Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Oklahoma City is not type of company that just wants to sell you the most expensive option regardless of your situation. We individually assess your needs and preferences to give you our best recommendation. Repairing your water heater makes sense in most cases, but there are a lot of scenarios when you might want to opt for a replacement instead to save money or convenience:
-
Your water heater is older than 20 years. Paying for a repair to extend the life of a poorly performing unit, just for it to fail shortly afterward is not worth it to most people.
-
There are water leaks around the base of the tank. This normally indicates compromised materials that will continue to corrode and spring more leaks.
You want better hot water quality. New water heater options can provide for even large family needs, without anyone getting stuck waiting for the water to warm back up.
