Common Questions About Water Heaters

What homeowners ask us most often before booking water heaters.

Repair, or replace?

Under 8 years old and not leaking? Usually repair. Over 10 years, leaking from the tank itself, or repeatedly failing? Replace. A leaking tank is not a repair — it means the inner steel has corroded through and the unit is at end of life. We never sell a replacement when a $200 part will get you another few good years.

Tank or tankless when I replace?

Tank is cheaper up front, simpler venting, and the right choice for most homes that already have one. Tankless wins on operating cost, hot-water endurance, and lifespan if you are planning to be in the home 10+ years. We quote both when you ask.

What size do I need?

Roughly 40 gallons for 1–2 people, 50 for 3–4, 75+ for households with multiple simultaneous showers or large soaking tubs. Recovery rate (gas vs electric, BTU) matters as much as gallons.
