Your water heater is crucial to providing your home or business with a supply of hot water. Routine tasks like cooking, cleaning and showering require this resource, making your equipment’s function critical to daily life. If you need water heater installation, maintenance or repairs to keep your days in order, the Metro Services HVAC team is here to help.
You should know the signs that your water heater is failing or needs maintenance so you can keep it operating as intended. Contact Metro Services HVAC if you notice:
One of the most common problems for gas water heaters is an issue with the pilot light — you may find that it won’t light at all or will but won’t stay lit, meaning you can’t get any hot water from the tank. Whenever an issue arises, you should immediately contact our professionals for prompt repair services.
The average life span of a water heater can vary depending on the type and maintenance measures. In general, many last for 10 to 12 years, though regular maintenance can help extend this period. In the right conditions, a heater may last 15 to 20 years.
Late in that time frame — or if you begin to notice problems — you’ll want to look into replacing your equipment. Significant leaks are also signs it might be time to replace your water heater. These leaks often cause enough damage that it would be time-consuming and costly to fix, making replacement a viable option.
As a general rule, replacement is often the right choice if your water heater needs large repairs when it’s nearing the end of its estimated life. A good way to decide if repairs are worthwhile is by considering if they would be 50% or more of the replacement cost — if so, it’s best to get a new unit.
