Signs You Need a New Water Heater

How can you tell that you need a new water heater? While a full water heater breakdown is obvious, other signs are less so. Here are some common indicators that you need to consider replacing your water heater with the help of Axberg:

  • Age Most water heaters have a lifespan of 6 – 12 years. If your water heater is in that age range, it’s going to need to be replaced soon.
  • Visual deteriorationIf your water heater tank is showing visual signs of a problem, then you should consider replacing it.
  • High energy bills An old water heater may be working harder than it needs to and, in turn, raising your energy bills unnecessarily. Replacing your water heater with a new, more efficient one, could lower your high energy bills.
  • Regular repairsIf you are having to schedule repairs on a regular basis, consider replacing your water heater to eliminate the problem and to save you money in the long run.

Are you noticing these signs? Axberg’s team can help you find and install a new water heater that will eliminate them. Give us a call at (815) 873-6003 to schedule your water heater replacement.

Tankless Versus Traditional Water Heaters

If you need a new water heater, you are going to have to decide between a tankless model or a traditional one with a tank. Both have benefits and drawbacks to consider.

Tankless water heaters are more efficient and provide immediate hot water the moment you turn on the tap. Though they can be more expensive to install, they come with a number of other benefits that outshine this one drawback. They take up less space, there’s a lower chance of them running out of hot water, they have a longer lifespan, and they have a lower chance of sediment gathering in them because there’s no large tank that is storing water.

Traditional water heaters are easier and less costly to install, but they do cost more to run. Because they store hot water inside a tank, some heat energy is going to be lost during normal operation.

Are you wondering which one is best for you? Contact Axberg to learn more about the benefits and drawbacks of each option, so you can make an informed choice for your family.

Axberg Reviews
Technician focused on sales on not repair. Wanted me to buy a new furnace due to "cracked heat exchanger". I got a second opinion. (1) Heat exchanger has a lifetime warranty (parts and labor) thru Carrier. Black Diamond salesman/tech failed to mention that. (2) Turns out there was absolutely nothing wrong with heat exchanger or furnace. Fault traced to buildup of wasp nests in intake, so sensor tripped for low airflow. 10 minutes to clean. The whole experience with Black Diamond appears in hindsight to be a scam bordering on fraud.
