If your water suddenly turns cold too quickly, or you notice rusty water coming out of the taps, it might need to be replaced. These are just some signs indicating your water heater is getting worn out.
Here are some common signs to look out for:
- Insufficient Hot Water: If you constantly run out of hot water or the water temperature fluctuates unexpectedly, it may be time for a new water heater.
- Rusty Water: If you notice rusty water from your faucets, it could indicate corrosion inside your water heater tank. Over time, metal components can deteriorate, leading to rust and sediment buildup.
- Leaks and Water Damage: Leaks around your water heater can cause significant damage to your home. If you notice puddles or dampness near your water heater, it's crucial to address the issue promptly.
- Strange Noises: Unusual knocking or popping sounds from your water heater can indicate sediment buildup or other internal issues.
- Age of the Water Heater: The average lifespan of a water heater is around 8 to 12 years. If your system is approaching or exceeding this timeframe, it's wise to consider a replacement, even if you have yet to encounter any significant issues.
