Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Water Heater

Knowing when to replace a water heater can be a tricky decision to make as a property owner. How can you tell if it’s time to repair or replace your water heater? 

Here are some common things to consider: 

• Age: Most traditional water heaters last about 10 to 15 years. If your water heater is in this age range, it might be more cost-effective to replace than repair.
• Inconsistent hot water: If you're noticing your hot water is not as hot as it used to be or the temperature is inconsistent, it might be time for a replacement.
• Rusty water: Rusty or dirty water coming from your heater can be a sign of corrosion inside the tank, which may lead to a leak soon.
• Strange noises: As heaters age, sediment builds up in the tank. When this sediment is heated and reheated, it eventually hardens, leading to rumbling noises, decreased efficiency, and more damage to the tank.
• Leaks: If you notice moisture or pooling water around your water heater, it may be the result of a leak in the tank, likely due to aging or internal issues. A leaky tank can lead to significant property damage if not addressed promptly.

Benefits of Water Heater Replacement

Replacing the water heater in your home or business can help maintain the value of your property and keep your hot water running year-round. 

Here are some benefits of replacing the water heater in your commercial or residential property: 

• Lower energy costs
• Better energy efficiency 
• Reduced need for future repairs
• Better hot water recovery rate

Tankless Water Heaters

Compared to traditional models, tankless water heaters offer maximum energy efficiency ranging from 0.80 to 0.90 energy efficiency (EF). They generally take up less space than traditional water heaters, providing an endless hot water supply in your home or commercial property. 

When it comes to tankless water heaters, we highly recommend the Navien NPE Condensing Tankless water heater. There are often federal, state and local rebates when you install a Navien water heater, and Pro-Tec Plumbing & Air is proud to be the certified Navien service specialist in Southwest Florida. 

 If you’re interested in upgrading or replacing your tankless water heater, our Fort Myers experts offer a range of leading brands and top-of-the-line products to keep your water heater running efficiently for many years to come.

Reliable hot water is essential for any successful business, from restaurants to commercial office buildings to hospitals and medical facilities. At the same time, every operation has different hot water regulations and needs. 

Our Pro-Tec experts make it easy to repair or replace your commercial water heater with customized, cost-effective solutions to maximize your investment, safeguard against property damage, and keep your business operating smoothly. 

If you need a new installation for your property's water heater, our Pro-Tec experts are here to help! We have over a decade of experience repairing and installing electric, gas, tankless, and traditional water heaters, as well as boilers and storage tanks.

Residential Water Heaters

Electric water heaters typically last around 10 to 15 years. If your electric water heater is nearing the end of its lifetime, it might be time to consider a replacement. The good news is that installing a new, more efficient water heater in your home can help lower your monthly energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. 

Our team uses cutting-edge technology and equipment to provide plenty of options for energy-efficient electric water heaters. If you’re considering replacing your residential water heater, our Pro-Tec technicians recommend the high-quality Rheem Professional Classic Series or the HTP Everlast Residential Stainless Steel water heater.
