Water Heater Installation
Water heaters generally last 10 to 15 years, but over time, they can lose efficiency. Many times, repairing an older system is more costly than replacing the entire unit. Both gas and electrical units contain the same basic components:
- Storage tank from 20 to 120-gallon capacities
- Heating element or pilot light
- Connecting water pipes
- Thermostat
- Drain valve
- safety pressure release valve
When problems do occur with these components, they are not usually extremely costly to repair or replace. However, most storage tanks contain a glass or porcelain enamel lining to protect the interior of the water storage tank from rust and corrosion in conjunction with auxiliary anode rods. Over time, there is a chance that a crack or chip in the lining will allow water to come into contact with the steel tank. This creates an environment conducive to corrosion, causing pinholes in the tank which may ultimately result in tank failure.
