Stay with the old...Or go with the new?

Your electric water heater has a lifespan of eight to twelve years. It is possible to repair an older electric water heater but if it is older than seven years, that may not be the best financial decision in the long run. The cost for service to repair an older unit today, coupled with future repair costs might be better applied to a new water heater where you will not have the need for continued service calls. Additionally, todays electric water heaters are more efficient than those of a decade ago, so you will achieve savings on utility bills.

 

Flushing can prolong water heater life

It is possible to prolong the life of your electric water heater by performing regular maintenance.  Flushing out sediment buildup is a good place to start. At minimum, flush your electric water heater once a year, or every six months if you have particularly hard water. If this is a service that you would like to have performed for you, Allied Reddi-Rooter has been performing water heater maintenance for over 70 years.
