When to Replace Your Water Heater
Water heaters should be expected to last 8-12 years. Whether or not it’s time to replace your water heater is a choice only you can make for your home. But there are factors that can help you decide:
- Age: if it’s older than 10 years, a new water heater is often most cost-effective
- Rusty Water: one of the potential sources of rusty water is your water heater
- Noise: Noise on it’s on might not be too annoying, but it often points to issues with your water heater that mean it’s operating improperly or is in danger of breaking down
- Leaks: Leaks are never good, but they can be the cause of larger issues with a water heater
- Inconsistent Heating: Shower hot water running out? Sporadic periods of cold water occurring when you least expect it? It may mean your water heater is failing.

Types of Water Heaters
At CABS, we specialize in every major type of home water heater. We can provide each depending on the needs of your home.
Gas Water Heaters
Gas water heaters use natural gas or propane, and are considered efficient and reliable options for home water heating. They generally have lower operating costs compared to electric models.
Heat Pump Water Heaters
Heat pump water heaters extract heat from the air and transfer it to water in the tank. This reduces energy consumption considerably. Heat pump water heaters are considered extremely energy-efficient compared to many alternatives.
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless systems offer the convenience of heating water on demand and not requiring a storage tank. This can be ideal for homes without adequate space or setup for a traditional heating tank.
Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of a new water heater can range from $800 to $3,000, including all equipment, labor and fees. Cost of a new water heater depends on the type, size, and cost of living where you’re at, since labor costs are a major part of any installation.
If your water heater is older than 10 years or has multiple issues keeping it from operating properly, it’s often more cost-effective to replace it. Younger water heaters with minor issues can usually be repaired more cheaply, and aren’t at a large risk of additional breakdowns.
Yes, federal, state and local rebates exist for energy-efficient home equipment, including water heaters. Since these rebates and tax credits are controlled by governmental agencies and are often dependent on funding levels, we can’t guarantee that rebates will be available when you need a new one. However, as a preferred PG&E and SMUD contractor, and also as a company who has worked with federal incentive programs, we can provide all available credits toward your water heater.
