Signs You Need Gas Tank Water Heater Replacement

Recognizing these warning signs helps prevent unexpected cold showers and potential water damage. If you notice any of these issues, contact our team for professional assessment:

Age Over 8-10 Years

Gas water heaters typically last 8-12 years in San Diego. Units over 10 years old often need frequent repairs and operate less efficiently.

Rusty or Cloudy Hot Water

Brown, yellow, or cloudy hot water indicates internal tank corrosion. This problem typically requires complete replacement rather than repair.

Strange Noises

Banging, popping, or rumbling sounds suggest sediment buildup. Advanced cases may need tank replacement instead of simple flushing.

Water Around Unit

Leaks around your gas water heater indicate tank failure or fitting problems. Safety requires immediate professional inspection and likely replacement.

Inconsistent Water Temperature

Water that runs hot then cold or never gets hot enough often means gas control valve problems or tank deterioration.

Higher Gas Bills

Sudden increases in gas costs without usage changes indicate declining efficiency. Modern gas water heaters use 20-30% less energy.
