Should I Repair or Replace My Water Heater?

When there’s a problem with your water heater, it’s important to think long term and consider the following:

  • How old is your system? As a good rule of thumb, tank-style water heaters usually last 10 years, while tankless water heaters average about 20 years. If your system is nearing its approximate expiration age, it may be time to consider replacement options.
  • Is it running efficiently? Your water heater accounts for about 14% of your energy bill, so if your system is not functioning properly, it could cost you more in the long run than replacing it with a more efficient system.
  • Are repair costs adding up? Whenever your water heater breaks, consider the cost of repairs versus replacement. If your repairs will cost 50% of what it would cost to replace it, installing a new system would likely better serve you.

These are just some of the things to consider as you decide whether to repair or replace your system. Fortunately, you don’t need to make the decision alone. In fact, you shouldn’t! American Vintage Home prides itself on being the older home experts in your area, and we’re happy to offer invaluable insight into your home’s hot water heater options.

Should I Install a Tankless Water Heater in My Older Home?

Tankless water heaters have gained increasing popularity with homeowners in recent years due in part to their extreme efficiency in generating hot water on demand. Instead of slowly heating your water in a 40- to 50-gallon tank, then keeping that water hot until you need it, tankless water heaters use heat exchanger tubing to create a heat-on-demand system.

Benefits of Installing a Tankless Water Heater

There are many advantages to installing a tankless water heater in your Chicago North Shore area home, including:

  • Compact size. Tankless water heaters are typically mounted on the wall and take up much less space than traditional tank-style water heaters.
  • Lower energy consumption. Because there is no tank full of water to continually keep hot, tankless water heaters are a more efficient option.
  • Longer life span. While tankless water heaters are admittedly more expensive upfront than their traditional counterpart, gas-burning tankless systems last at least double the life span, meaning more money saved over time.
  • Safety for your home. Tankless water heaters don’t pose a threat of leaking and spilling gallons of water, causing costly damage to your home and belongings. They’re also less likely than tank-style water heaters to harbor dangerous bacteria, such as Legionella.
