Are you ready to get rid of all the frustrating problems that result from a faulty water heater?
How do you know when you need a new water heater? You don’t want to waste money, but you don’t know the ins and outs of the situation. Here are some things to think about.
First of all, how old is the unit? Age is a good indicator that it’s likely worn out. Most water heaters last about 10 to 15 years.
Next, do you no longer have enough hot water for all your needs, for all the baths, showers, laundry and dishwashing? Or, is it not hot enough, even though the dial is turned all the way up?
And, what if it’s too hot? All of these are indicators that you may need a new water heater.
Another thing to notice is when your water heater does strange things like making loud noises or there’s a puddle beneath it and debris comes out of the faucet with the water. It’s also obvious something is wrong if the water looks and tastes like rust and smells like rotten eggs. All this indicates corrosion is taking place inside the water heater.
Paul the Plumber suggests you give them a call for help in determining your need for a new water heater and for efficient replacement when you need it. Remember that the sooner your water heater is replaced, the sooner all these problems go away.
