How Old is Your Water Heater?

If you have been “whistling past the graveyard” with your water heater you probably should pay some attention to replacing it.  Have you had it for more than a decade?  If so, it may be past its expiration date and you may be headed for a flooded basement or garage.  Problems with water heaters often happen without warning.  If you notice ANY leaking whatsoever coming from your water heater it will only get worse.

Even if your water heater is less than a decade old, a few maintenance repairs may be necessary at this time.  If your heater won't stay lit, or leaks water continuously it is time to at the very least have your water heater accessed by a professional.  You may find that repairs, rather than replacement, is an option.  Wouldn’t that be nice?
