Mira Loma Water Heater Replacement

If your water heater is struggling to produce hot water, the tankless water heater is not working, or you are considering a tankless water heater replacement, then you need to contact a water heater replacement company.
Your local water heater replacement contractor can inspect your current water heater system and help you determine whether or not it’s time to replace your water heater. When it is determined that you need to replace your water heater then you should consider tankless water heater replacement in Mira Loma. Take a look at the top five signs why you might need your water heater replaced.
Five Signs You Need Water Heater Replacement
Unfortunately, it’s not always easy to determine whether or not you need to replace your hot water heater. Here are five signs that it’s time to call a water heater replacement company to replace your hot water heater.
Rusty Water Heater or Valves
Rust and your plumbing system never mix. Since your water heater is part of your plumbing system, rust can be an indication that you need a water heater replacement. If your water inlet or pressure relief valve is rusty then it’s likely that the inside of your tank is rusty, too. In this case, you need a new water heater.
Additionally, if you notice that the water coming out of your faucets looks rusty then you might have a water heater problem. Rust-colored water that does not clear in color after running your faucet for several minutes means that your water tank is rusty. If the color does go away then you still need a plumber because you could have corroded pipes.
Leaking Water Heater
If you notice that your water heater has a leak or there is standing water at the base of your water heater then you need to have your water heater inspected. Usually, water heater leaks cannot be repaired and tank replacement is needed. If the fittings or connections are the sources of the leak then you can get away with a repair, but you won’t be able to tell for sure without an inspection.
Noisy Water Heater
Over time your water heater might start to make noise. The louder your water gets, the bigger the sign that you need to replace your water heater. The noise is the result of years of use and many cycles of hot water production. Sediment can build up and harden at the bottom of the tank even if the tank has been routinely maintained. Have a professional flush your tank and see if the noise decreases. If it doesn’t then you should consider water heater replacement.
Old Water Heater
Water heaters will go out over time. You can expect gas water heaters to last anywhere from six to eight years. Electric water heaters last a little longer, about ten years. Routine maintenance is needed for tank heaters to reach maximum longevity. Tankless water heaters, on the other hand, last the longest. You can expect a tankless water heater to last about twenty years.
Water Heater Won’t Heat
There are three main reasons why your water heater might not heat properly.
- Your water heater thermostat needs to be reset or adjusted to 120 degrees.
- There is a problem with the heating element and it needs to be replaced or repaired.
- The water heater tank is too small for the amount of weather heater that you need.
The first two reasons why your water heater isn’t producing hot water are usually fixable, but the third means that you need replacement. It is possible that your water heater was once capable of producing the amount of hot water that you needed, but your family outgrew it and you need a bigger tank. One replacement solution is to replace your water heater with a tankless system. A tankless water heater will produce ample amounts of hot water for your family, regardless of the size of your home.
