Is It Time For A New Water Heater In Issaquah?

Are you unsure if it is time to replace the water heater in your Issaquah property? There are some signs that any homeowner can look for, and our team at Westview Plumbing is also here to help. Whether you want to upgrade or wish to replace a failing water heater, we have the brands and services you need.

For many homeowners, having running hot water is a luxury they may not consider or even worry about until something goes wrong. Average people use warm water roughly 20x each day in the home. However, it would help if you also were proactive about maintaining your system. But when should you think about a total replacement?

The suggested average lifespan of most traditional water heaters ranges between 8 to 12 years. Tankless water heaters may last up to a few decades before you need to replace them. No matter the type of system you have, over time, it can erode. You need to monitor it for issues, especially if it is in the latter half of its lifespan.

Keep an eye on the following signs pointing to needing a water heater replacement or upgrade with a new installation:

You notice the water looks sandy, cloudy, or rusty. It is common for an older water heater to have discolored water. There are many reasons why this can happen, and it may not mean replacement. However, our technicians are happy to take a look and assess your system.
Not enough hot water, but your heating bill goes up. Lack of warm or no hot water can mean your system can’t keep up with demand. The thermostat or heating element could be failing.
You hear strange noises. When water heaters age, they may start making rumbling noises or get loud as the water works to heat up. This can be a significant sign that your heater needs replacing.

Westview plumbing did a great job for me. When my sewer first showed signs of acting up I called for emergency service on a weekend ... Not only did they not charge me a ridiculous amount for emergency/weekend help (like the other's I was calling) But Braydon was especially helpful and professional. It was because of him that I reached out again when it was clear I had a bigger problem than originally thought. Thank you Westview! All is flowing now!!

I can't say enough good things about this plumbing company! Our experience with them was absolutely exceptional. We had a plumbing emergency late at night, and they came to our rescue without hesitation. The professionalism and promptness of the whole team were truly remarkable. Sabina was my first point of contact and she was absolutely wonderful. She kept everything calm and assured me no matter what, they were going to get the issue handled for us. She really put us at ease. When our technician Andrew got to our home at 11:30 p.m., he went into action and literally saved our lives. We had done something wrong when we were trying to turn off the water to our hot water tank and left the gas on because we didn't know to turn it off. Had he not come out and taken care of it there was a good chance it would have exploded. He was incredibly kind and very knowledgeable. He acted quickly and efficiently and with great kindness. He restored our peace of mind in no time so we were able to get a few hours of sleep that night. I even had the owner if the company constantly texting me reassuring me they would get the issue resolved. WOW! What truly sets this company apart is their commitment to customer satisfaction. Not only did they address the emergency with precision, but they also went above and beyond by returning the very next morning to install a brand new water heater for us. The installation process was flawless, and Andrew made sure to clean up after himself, leaving our home in better condition than he found it. The entire team was courteous, knowledgeable, and approachable. They took the time to explain the installation process and answered all of our questions, ensuring we felt completely comfortable with our new water heater. I'm truly grateful for their outstanding service and their dedication to their customers. It's clear that this company values excellence in customer satisfaction above all else. If you're ever in need of Plumbing services, especially during an emergency, I can't recommend them enough. They are a shining example of professionalism, expertise, and customer care. Andrew is my hero! Thank you, Westview Plumbing, for your exceptional service and for going the extra mile to ensure our home is safe and comfortable. You've earned our trust and gratitude, and we will certainly be calling upon you for any future plumbing needs in addition to referring any friends, family and clients in the future.

I had a company (not Westview) tell me my clay pipes were coming disjointed and they needed to dig up my yard to fix it. I wast quoted cost at $7k. Thank God I had Westview come out to give a second opinion. My pipes are fine. A few things to keep on my radar, but I don’t need to dig up my yard and spend the money I don’t have. Even if I did need to do that, Westview was much more understanding of my finances and I got the feeling that they genuinely wanted to help me find a solution. I can’t even begin to say how grateful I am for the service received. I called in crisis mode, and they managed to save me from it. I’m saving them in my phone for future needs. So appreciative. Thank you again.

The team from Westview Plumbing was great. They arrived when they said, did work as agreed on and were able to make tweaks to the original plan as they went. We are doing a major remodel and they worked with us not having our sinks, tub, faucets or valves yet. We had a couple of estimates and theirs was much less than one....on par with another...we went with them because we liked the attitute and willingness to make it work. Glad we did! Highly recommend them if you are looking for any plumbing work. Also they were willing and able to start our job quickly.

Westview Plumbing went above and beyond for us in countless ways. We had major work done: our waste and water repiped, digging all the way to repipe to city supply. We also had a whole house filter installation, and new septic and water heater install. The difference for us after all of this work is night and day! Westview performed a miracle, completing this work at lightning speed, knowing we were having an upcoming wedding (at our home)--they worked late into the night several days in a row to get the bulk of the work completed and was truly mind blowing and magical. They had all troops on the ground, and it made such an incredible difference and impact for us. You’d be hard pressed to find with ANY company. Special shoutout to Josh, Dalton, Sunny, Heather, Markus, Noah and Mike. Dart and Wendy did scheduling and are always so easy to work with and so helpful. We look forward to our continuing relationship with Westview and consider them a tremendous asset in the continuing care for our home. Thank you Westview!
