How to Tell If You Need a New Water Heater

You may not realize that your water heater needs to be repaired or replaced. Here are a few signs to look out for:

• Age of the Water Heater – Water heaters do not last forever. A majority of water heaters last somewhere between 8 and 12 years. If yours is older than that, you could benefit from a new water heater.

• Lack of Hot Water – If your water is cold or just warm, your water heater may be malfunctioning. Let a team of experts examine what is going on. It may be determined that you need a new water heater.

• Abnormal Smells and Rust Colored Water – One of the main signs that your water heater needs to be replaced is unusual smells and rusty colored water. You may also hear strange noises coming from the unit if it is malfunctioning.

• Constant Repairs – Are you constantly having to make calls to have your water heater repaired? It is time to get a new one. Rely on our pros for water heater installation.

• Leaks! – One of the most easily noticeable signs is that your water heater leaks often. If your water heater is leaking uncontrollably, give us a call. We will help you diagnose the problem and replace your water heater if necessary.

If you need a new water heater for your home, you may be tempted to go to the store, purchase one, and install it yourself - but that is much easier said than done. Here are a few reasons why it’s important to hire professionals to complete your hot water heater installation.


  • Professionals can recommend the right size and type of water heater for your needs so that you can save money on energy costs and have plenty of hot water

  • Professionals have access to the best brands and latest models -  some of which are not available in retail stores


  • Professionals are aware of building codes (which frequently change) which are necessary to know when installing a water heater. You cannot simply remove the old water heater and replace it with the new one. If codes are not followed, it could be a safety issue


  • Transporting a water heater from the store to your home is risky. There’s a glass lining inside the hot water heater that can be broken during transportation. Professionals have the experience and equipment to help mitigate this risk


Professionals will install your water heater correctly and safely, the first time – saving you time and stress. Rather than attempting to install a water heater on your own and risking damage to it, creating even worse issues, we urge you to contact our team.


What Type of Water Heater is Right for You?

There are several kinds of water heaters out there. The type you choose will depend on your property and individual circumstances. You'll need to consider the size of your home, the level of efficiency you'll need, cost, and energy source as you make your decision.

  • Storage Tank Water Heaters: This is the most common water heating system; an insulated tank provides a ready supply of hot water to your home. When you turn on the hot water tap, the tank releases hot water where it is needed. The tank is then replenished with cold water, which is then heated in preparation for the next use. Choose a tank with stronger insulation to help reduce heat loss. 
  • Tankless Water Heaters: Tankless systems use heating coils to heat the water, providing cost savings by only heating water as needed. These systems work best if you draw water for only one use at a time, as they only provide a limited flow of hot water per minute.
  • Heat Pump Water Heaters: Heat pumps transfer heat instead of generating it themselves. They capture heat from the environment and redirect it, heating the water. While heat pumps are more expensive upfront than standard electric models, they provide generous cost savings right out of the gate.
  • Condensing Water Heaters: These water heaters use tanks like conventional systems do, but they recycle the exhaust gases to reheat water. A condensing water heater is a good option if your home heats water with gas and you need a system with at least a 55-gallon capacity.
