New Hot Water Heater Installations
Hot water heaters are one fixture in the home that many homeowners don’t realize may need replacing until it’s too late. A hot water heater works each time you use hot water to bathe, wash dishes, clean, wash your hands, or use any type of water that isn’t tap cold, and just how often you use your hot water heater probably won’t become apparent without consciously thinking about it until it breaks. At Plumbing Emergency Rescue, our professionals can help to keep your hot water heater running efficiently throughout the course of its lifespan, but should that lifespan run up, we can also perform new installations.
Like any other appliance or fixture in the home, your hot water heater does have a lifespan, and for the average heater, this span is around 8 to 12 years depending on your type and model. There are two different types of hot water heaters with gas and electric, and small variances in longevity are to be expected with different heater models.
There are a few things that you can consider and look for when determining if it’s time to have your hot water heater replaced, and these are things that go beyond just age. If your hot water heater seems to collect a small pool of water at its base, or the heater works somewhat erratically with frequent need for repair, it may be time to simply replace the unit with a new installation to avoid additional repairs and an ultimate breakdown. Hot water heaters never seem to break down when it’s convenient, particularly because it’s never convenient to be without hot water, so we at Plumbing Emergency Rescue always recommend to our Long Island area customers to replace their hot water heaters before the problems begin to grow more severe.
Our professionals at Plumbing Emergency Rescue can install all different types of new hot water heaters, and we can help you to go without the inconvenience of being without hot water for any length of time.
