How Often Should I Service My Water Heater?

Schedule regular maintenance to keep your water heater efficient and long-lasting. Generally, plan for service once a year. This annual checkup includes inspecting the anode rod, flushing out sediment, checking the pressure relief valve, and making sure all points are secure. Preventive maintenance helps avoid breakdowns and keeps operating costs in check by running your water heater at its best.

What Are the Signs That My Water Heater Needs Repair?

Common warning signs include uneven water temperatures, odd noises from the tank, rusty or discolored water, leaks, or a drop in hot water supply. Contact a professional promptly if you notice these issues. Addressing problems early prevents further damage and costly repairs. Our team at IRBIS Air, Plumbing & Electrical responds swiftly with reliable service.

What Is the Life Expectancy of a Water Heater?

A typical water heater lasts 8 to 12 years, depending on the unit's build quality and maintenance routine. Some models can reach up to 20 years. Consistent care—like annual checkups—maximizes your unit's lifespan and helps ensure uninterrupted hot water throughout its use.

Can I Switch to a Different Type of Water Heater?

You can upgrade from a tank model to a tankless or solar-powered water heater to suit changing needs. Such a switch may require plumbing or electrical updates.
