TIME FOR A NEW WATER HEATER?
Signs Your Water Heater Needs Replacement
Most tank water heaters last 8-12 years. If yours is showing any of these symptoms, it may be time for a replacement:
- Age over 10 years — even if it still works, efficiency drops significantly and failure risk increases
- Rusty or discolored hot water — indicates internal tank corrosion that cannot be repaired
- Rumbling or popping sounds — sediment buildup hardening on the tank bottom
- Leaking around the base — a leaking tank cannot be patched; replacement is the only fix
- Not enough hot water — may indicate a failing heating element or a tank that is undersized for your household
We help you choose the right replacement — tank or tankless — based on your household size, hot water demand, and budget.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Water Heater FAQs for Bremerton, Kitsap County, Gig Harbor & Tacoma
How long does a water heater last, and when should I replace it?
Most tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years; a well-maintained tankless unit can last 20 years or more. If your tank is over 10 years old, leaks from the tank body, or gives rusty or lukewarm water, replacement usually costs less over time than repeated repairs. Thermocouples, elements, anode rods and relief valves on a younger tank are usually worth repairing. See the signs it is time to replace a water heater.
Should I choose a tank or a tankless water heater?
A 40 or 50 gallon tank has the lower upfront cost and suits most homes with standard hot water demand. A tankless unit costs more to install but heats on demand, never runs out and lasts longer. We size either one to your household and your gas or electric supply. Read our tankless water heater installation guide for Kitsap County.
My water heater is leaking. What should I do?
Turn off the power at the breaker (electric) or set the gas valve to OFF or pilot (gas), then close the cold water supply valve on top of the tank. Keep people and pets away from hot water and call us at (360) 551-1981. More steps in what to do if your water heater is leaking.
How much does water heater replacement cost in Kitsap County?
It depends on the type and size of the heater, gas or electric, and any venting or code upgrades the install needs, so we quote each job. Estimates are free and written upfront, with no hidden fees, and include parts, labor and disposal of the old unit. For typical price ranges, see our water heater replacement cost guide.
Do I need a licensed plumber and a permit to replace a water heater?
In Washington, replacing a water heater normally needs a permit, and the install must meet code for venting, seismic strapping and the temperature and pressure relief valve. Pelican Plumbing is licensed, bonded and insured in Washington, with 7+ years of experience, and every installation is done to code.
