Your water heater makes it easier for you to wash dishes, take showers, and clean laundry. When it stops working, you quickly realize how much you rely on having a reliable source of hot water. In some cases, it’s possible to repair a malfunctioning unit rather than replacing it. For example, if you have a bad heating element, simply replacing the element should be enough to get your water heater up and running again. When the problem is more extensive, you need Beltway Air Conditioning, Heating & Plumbing to help you with water heater installation in Columbia, MD.

It also makes sense to replace your water heater if it’s nearing the end of its useful life. Depending on the type of unit you have, its useful life may be as little as 8 years to as much as 15 years.
