So, how do you know if your water heater needs to be replaced?
- Less hot water is available during use.
- No hot water at all.
- You notice water leaking around the floor near your water heater.
- Crackling noise when the water is heating.
