To decide whether to repair or replace your water heater, you will want to evaluate the age, the cost of repairs, and the severity of the issue. Generally, your should replace your water heater if the tank leaks, the unit is over 10 years old, or if the repairs cost more than half the price of a new unit.
North Texas’s naturally hard water contains high levels of dissolved calcium and magnesium (often exceeding 150-200 ppm). When heated, these minerals form hard scale that settles at the bottom of your tank and damages the heating element. This forces the unit to overheat, use more energy, and fail prematurely.
