What Causes Water Heaters to Fail?
Water heaters can fail for a variety of reasons, including:
- Sediment Accumulation: Minerals in hard water can settle at the bottom of the tank over time, which can reduce efficiency and cause overheating, potentially damaging the tank.
- Corrosion: The anode rod in water heaters is designed to attract corrosive elements. Once it becomes too corroded and isn’t replaced, the tank can start to corrode.
- High Water Pressure: Excessive water pressure can put stress on the tank and its components, leading to leaks and failure.
- Malfunctioning Thermostat: A thermostat that doesn’t work properly can cause the water to overheat, stressing the tank and causing damage.
- Aging: Water heaters typically last between 8-12 years. As they age, their components wear out, making failure more likely.
- Electrical Problems: For electric water heaters, issues with wiring or heating elements can lead to failure.
- Improper Installation: If a water heater isn’t installed correctly, it can result in problems such as leaks or poor heating performance, eventually causing failure.
- Lack of Maintenance: Regular maintenance, like flushing the tank to remove sediment and checking the anode rod, is crucial for prolonging the life of a water heater.
- Leaks: Leaks from the tank or its connections can cause significant damage if not addressed promptly.
- Heavy Use: In homes with high hot water demand, water heaters may wear out faster due to constant use.

Replacing Your Water Heater
The typical water heater lasts for around 10-15 years, but if it doesn't receive the care and maintenance that it requires, the lifespan of the water heater could be cut in half. Look out for these signs to determine whether you should have your water heater replaced:
- Your water heater is more than 10-15 years old.
- Clicking, buzzing, humming, or other loud noises.
- Leaks or rust around your water heater.
These signs don't necessarily mean that your water heater is beyond repair, but you should contact our professionals to have your water heater inspected.
