Signs It Is Time to Replace
When installation makes more sense than repair
Sometimes the most practical decision is a full replacement rather than continuing to repair a system nearing the end of its useful life.
- Tank is leaking from the body
- Unit is 10 or more years old and has had repeated repairs
- Hot water capacity no longer meets household demand
- Rust-colored water from the hot tap
- Heating costs have increased noticeably without explanation
- Current tank size is wrong for the number of occupants
