Your water heater is vital for your daily comfort, but how do you know when it’s time for an inspection or even a replacement?
1. If your water heater is over 10-15 years old, it's time to start monitoring its performance more closely.
2. If your hot water is coming out rusty or discolored, it may indicate corrosion inside the tank—definitely a sign to check!
3. Rumbling, popping, or banging noises can signal sediment buildup. An inspection can determine if it’s time for maintenance or replacement.
4. Puddles or signs of moisture around the base of the heater may indicate a leak, which can lead to bigger problems if not addressed quickly.
5. If your hot water supply is inconsistent or not hot enough, it might mean your unit is failing.
6. A spike in energy costs can suggest that your water heater is working harder than it should be, possibly due to inefficiency.
Regular inspections can help keep your water heater running smoothly and save you money in the long run.
