Water heater replacement involves removing an old or malfunctioning water heating system and installing a new one in its place. This process typically includes shutting off the water and gas or electricity supply to the existing water heater, draining it, disconnecting it from the plumbing and power source, removing it from its location, and then installing a new water heater. It's important to consider the type and size of the new water heater, ensuring it suits the needs of the household in terms of capacity, energy efficiency, and fuel type (electric, gas, solar, etc.). This task often requires professional expertise to ensure proper installation and safety.
Over time, water heaters become less efficient, leading to higher energy costs. Replacing an old water heater with a newer, more energy-efficient model can save on utility bills.
