When Should You Decommission Your Water Heater?
The average lifespan of an ordinary tank-based water heater is 8 to 12 years. There are many factors that can ultimately affect how and when your water heater gives up, such as its exposure to hard or soft water, whether the tank was regularly flushed, and the initial quality of its components and materials. However, no water heater can escape the ravages of time as the entire unit will eventually break down, requiring replacement.
​
Symptoms that suggest that your water heater is on its last leg include:
-
Rust or corrosion on the tank and its water connections
-
Insufficient water temperatures
-
Discolored water
-
Water pooling at the base of the unit
-
Loud banging and popping noises emanating from the unit
