Most water heaters last 8-12 years before needing replacement. In Haltom City homes, hard water and heavy use can sometimes shorten this lifespan. While repairs can fix many issues, certain signs indicate replacement is the smarter choice:

• Your water heater is over 10 years old
• Rusty water comes from hot water taps
• The tank shows signs of leaking or rust
• Repairs would cost more than half a new unit
• Your water heater no longer meets your family's needs

Leak Wranglers Plumbing LLC provides honest assessments to help you decide between repair and replacement. We never recommend replacement when a simple fix would solve your problem.

Selecting the perfect replacement water heater involves several important factors. Leak Wranglers Plumbing LLC helps Haltom City families make the best choice based on:

• Household size and typical hot water demand
• Available space for the new unit
• Fuel type options (gas, electric, hybrid)
• Energy efficiency preferences and budget concerns
• Future needs as your family grows or changes

We provide side-by-side comparisons of suitable models, clearly explaining the pros and cons of each option. Our goal is to help you make an informed decision you'll be happy with for years to come.

When facing water heater problems, deciding between replacement and repair can be challenging. Leak Wranglers Plumbing LLC uses these guidelines to help Haltom City homeowners make sound decisions:

Consider replacement when:
