For homeowners in areas like Boulder Creek, Ben Lomond, Felton, Scotts Valley, Santa Cruz, and Los Gatos, propane water heaters are often the preferred choice due to limited access to natural gas lines. Whether you're dealing with an aging propane water heater or your current unit is no longer functioning efficiently, SAV Water Heaters specializes in propane water heater replacement to ensure you have a reliable source of hot water.

Propane Water Heater ReplacementWhy Replace Your Propane Water Heater?

While propane water heaters are built to last, like all appliances, they do eventually wear out. Here are some common reasons why you might need to replace your propane water heater:

  • Age of the Unit: Most propane water heaters have a lifespan of 8-12 years. If your water heater is within this age range and showing signs of wear, it may be time for a replacement.
  • Leaking Tank: If you notice water pooling around the base of your water heater, it’s likely that the tank has developed a leak. In most cases, a leaking tank can’t be repaired and will need to be replaced.
  • Inconsistent Hot Water: Are you running out of hot water faster than usual? This could indicate that your water heater is no longer able to heat water efficiently.
  • Higher Energy Bills: As water heaters age, they become less efficient, leading to higher propane consumption and increased energy bills. Replacing your old unit with a new, more energy-efficient model can help reduce your energy costs.
  • Safety Concerns: A malfunctioning water heater can pose serious safety risks, such as gas leaks or carbon monoxide emissions. It’s essential to replace faulty units as soon as possible.
