Water Heater Repair vs. Replacement: How to Decide
If your water heater isn’t working as it should, the big question is whether you should repair or replace it.
Here are some guidelines to help you decide:
Age of the Unit
Traditional tank water heaters usually last 8–12 years, while tankless systems often last 15–20 years. If yours is nearing the end of its expected lifespan, replacement is often the smarter long-term investment.
Frequency of Problems
The cost of repeated service calls adds up if you’ve had multiple breakdowns in the past year. That’s often the “tipping point” where replacement becomes more economical. A general rule is that when a repair will cost more than 50% of the price of a new water heater, replacement is usually the better choice.
Energy Efficiency
Newer models, especially tankless systems, are significantly more energy-efficient. Upgrading might lower your monthly utility bills, making replacement more cost-effective in the long run and helping you immediately recoup some of your costs in the short run.
At Legacy Valley, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all answers. Our plumbers will inspect your system, explain the condition of your current unit, and give you an honest recommendation customized to your home, budget, and hot water needs.
