Hot water is a must in every home and a gas water heater can deliver hot water throughout homes with convenience. However, how does one know when the right time to replace a gas water heater in Toronto? Experiencing hot water is running out before done using it? This is a red flag that a water heater may be ready for a replacement. Many issues can be repaired and at other times, a repair won't fix the issue.
Purpose of a Gas Water Heater
A gas water heater keeps water heated for on-demand use throughout a home. Water heaters can range in size from smaller to very large, depending on the needs of a home. Having the correct sized tank installed helps to ensure there is not too much water being heated at any given time, raising the costs of energy for the home. A working water heater will deliver hot water throughout a home for the needed duration wanted. Contact A-Plus Quality, Heating and Cooling in Toronto and the GTA, to ensure your water heater is functioning properly.
Importance of a Gas Water Heater
A good quality water heater can last upwards of ten years. Throughout this time, the water heater may require minor repairs and maintenance. Electric water heaters are pricier in comparison to gas water heaters. Heating the water for a home will account for approximately 20% of all energy costs for the home. Natural gas is much cheaper than electricity and will save lots of money over the long term for the homeowner.
If your gas water heater is nearing the end of its lifespan or constantly experiencing issues, it may be time to replace it. For any of your HVAC needs in Toronto or the GTA, contact our team at A-Plus Quality!
