For most of us, our water heaters don’t take up much room in our thoughts. Most of them are kept in out-of-the-way areas where foot traffic isn’t exactly common. It can be tough to tell when your water heater is crying out for a full replacement or if a quick fix is all that’s needed.
Luckily, we’ve been handling water heater replacements in Levittown, PA, for decades and know exactly when a repair or replacement is the best call.

Here’s when you should think about going for a full water heater replacement:
If you’re on the market for a replacement water heater (or will be soon), it can be helpful to have a bit of starting information to go on. Here are some common types of heaters we see during our water heater replacements in Levittown, PA.
It really depends on the complexities related ot each job. A straightforward replacement where everything is set and ready to accept the new water heater should only take a few hours (think 2-3). However, if you’re switching to a new fuel type, changing over to a tankless unit, or moving your water heater to a new area, the timeline will obviously extend a bit. Your technician should let you know how long your replacement will take.
It depends on the model, but most traditional storage-tank water heaters usually last about 8 to 12 years. If you upgrade to a tankless model, you can expect service that lasts for almost 20 years. However, getting the most out of your water heater requires regular maintenance and repairs when things go wrong.
Going for a more proactive approach is a better choice. Planning a replacement ahead of time gives you some space to shop for a new model, schedule the water heater replacement for a time that works for you, and generally take your time to get things done. If you wait for a breakdown, you’re suddenly on the clock to get your hot water back as quickly as possible.
