Is Your Hot Water Tank More Than 10 Years Old?
Most tanks fail without warning. When they do — it's never just the tank that pays the price.
⚠ Warning Signs To Watch For Right Now
-
Rust stains or moisture on the floor — A small stain near the base is the first sign of a failing seal. Most homeowners ignore it until it's too late.
-
Your tank is over 10 years old — Average lifespan is 8–12 years. After that, failure risk jumps dramatically every single year.
-
Rumbling or popping sounds — Sediment buildup causes overheating. That noise is your tank deteriorating from the inside out.
-
Slower hot water recovery — A struggling tank works twice as hard and fails twice as fast.

What West Michigan Homeowners Say
"I needed a new water heater and wasn't satisfied with the responses I got from Lowe's and Home Depot. Joe was able to come to my house the next day to quote the job. His price was much better compared to the big box guys, and he completed the installation the next day. Excellent in every regard."
"Very responsive, on-time, professional, thorough and pleasant to work with. Everything you'd want from a service company. I'd highly recommend Adams."
