How old is your water heater?
Most standard tank water heaters last around 8–12 years, but age, water quality, usage, and maintenance can all impact performance. If your system is making noises, showing signs of rust, leaking, or struggling to keep up with hot water demand, it may be time to have it checked.
A few smart safety reminders:
✔️ Keep the area around your water heater clear
✔️ Watch for leaks, rust, or corrosion
✔️ Set water temperature around 120°F
✔️ Schedule routine maintenance to help extend system life
Whether you need maintenance, repair, or a full water heater replacement, Red Cap Plumbing, Air & Electric is here to help Tampa Bay homeowners stay safe, comfortable, and prepared.
