Know the signs

Repair or replace?

A diagnosis tells you which. These are the signs we look for.

Water under the tank

A leaking tank can’t be repaired. Valves and fittings often can.

Rusty hot water

Rust on the hot side only points to a corroding tank or a spent anode rod.

Popping or rumbling

Sediment on the bottom of the tank. Caught early, a flush often fixes it.

Running out of hot water

A failed element, thermostat or burner part, or a heater too small for the house.

Questions

Water heaters, answered.

Answers from licensed plumbers. Still unsure? Call (509) 535-5946, 24 hours a day.

How much does a new water heater cost?
Installed prices at Gold Seal start from $2,026 for a 50-gallon electric tank and from $2,271 for a 40-gallon gas tank. Heat pump water heaters start from $4,473 and new tankless installs from $5,908. Take $299 off a new water heater, installed.
How long does a water heater last in Spokane?
Most tank water heaters last eight to twelve years. Mineral scale settles in the tank and shortens its life, so a yearly flush is the best way to reach the top of that range. Our tank flush special is $89.
Is a tankless water heater worth it here?
It can be if you run out of hot water or want the floor space back. Tankless units cost more to install, often need gas line and venting upgrades, and groundwater here runs cold in winter, which affects sizing. For a large household we tell you honestly whether tankless or a high-recovery tank fits better.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
Repair when the tank is sound and a part failed: a thermostat, element, thermocouple, gas valve or relief valve. Replace when the tank leaks, is badly corroded or is past about ten years. A leaking tank can’t be repaired.
Is a heat pump water heater a good choice?
In the right spot, yes. A heat pump water heater uses about 60% less energy than a standard electric one. It needs enough air around it and cools the room it sits in, which is less welcome in a cold basement in winter. Ours start from $4,473 installed.
