When Should You Replace Your Water Heater?
The average lifespan of a water heater ranges around a decade. For most people, this means they wait until their water heater has completely stopped working before they look into replacements.
While your water heater may seem to be running properly, its age can be showing in other ways you may not yet have noticed. Efficiency levels in appliances are advancing rapidly, which means even a well-working, aged water heater is still costing you in energy savings.
Waiting until your water heater has completely stopped working can mean you feel pressure to get a replacement in a rush. Reach out to Square HVAC to discuss the age and operation of your water heater. Whether you’re shopping around or in need of a replacement now, we’re here to make sure your water heater investment is one you can rely on.
Steps To Install A New Water Heater Are Mentioned Below
Cut Off the Electricity or Gas
Before you install your shiny new heater, remove the old one from its place. To do that, cut off the electric supply at the circuit breaker or gas at its source. To double check, use a circuit tester for voltage detection. It’s always better to be safe than sorry.
Empty Out the Tank
Check for the hot water faucet and let the hot water run. Once it turns cold, shut off the cold water supply to the heater. This valve will be located on the top part of your heater. Now connect the drain valve to a garden hose to drain all the water outside.
Remove the Plumbing
Once your tank has been drained, disconnect all the supply lines. This includes both the cold and hot water supply lines. To cut the pipes, use a pipe cutter and make sure you don’t get your hands!
Remove The Old Tank
Once you’ve successfully performed all the above steps, remove your old heater. Use a helper or a dolly to help you move the heavy tank out of the way.
Connect Hot and Cold Water Supply
Use a wire brush to clean the water pipe threads. Now connect the cold and hot water supply pipes very carefully. Make sure that you leave a little space when connecting these pipes.

Install the Gas Line
Before proceeding, make sure that the gas supply is turned off. Now remove the sticker from the gas control valve. This is the spot where the gas line will connect. Now using two wrenches attach the gas nipple to the gas control valve. Make sure you do that with a tight grip. But DO NOT turn on the gas yet!

FAQ
Most tank-style water heaters last about eight to 12 years. Tankless water heaters last 15 to 20 years. Around this time, the appliance starts running less efficiently and becomes more prone to failure.
While most people wait until their water heater stops working to replace it, this can be incredibly stressful, especially if the water heater fails catastrophically and floods your home. It’s much more convenient to shop for a replacement water heater around the 10-year or 15-year mark, depending on what type of water heater you have.
The flame should be blue with yellow tips. If it appears more yellow-orange, this is a sign of incomplete burning, which could lead to not only poor water heater performance but also the production of deadly carbon monoxide! Check your burner every now and then, particularly if you’re experiencing problems with your hot water.
That depends on the cause of the problem. If the temperature and pressure (T&P) valve fails to turn off your water heater when the temperature or pressure is too high, your water heater could explode. However, many water heater leaks are caused by other issues (such as sediment buildup that leads to corrosion), so the explosion of your tank isn’t the top concern. In any case, you should call a plumber if you notice any type of leak around your water heater.
A standard water heater is comprised of a large tank that holds around 60 to 100 gallons of water. The appliance must store the water between 120 and 140 degrees F at all times so it’s ready at a moment’s notice. This requires a great deal of energy and puts incredible strain on the unit, which is why storage water heaters wear out after only eight to 12 years.
Tankless water heaters, on the other hand, generate hot water on demand. Powerful electric elements or gas burners create an impressive temperature rise when you call for hot water. Once the water turns off, so does the tankless unit, saving energy and reducing wear and tear
