Do I Need a Water Heater Replacement?

Homeowners may wonder when the right moment is to replace their water heater. Ultimately, it all comes down to which type of system you have and what condition your current one is in - but Plumbers Roseville can help! Generally speaking, look into a replacement if any of these scenarios apply:

• When the water heater is leaking or showing signs of corrosion: if there is any obvious damage to the outside of the unit, such as rust stains or water leaks, it may be time to replace it.

• When the hot water output is reduced: if the water coming out of the taps isn't as hot as it used to be, or the pressure is reduced, then it could be an indication of sediment or scale build-up inside the unit. This can reduce efficiency and may indicate that the tank needs to be replaced.
  

• The pilot light is constantly going out: if you have a gas water heater and the pilot light keeps going out, then this could be caused by a faulty thermostat or burner.

• Strange noises coming from the water heater: if you notice any banging, rumbling, or popping noises coming from the hot water heater then it could be an indication that sediment has built up inside the unit and is causing damage to the heating element.
  

Water Heater Repair in Roseville

There are a wide range of factors that can contribute to your water heater failing. Age and hard water are two big culprits; with time comes mineral deposits that build up on the elements in your hot water tank which decreases performance. If you have hard H2O running through your house then this accelerates the buildup - like sandpaper on metal parts - leading to serious damage over time.

Water heaters options:

Electric water heater: These units don't require external venting and are inexpensive to operate. They require less energy than other options because they heat water rapidly as well.

Gas water heater: Gas water heaters are powered by electricity, so they will continue to function even during power outages.

Tankless water heater: These water heaters require less floor space in your home. They also run on less energy.

Conventional tank water heater: Unlike tankless water heaters, conventional tank water heaters hold water in an insulated tank until it's needed. Depending on the size of your house, you will need a bigger or smaller tank.
