How You Know It’s Time For A New Water Heater
The most common signs you need a new water heater is the lack of available hot water. You may notice you can’t fill your bathtub without the flowing water turning cold, and there’s only enough hot water for one shower.
The majority of lifespans for water heaters is generally 10 years. If your tank water heater is over a decade old, it’s time to consider replacing it. The brand, type, and proper maintenance all play a role in how long your water will last. Check your water heater’s warranty for the most accurate timeline.
