5 Signs You Need a New Water Heater

Are you considering getting a new water heater in Greer, SC or the surrounding area?

Maybe you’re wondering if yours is close to breaking down.

You can always call us at KT Plumbing to get it assessed, or you can use the guidelines below to decide how best to proceed.

1) Your Water Heater is Too Old

Most conventional water heaters last 10-15 years and tankless versions can last 20-30, depending on the specifics of the heater itself. If yours is getting up there in age, you may want to reach out to us for Greer water heater replacement soon, especially if you are experiencing problems with it or if you have to repair it frequently.

2) Your Water Heater Leaks Regularly

If your water heater leaks, it’s time to get rid of it ASAP. Small water heater leaks can become large leaks fast, and then they can do significant damage to your house. If you see a leak or signs of a leak, call us right away to have your water heater looked at and we’ll perform water heater repair in Greer if we can, or if necessary, we’ll replace it.

3) Your Water Heater Makes Odd Sounds

If your water heater makes sounds you haven’t heard from it before, it’s time to call for help. Rumbling may mean that the water heater needs more energy than it used to because it’s not working efficiently anymore. Other sounds can mean that sediment has built up. Either way, we’ll take a look and let you know how we can help.

4) Your Water Heater Isn’t Working

If your water heater isn’t heating water or isn’t heating as much water as it used to, it may need to be replaced. While repairs may be possible, they often cost more than a new water heater would. We can take a look and give you estimates for repair vs. replacement so you can make an informed choice.

5) Your Water Heater Is Too Small

If you regularly run out of hot water at home, you may need a larger water heater even if the current one still works well. Our team can take stock of your water heating needs, then let you know what we recommend so you can always have the hot water you require.
