If your existing water heater isn’t providing adequate hot water, high fuel prices mean it is costing too much to operate your natural gas water heater, electric water heater, or propane water heater, or your old water heater isn’t as energy efficient as it used to be when heating water, water heater repair may not be the solution to your problems, and you need to replace a water heater instead.
Depending on your needs, you can choose from either conventional water heaters (more commonly known as tank water heaters) or a tankless unit. There are electric water heaters and natural gas water heaters available in each type of water heater. The right new water heater depends on your household’s hot water needs and preferences. If you want energy-efficient models that take up less space, go with tankless water heaters. If you need a model where water heats in advance and is readily available to flow through your hot water lines, choose a tank water heater.

Tankless heaters and conventional water heaters work differently when it comes to the way they heat water.
You might think that tank-style heaters are still working just fine after a decade of use, but they can be more problematic than you might realize. The average lifespan for tank water heaters is only 8 to 12 years. If your water heater hasn’t been regularly maintained over its years of use, water heater replacement may be needed even sooner than that.
Tankless heaters typically offer many more years of use than conventional models. A tankless water heater has an average service life of 20 to 30 years. Like water heats with tanks, they also need regular maintenance to prolong their working life.
When deciding which type of water heater to select for your water heater replacement, many factors need to be considered. When considering what will work best for you in terms of space and budget, it may be wise to take a close look at your needs when deciding which type would suit you better.
You might be wondering about the water heater replacement costs- what fees are included? Does a conventional water heater cost more or less than a tankless water heater? Will I save money on water heater costs if I replace a water heater on a schedule, or is it more cost-effective to let the old water heater break down entirely before installing a water heater replacement?
Replacing one water heater with another type isn’t always cheap. A traditional vs. tankless model may vary, but even the differences between electric and natural gas models see varying prices. Typically, installation costs are higher with tankless models and water heater units powered by gas, while tank models and electric appliances are more affordable. Higher energy efficiency water heaters are more expensive than a new hot water heater with minimum energy efficiency.
There may also be additional cost factors included in your total water heater costs. These may include fees for updating your plumbing system (running cold water lines to and hot water lines from) if there isn’t a place to hook up available where you want to install a water heater. If you’re switching to a gas model, you may need to have a gas line installed or run to the installation location to power the appliance.
Check with your licensed plumber up front when replacing your old unit so you know how much financial commitment you’re making now as well as how long this expense would take place – such information can help lead you towards buying plans upfront or taking cash out loans if needed.
