Why should I get a new water heater?

In addition to keeping your family comfortable with hot water, a new water heater has the added benefit of heating up water faster and delivering cleaner water that has not been contaminated by rust/decay from an old water heater.

What type of water heater should I install for my home?

Conventional water heaters are a cost-effective option for most Austin homes and businesses. For homeowners with large families where an endless flow of hot water is required, a tankless water heater may be more suitable.

Do You Need a Water Heater Replacement?

A malfunctioning water heater can range from being a minor annoyance to a significant safety hazard. Issues like water leaks can cause extensive damage to your property, and gas leaks from gas-powered tanks can pose serious health risks. Here are signs that might indicate it is time that you consider replacing your water heater:

Age of the Water Heater
The average lifespan of a water heater is typically around 10-15 years. If yours is older than this, it might be wise to start looking for a replacement, even if it hasn't started showing any major issues yet.
Rust and Corrosion
If you notice rust either in the water coming from your heater or on the tank itself, it's a sign of corrosion. Once corrosion starts, it's only a matter of time before the integrity of the tank is compromised.
Water Leaks
Any signs of leaking around the base of the water heater or from the tank itself are serious. Leaks can lead to property damage and, in gas-powered units, could pose a risk if water comes into contact with the gas burner.
Insufficient Hot Water
If you're consistently running out of hot water or the water doesn't get as hot as it used to, this can indicate that the heating element is failing or there's a buildup of sediment in the tank.

Strange Noises
Rumbling or banging noises from your water heater can be a sign of sediment buildup. As water heats, this sediment hardens, which can lead to inefficiency and increased damage to the tank.
Water Temperature Fluctuations
If the water temperature is inconsistent, it might indicate a malfunctioning thermostat or a failing heating element.
Increased Energy Bills
An inefficiency in the water heater will reflect in your energy bills. If there's a noticeable increase in your bills, the heater might be working harder to provide hot water.
Gas Leaks (for gas-powered heaters)
If you smell gas near your water heater, this is a serious safety hazard and needs immediate attention. Gas leaks can lead to fires or explosions.

If you notice any of these issues, reach out to Stan's Heating, Air, Plumbing, & Electrical for an inspection to determine whether a water heater repair or replacement is necessary.

Benefits of a New Water Heater

Modern water heaters can provide a wide range of benefits that go beyond just supplying hot water. Some of the additional advantages include:

Energy Efficiency
Newer models are designed to be much more energy-efficient, reducing your overall energy consumption and saving you money on utility bills. They often include features like better insulation, advanced heating methods, and more efficient burners or heating elements.
Space-Saving Designs
Contemporary water heaters often come in compact designs, saving valuable space in your home. Tankless water heaters, in particular, are much smaller and can be installed in more places within a home.
A Longer Lifespan
New technology and materials used in modern water heaters can extend their lifespan compared to older models. This means fewer replacements and potentially lower long-term costs.
Improved Safety Features
Modern units come with enhanced safety features such as better pressure release valves, advanced thermostat controls, and in some cases, flame arrestor screens in gas models to prevent fires.
Faster Heating
With advancements in technology, many modern water heaters can heat water faster than older models, ensuring a more consistent and immediate hot water supply.
Better Water Quality
With less sediment buildup and corrosion in newer models, the quality of the hot water can be improved, which is beneficial for both consumption and usage in appliances.
