When to Replace a Water Heater
The average life expectancy of a water heater is between 8 and 15 years. An old water heater can operate at low efficiency for years before it finally fails. Unless your water heater is already broken, it can be difficult to know the right time to purchase a new one. The truth is, sooner or later your old water heater will break down, leaving you with no hot water, or worse, a flooded basement. It could be time to replace your unit if:
- It is more than 10+ years old
- There is leaking around your unit
- Your water heater fails to consistently produce hot water
- You notice rust-colored water
- You hear rumbling and banging inside your hot water heater
- Your hot water demands have increased
If you’re experiencing any of these signs, call BGE HOME in Maryland, or request an estimate online. Our team is ready to help you find the right water heater for your needs.
Save Energy & Money with a New Water Heater Installation
Did you know that heating water is typically the second-largest energy expense in your home? Usually, this energy usage accounts for about 18% of your total energy bill. According to ENERGY STAR, if your water heater is more than 10 years old, now is the best time to plan its replacement.
Today’s new high-efficiency water heaters use much less energy than those manufactured 10 or 15 years ago. Simply replacing an older water heater can reduce the energy you use by up to 50% and help you save a lot of money.
