Should You Replace Your Water Heater?
According to the manufacturer's recommended service life, a water heater can last from 8-12 years. Naturally, this depends on the quality of the installation and the location of the unit.
When your heater is more than 10 years old and has problems, it's probably a good time to consider replacing it for a modern, more energy efficient water heater - that can also reduce your monthly energy costs.
A simple repair may be all that's needed to get hot water flowing again in your home. Be In Comfort will conduct a comprehensive diagnostic inspection and share our findings with you.
Our no-nonsense recommendations will be exactly what you require. We can do some calculations so you can determine what is most appropriate for your situation.
7 Advantages Of Having A New Water Heater
Less Hassle - A new water heater should have you not even having to think about your water heater for 8+ years to come.
Energy Efficient - Modern water heaters use less energy than older models.
Lower Energy Bills - Lower energy use means a lower energy bill.
Environment-Friendly - Since new units are not using as much energy, you're lowering your carbon footprint.
Enough Hot Water For Your Shower - If you tend to run out of hot water during your shower, then that will be a thing of the past.
Enough Hot Water For Other Family Members - A new heating unit will likely have capacity for one or more additional family member showers, too. Plus, it will heat water more quickly.

Water Heater Safety Tip
Especially important in Northern California, water heaters that are not properly secured can often tip over and cause gas and water connections to be ruptured. Your water heater is not properly secured if it's missing two straps that completely wrap around its circumference and are attached to the wall studs or masonry.
5 Water Heater Maintenance Tips
Modern water heaters are designed to be easy-to-maintenance. However, these tips can help prolong the life of your heater.
Murky Water, Sediment & Corrosion - To remove any sediment or corrosion, drain the water heater at least twice per year. This will also increase efficiency.
Test Pressure Relief Valve - You can test the pressure relief valve by raising the handle of the valve and letting it retract. The overflow drainpipe should then burst with water. Install a new valve if it does not.
Adjust The Thermostat - The preferred temperature setting for a home water heater is 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Overheating can cause damage to the tank. Note that the default temperature setting for a water heater is typically 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
Insulate The Water Heater - Modern water heaters are insulated pretty well. But, you can make them more so by wrapping them in a water heater blanket.
Insulate The Pipes - Insulating the hot-water pipe will prevent heat from escaping to the air at all times of the year. Condensation in summer is prevented by insulation of the cold water pipe.
