When to Replace Your Hot Water System

Most electric hot water systems last between 8 to 12 years, depending on the brand, usage and maintenance. If your system is approaching this age, it may be time to consider a replacement—especially if you’re noticing signs like inconsistent water temperature, reduced hot water supply, rusty water or strange noises coming from the unit.

Frequent breakdowns or increasing electricity bills can also indicate your system is no longer operating efficiently. In some cases, replacing an ageing unit with a new energy-efficient model can save you money in the long run. If you're unsure, we can inspect your system and give expert advice on whether a repair or full replacement is the better option for your home and budget.
