When do you need a new hot water tank?
Hot water tanks aren’t something you purchase every day. In fact, you might be tempted to postpone buying a new hot water tank because of the cost or the hassle of having it installed. However, ignoring the warning signs that your hot water tank is no longer functioning properly can lead to inconvenience and potential damage. If your hot water tank shows these signs, it may be time for a replacement:
It’s getting old. Hot water tanks typically stay in good working condition for about 10-15 years. If your tank is older than that, or if it’s been so long you can’t remember how old it is, it’s likely time for a replacement.
No hot water. If your water is suddenly running cold, or if it isn’t heating properly or evenly, it’s likely that the tank is no longer functioning properly and needs to be replaced.
Low-quality water. If your water is coming out of the tap appearing cloudy, muddy, or sandy, or if it has a metallic smell and taste, the tank may need cleaning. It’s also a sign that your tank is breaking down, with particles from the inner tank contaminating your water supply, indicating the need for replacement.
It’s noisy. Hot water tanks are designed to operate quietly. If your tank is making noises, such as crackling sounds, it’s a sign that it’s malfunctioning and may need to be replaced.
It’s leaking. If your hot water tank is leaking, it’s a serious issue. Leaks can worsen over time, and there’s a risk of the tank bursting, leading to significant damage.
Repairs aren’t working. If costly repairs aren’t solving the problem, it may be time to replace your old hot water tank with a new, reliable one.
You need a professional hot water tank installation
To ensure your hot water system operates smoothly and safely, it’s essential to have your new hot water tank installed by a licensed professional. Handling gas, electricity, and propane systems can be dangerous if not done correctly. A professional installation minimizes the risk of errors that could lead to safety hazards or costly repairs in the future.
To maintain the safety of your family and maximize efficiency, always rely on experienced professionals for your hot water installation.
