How long do water heaters last?

Tank water heaters typically last 8-12 years. Tankless units can last 15-20 years with proper maintenance. If your tank water heater is over 10 years old and leaking, replacement is usually the better option.

Why is my water heater making noise?

Popping or rumbling noises usually indicate sediment buildup in the tank. Flushing the tank can resolve this. If the noise is severe, sediment may have hardened and the tank may need replacement.
