Before you call
- Leaking? Turn off the power or gas to the heater and close the cold-water valve above it – see water heater leaking. A. O. Smith’s manual notes that all water heaters eventually leak (A. O. Smith – Residential gas water heater manual (PDF)).
- Repair or replace? The U.S. Department of Energy says most water heaters last 10 to 15 years (U.S. Department of Energy – Energy Savers guide (PDF)), and that tankless units are expected to last more than 20 (U.S. Department of Energy – Tankless or demand-type water heaters). Note the age on the label before you call.
- No hot water? Check power or gas, the pilot or burner, and the setting first – no hot water checklist.
- Temperature. The Consumer Product Safety Commission recommends setting water heaters to 120 degrees F to prevent scalds (U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission – Avoiding tap water scalds (PDF)).
Choosing a new one? Tank vs tankless water heater.
Questions to ask a Chicago plumber
- Is it worth repairing at this age, or should it be replaced?
- Will you pull the permit if one is required here?
- Is haul-away of the old heater included?
- What warranty comes with the heater, and with your labor?
Licensing in Illinois
