Signs You Need a Water Heater Replacement

At Wagner, we’re adept at identifying and addressing a wide range of issues that may indicate it's time for a new water heater. Our knowledgeable technicians will assist you in determining when replacement is more advantageous than continued repairs.

Rising Energy Costs and Inefficiency

If your water heater is consuming more energy than usual, leading to increased utility bills, it might be losing efficiency. Often, replacing it can be a more economical solution than dealing with mounting energy costs.

Frequent Repairs

Constantly needing repairs can be a clear indication that your water heater is nearing the end of its lifespan. Opting for a new system can save you money and inconvenience over time.

Inconsistent Water Temperature

If your water heater is struggling to provide a consistent supply of hot water, it may be due to an aging system that can no longer meet demand.

Age of the Water Heater

Water heaters generally have a lifespan of 10-15 years. If your unit falls within or beyond this range, it may be time to consider a replacement to maintain reliability and efficiency.

Visible Damage or Corrosion

Signs of rust, leaks, or corrosion on your water heater are strong indicators that it’s time for a new unit, as these issues can lead to more severe problems if not addressed.

System Breakdowns

Major component failures can often dictate the need for a new water heater system, especially if the cost of repairs approaches the cost of installing a new unit.
