Is It Time for a New Water Heater? Key Indicators

Shower heaters are a marvel to any home looking for increased practicality in their water utilization. They make bathing more comfortable and assist in thoroughly cleaning dishes, laundry, and many more aspects of the home. Installing a shower heater also boosts a property’s total value.

Unfortunately, your water heater for bathroom fixtures may eventually accumulate wear and tear due to constant use. At some point, you will need to purchase a new unit to maintain efficiency and reduce safety risks. 

But, how do you know it’s time for a new water heater?

Insufficient Hot Water

The most noticeable sign that your water heater needs to retire is its inability to provide hot water. Often, this problem can be fixed with a bit of repairs, but if it still cannot provide heated water after all the work done on it, consider finding a replacement. Repeatedly hiring a professional repairman to extend the life of your old water heater will only make you spend too much.

Strange Noises

Modern water heaters operate quietly. It is typically not a good sign if your shower heater begins to make sounds when in use, and it might be a symptom of a serious mechanical issue if the noises begin to get louder and stranger.

Popping, rumbling, or grinding noises are indicative of sediments causing damage to the tank of your heater. If you have a tankless unit, certain components might have been worn out or loosened. Whichever type of heater you have, unusual sounds are a telltale sign that it’s time to shop for a new water heater.

Your Heater’s Age

Often, it all comes down to the age of your appliances. A water heater that has seen better days is enough reason to let it retire. The number one reason why is that because older water heaters are more susceptible to damage and issues, which can lead to increased expenses for repairs, maintenance, and rising power bills.

Most water heaters have a useful life of around ten (10) to fifteen (15) years. When your bathrooms shower heater is between or beyond those numbers, it is time to get a new one. You can check for the age of your water heater using the manufacturing date found on the unit’s label.
