Tank water heaters in Southern Shores typically last 8 to 12 years. Tankless units can last 15 to 20 years with regular maintenance. Factors like water hardness, usage, and maintenance schedule affect lifespan. Pipe Masters can evaluate your unit and estimate remaining life.
If your water heater is under 8 years old and the repair cost is under half the replacement cost, repair usually makes sense. Units over 10 years old with tank leaks or frequent problems are typically better replaced. Our Southern Shores plumbers give you an honest assessment.
A leaking water heater can cause water damage, mold growth, and in gas units, potential gas hazards if the leak affects combustion. Turn off the power and water supply to the unit and call Pipe Masters for immediate service in Southern Shores.
