Q: How often should a gas water heater be replaced?

• <div><p>You should replace your gas water heater when it&rsquo;s reached the end of its lifespan, which is a maximum of 12 years in most cases. If your unit is over a decade old and showing signs of inefficiency, leaks, or frequent malfunctions, it may be time to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-replace-gas-water-heater.htm">replace your water heater</a>. Research how to best maintain your gas water heater to help extend its lifespan.</p></div>

Q: Is 20 years too old for a water heater?

• <div><p>If your water heater is about to celebrate the big 2-0, you may want to consider sending it off to greener pastures. While the water heater may seem to be working well, any conventional, tanked water heater over 10 years of age is at risk of failure. If your water heater is 20 years or older, your best move is to replace your aging heater before it completely breaks down.</p></div>

Q: Will a larger water heater require a larger circuit breaker?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-size-breaker-for-water-heater.htm">larger heater requires a larger breaker</a>&mdash;unless there&rsquo;s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/electrical/">local electrical pro</a>. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install a new water heater?

• <div><p>Professional installs conclude in mere hours, with complexity differences possibly prolonging efforts slightly. Site condition often dictates the exact duration.</p></div>

Q: Should I get a tankless water heater?

• <div><p>Tankless water heaters heat water as it passes through the unit instead of storing heated water in the tank. Their ability to produce hot water on an as-needed basis makes them more efficient. However, they are generally more expensive than traditional units. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/is-a-tankless-water-heater-worth-it.htm">Is a tankless water heater worth it</a>?
