How to Know When You Should Replace Your Water Heater
If any of the following is true for your water heater, you may benefit from a replacement:
Age of the Unit
Water heaters typically last between eight to 12 years. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed this age range, replacement is often the better option.
Frequent Repairs
If you find yourself repeatedly calling for repairs, the accumulated costs and inconvenience may outweigh the benefits of keeping an old unit running.
Energy Efficiency
Older water heaters tend to be less energy-efficient, leading to higher utility bills. Newer models are designed to be much more efficient, saving you money in the long run.
Performance Issues
If your current water heater struggles to provide a consistent supply of hot water, a new unit can offer improved performance and reliability.
Safety Concerns
Modern water heaters come with enhanced safety features that older models may lack, providing peace of mind for your household.
The Water Heater Installation Process
Installing a new water heater is a complex task that requires professional expertise to ensure safety and efficiency.
Our installation process usually includes the following:
- Sizing the unit: We properly size the water heater to ensure it can meet your home’s hot water demands without being overly large or inefficient.
- Drain and remove the old unit: We connect a hose to the old water heater's drain valve and empty the tank into a suitable drainage area. Then, we safely remove the old water heater from its location, ensuring that no residual water spills out.
- Connect the water line and electricity or gas to the new unit: we attach the cold water inlet and hot water outlet pipes to the new unit. Then, depending on the type of water heater, we connect electricity or gas connections to the new unit.
- Fill the tank: We open the main water supply and allow the tank to fill.
- Power on the new unit: We restore the electricity or gas supply to the unit. If necessary, light the pilot light for gas water heaters.
- Temperature settings: We set the thermostat to the recommended temperature (typically between 120 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Inspect for leaks: We perform a thorough inspection to ensure there are no leaks at any connection points.
Proper water heater installation is crucial for ensuring reliable performance and safety. With help from the professionals at Johns Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning, Water Purification and Electrical, your water heater installation will be completed seamlessly.
