Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Home’s Water Heater
Living in Northern Utah means our appliances deal with specific environmental factors. You should consider a replacement if you notice:
Age: Your unit is more than 10–12 years old.
Discolored Water: Rusty or “tea-colored” water often indicates internal tank corrosion.
Noise: Popping or rumbling sounds caused by sediment buildup, a common issue due to the mineral content in Layton’s water supply.
Leaking: Any pooling water around the base of the tank is a sign of a structural fracture.
Common Causes Your Water Heater Is Leaking:
• Hard water mineral buildup (common in Weber County)
• Aging tanks in 1970s–1990s homes
• High water pressure in certain Ogden neighborhoods
• Corroded anode rods
• Loose inlet/outlet fittings
