Signs That Your Unit Needs To Be Replaced
Water heaters have an average life span of 10 years, but tankless models can last up to three decades. Your equipment won’t achieve its whole life span without annual maintenance, so if you’ve reneged on services, you might require a replacement sooner than you think. Your water heater probably needs to be replaced if:
- You’ve spotted discoloration in your hot water: Rusty tanks are difficult to repair and prone to breakage.
- It’s stopped producing hot water: Inefficiency could be caused by a broken element, but if this occurs toward the end of your water heater’s life span, a replacement may be more cost-effective.
- You have persistent sediment: Muddy or sandy water is often repairable, but if the problem is ongoing and coexists with heating inefficiency, you may need a new tank.
- Your tank has burst: Over 40% of water heaters burst after nine years.

Expert Installation
Water heater installation isn’t an easy affair. Your team must install multiple technologies, from valves and discharge pipes to fittings and bolts. That requires precision work and attention to detail. The better your installation, the better your water heater’s life span, so your choice of installation team will affect your pocket significantly.
4Front Energy will meticulously fit and calibrate your equipment, keeping with your building codes. Our team has a balanced set of skills incorporating electrical knowledge, plumbing excellence, regulatory expertise, and more.
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters only heat your water when you use it. That lengthens their life span and reduces maintenance costs. It does, of course, also reduce your energy use. They’re up to 34% more energy-efficient than storage tank water heaters, and to add to those benefits, you can finally wave goodbye to cold water no matter how many family members have showered before you. 4Front Energy offers a same-day installation service. Our repairs come with no-surprise pricing so that you can maintain control of your budget. We also provide routine maintenance to undo the last year’s wear and tear.

FAQs
How long does it take to install a tankless water heater?
It generally takes between four and six hours to install a tankless system. Your installation time will shrink if you use trained, well-equipped, licensed plumbers. Even so, every installation is different, and if your property presents unique challenges, your team may want to spend a little more time on your replacement.
How long do traditional water heaters last?
Traditional water heaters usually last between 10 and 15 years. Once they’ve entered the gray zone after their first decade, your repairs will begin to mount up. How you treat your system will also have an impact, so its life span could increase if you perform regular maintenance and use your water heater infrequently.
