How Long Does a Water Heater Typically Last?
The life expectancy for the average water heater is between 11 and 20 years. That range can vary depending on several factors, such as usage and the type of water heater. During the lifetime of your water heater, it will likely need repairs and maintenance to keep it in top working condition. One of the most common reasons water heaters break down before their expected lifespan is a lack of necessary repairs and maintenance. As your water heater reaches the end of its life expectancy, there becomes a decision about whether it is better to repair or replace. Often, this is a complex calculation involving the cost of frequent plumbing repairs and the benefits of replacing your water heater.
