Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from Arlington homeowners.
Replace your water heater in Arlington when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.
Standard tank water heater replacement in Arlington typically takes 2 to 3 hours including disconnection, removal, installation, and testing. Tankless water heater installation may take 3 to 5 hours depending on the venting and gas or electrical work required. Phoenician Plumbing completes most water heater replacements in Arlington in a single visit with same-day or next-day scheduling.
For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Phoenician Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your Arlington home.
Extend the life of your new water heater in Arlington by flushing the tank annually to remove sediment, replacing the anode rod every 3 to 5 years, setting the thermostat to 120°F to reduce mineral buildup and tank stress, and inspecting the T&P valve annually. Phoenician Plumbing offers annual water heater maintenance service in Arlington to keep your unit running efficiently.
