Me, too, requires a working water heater, however no homeowner is a qualified water heater installer. It’s difficult to understand how to perform common maintenance, let alone repair work when your water heater is in trouble. The following video will address some of the most frequently asked questions and debunking myths about water heaters.

The first step is to determine when the water heater in your home should be changed. An old water heater of 10 to 15 years old might make people wonder if the time is right for replacement. Check the rating on the outside of the tank for help however, if your tank is older than 10 years the tank is most likely to be replaced within the next few months.

Another common question is on how to extend the life for the tank. There is an anode rod which is installed in brand fresh water tanks. It’s composed of magnesium. It helps keep the water clean, but erodes over time. This is like a sacrifice lamb that protects glass from being damaged. This is replaced every 2 to 3 years and can make the water heater last 20-30 years.
