"The Water Heater Wizard has been amazing. Hes done a bunch of things for me not just the water heater. Because of him I have a fully built out bathroom. 10/10 I recommend him to people every chance I get. The photo of the new bathroom is the update after the main drain had so much corrosion that it it flooded the house. These are pictures of how it used to look and the issues that where resolved."

"Jose of Smart Choice Plumbing did an excellent job of installing a new water heater. He is professional, knowledgeable, honest and conscientious about his work. He did a thorough job, and cleaned the work area when he was done. He also charges a fair price for his work. I would highly recommend him for any plumbing job."

"Came out the same day I called them. Did the work at that time. Balt knew what he was doing and did a nice job. More things ended up needing doing, but the plumbing was over 40 years old, so not surprising. Quickly took care of unexpected problems and didn't let anything bother him. I felt the price was a bit high, but then I haven't used a professional plumber in many years."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Signs your electric water heater is failing include inconsistent water temperature, reduced hot water supply, longer heating times, or discolored water (rusty or cloudy). Unusual noises like popping or rumbling suggest sediment buildup, while leaks or corrosion around the tank signal structural damage. If your unit is over 10 to 15 years old and experiencing frequent issues, it may be time to replace it.

Yes, hybrid water heaters can be noisy — noisier than traditional water heaters. The sound they produce is often compared to the hum of a dishwasher. Its noise comes from the heat pump’s fan and compressor as they work to pull in and compress the air. While it’s not totally disruptive, especially if the unit is installed in less frequented areas, like a basement or garage, it’s something to keep in mind if you’re sensitive to noise or if the unit will be placed near bedrooms or living spaces.

The lifespan of a water heater depends on its type, usage, and maintenance schedule. Traditional tank-style water heaters typically last between 8 and 12 years, though the range can be as wide as 6 to 15 years. Within this category, gas models often last 8-12 years, while electric models may last 10-15 years. In contrast, tankless water heaters have a significantly longer lifespan, often lasting up to 20 years or more. Factors like heavy usage, hard water, and sediment buildup can shorten a unit's life. To extend its lifespan, it is crucial to perform regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank annually and scheduling professional inspections. If your unit is over a decade old and shows signs of rust, leaks, strange noises, or inconsistent heating, it is likely time for a replacement.

A well-maintained hot water recirculating pump can last 5 to 15 years. Pumps that run continuously may have a shorter lifespan than demand-controlled models. Hard water can reduce longevity by causing mineral buildup in the pump and pipes. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, can extend the pump’s lifespan.

Gas water heaters last between eight and 12 years on average. You can help them reach their maximum lifespan with regular cleanings, maintenance, and professional checkups, though don’t hesitate to swing for a full replacement if the total cost of repairs is greater than that of purchasing and installing a new unit.
