Fixing Vs. Replacing Your Water Heater

When it comes to the longevity and efficiency of your water heater, deciding between repairs and replacements is a significant consideration. Our team of experienced Master Plumbers is equipped to assess and address issues with all major brands of electric, gas, and tankless water heaters. We operate on a transparent pricing model, charging by the job rather than the hour, so you’ll know the cost upfront.

With a 1-year warranty on all repairs, we stand behind the quality of our work. Sometimes, a repair is all that’s needed to restore your water heater to optimal function. However, when facing recurring problems or if your system is outdated, a replacement might be a more cost-effective and energy-efficient solution.

We’ll guide you through the decision-making process, considering factors like the age of your current unit, the extent of the damage, and the potential long-term savings offered by modern, energy-efficient models.

Common Water Heater Questions and Problems

How long does a typical water heater last?

The lifespan of a water heater can vary, but on average, a traditional tank-style water heater lasts around 10-15 years. Regular maintenance and proper care can contribute to extending its longevity.

What size water heater do I need for my home?

The size of the water heater depends on factors such as the number of people in your household and your daily hot water usage. A general guideline is that a family of four may require a 40-50-gallon tank, but individual needs may vary. Consulting with Rob Bertolino Plumbing & Heating can help determine the optimal size for your specific requirements.

How can I improve the energy efficiency of my water heater?

To enhance energy efficiency, consider setting the water heater thermostat to 120°F, insulating the hot water pipes, and draining a small amount of water from the tank annually to remove sediment. Additionally, investing in a newer, more energy-efficient model or exploring alternative options like tankless water heaters can significantly improve overall efficiency. Regular maintenance also contributes to optimal performance.
