To avoid the stress and potential expenses of a failed water heater, replacing it before it breaks down is the way to go. Waiting until it fails could result in costly repairs and water damage.
It is a common cause for water heaters to break down when sediment accumulates inside the water tank, causing corrosion and internal deterioration.
A water heater with a tank can last for approximately ten years on average if it is maintained properly. But if it is not regularly serviced and taken care of, its lifespan will be shortened.
If you’re unsure about the age of your water heater, you can follow these steps to determine how old it is.
Look for the water heater’s serial number. It is usually located on top of the unit. It will start with a letter followed by a series of numbers. The letter indicates the month in which it was manufactured (“A” for January, “B” for February, etc.), with the immediately following numbers being the year. So, if your water heater’s serial number starts with “G14,” the “G” is for July, and the “14″ is for 2014. This means that your home’s water heater was manufactured in July of 2014.
In addition to the age of your water heater, there are other factors you should consider when determining whether you need a replacement. If you have observed any of the symptoms listed below, it’s time to contact Pioneer Oil and Propane to schedule a replacement.
Replacing your old water heater with a modern propane tankless water heater is a great way to upgrade your home and improve your family’s comfort.
Switching from an electric water heater to a propane tankless water heater can save you significant amounts on your energy bills since water heating accounts for about 20% of your household’s energy expenses. The energy efficiency of a propane model is the reason for this cost savings.
A storage tank water heater only provides hot water that is stored in the tank. In order to make sure that the hot water is available at all times, the water must be reheated and maintained constantly, which wastes energy.
A tankless water heating system heats water only when it’s needed, unlike traditional storage tank systems. This technology has the potential to lower your hot water energy consumption and offer an endless supply of hot water.
