When To Repair & When To Replace A Water Heater In Winnipeg
You probably won’t worry about an issue with your water heater until you can’t get hot water for a shower or dishwashing session. When a problem does arise, you need to determine whether repairs or a complete replacement are necessary. This decision depends on many factors including the age and condition of the unit as well as your budget.
You can repair your water heater when:
- The pilot light on a gas water heater flickers out
- The circuit breaker for an electric unit trips
- The burner or heating element fails
- The thermostat breaks
- The valve sticks
You should replace your water heater when:
It is 10-13 years old
A large leak springs
You desire more energy efficiency
Lynn’s Heating, Cooling, Sewer & Drain offers both repairs and replacement services for most makes and models of water heaters. Be sure to call for services as soon as you notice a problem, but before you get to that point it’s good to keep in mind that regular maintenance can reduce the need for repairs. Be sure to flush the tank once a year to remove sediment. This will improve the efficiency and lengthen the lifespan of your unit.
