Several signs indicate it might be time for a water heater replacement. Some of the most common include inconsistent water temperature, discolored or rusty water from the tap, unusual noises such as rumbling or popping from the tank, and visible leaks or moisture around the unit’s base. An older unit that has needed quite a few repairs is also a strong candidate for replacement, which can save you money on future service calls and energy bills.

FAQs About Indiana Water Heaters
How Long Does a Water Heater Last?
The lifespan of a water heater depends on its type, maintenance history, and the quality of your local water. Generally, traditional tank-style water heaters last about 8 to 12 years. Tankless models, on the other hand, often have a longer lifespan, typically lasting about 20 years. Regular maintenance is key to helping your unit reach or even exceed its expected service life.
What's the Difference Between Tank and Tankless Water Heaters?
The primary difference lies in how they heat water.
- Tank water heaters store and continuously heat a large volume of water, so it’s ready when you need it.
- Tankless water heaters heat water on demand using a powerful burner, providing a virtually endless supply of hot water without storing it. This on-demand heating makes them more energy-efficient.
Choosing between these options depends on your household’s specific needs and usage patterns. Van Drunen Heating & Air Conditioning can help you select the system that will give you the most reliable hot water.
How Often Does My Water Heater Need to Be Flushed?
Flushing your water heater at least once a year is recommended to remove sediment buildup. Minerals like calcium and magnesium can sit on the bottom of the tank, lowering its efficiency and potentially causing damage over time. Regular flushing helps maintain your unit’s performance and can extend its lifespan.
Why Do I Only Get 10 Minutes of Hot Water?
Limited hot water is often caused by a few common issues. It could be due to a malfunctioning thermostat, a broken dip tube that allows cold water to mix with hot water, or significant sediment buildup that is displacing hot water in the tank. If you are experiencing this problem, it’s best to have a professional diagnose the issue.
