Water Heater Replacement FAQ — East Peoria, IL

Have questions about water heater replacement in East Peoria, IL? Start here.

How do I know when to replace my water heater in East Peoria?

Replace your water heater in East Peoria when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.

Should I get a tank or tankless water heater in East Peoria?

Tank water heaters cost less upfront and are simpler to install. Tankless units provide endless hot water on demand and typically have lower operating costs, but cost more initially. For most East Peoria families, a quality tank unit in the correct size is the most cost-effective choice. Our plumbers help you compare the total cost of ownership for your specific situation.

What size water heater do I need for my East Peoria home?

For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Phoenician Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your East Peoria home.

How can I extend the life of my new water heater in East Peoria?

Extend the life of your new water heater in East Peoria by flushing the tank annually to remove sediment, replacing the anode rod every 3 to 5 years, setting the thermostat to 120°F to reduce mineral buildup and tank stress, and inspecting the T&P valve annually. Phoenician Plumbing offers annual water heater maintenance service in East Peoria to keep your unit running efficiently.

"I noticed some pooling water in my front yard. Called them and a plumber was here within an hour. Found the leak at the connection of the water main into the house about 4 feet down. Was here about six hours and did a fantastic job. Very much appreciate the prompt response and dedicated service."

— Eric Anderson
★★★★★

"Called for what I thought was a simple leak detection and they found two separate issues — one behind the wall and one under the slab. Fixed both in the same visit. Professional and thorough throughout."

— Chris Medina
★★★★★

"Had them install a tankless water heater to replace our old tank unit. The plumber was very knowledgeable about different brands and helped us pick the right size. Installation was clean and professional."
