Whether it’s rinsing off after a day in the sand or managing the demands of a busy household, the water heater plays a central role in daily routines. Garrett Plumbing is encouraging residents in Madeira Beach, Treasure Island, St. Pete Beach, Redington Beach, Belle Vista, Indian Shores, Indian Rocks, Belleair Beach, Tierra Verde, and surrounding areas to evaluate the age and performance of their water heaters—before problems arise.
Water heaters typically last 8 to 12 years. In coastal areas, exposure to salty air and humidity can accelerate wear and corrosion, making it even more important to watch for signs that replacement may be needed.
Signs It May Be Time to Replace a Water Heater:
Inconsistent or insufficient hot water
Unusual noises or rumbling from the tank
Rust-colored water or visible corrosion
Leaks around the base of the unit
Increased energy bills without increased usage
Delaying replacement can lead to sudden breakdowns, water damage, or inefficiencies that cost more over time. Garrett Plumbing helps homeowners identify whether repair or replacement is the smarter option and guides them in choosing the right solution for their home and budget.
Benefits of Modern, Energy-Efficient Models
Today’s water heaters offer improved performance and energy efficiency compared to older units. Options include traditional tank models with higher efficiency ratings, as well as tankless systems that provide endless hot water on demand. Many newer models also offer smart technology, allowing homeowners to monitor and adjust settings remotely—ideal for vacation homes or part-time residences in beach communities.
Garrett Plumbing provides expert installation of both tank and tankless systems, ensuring safe operation, proper sizing, and code compliance for long-term peace of mind.
