Water heater maintenance, repair and replacement guide
Compare maintenance needs, repair questions and installation options.
Maintenance, repair or replacement
Start with the equipment condition and how the property uses hot water. Gather the model, fuel type, service history and symptoms. These guides explain the questions that help determine the next step; they do not replace an inspection.
Compare capacity, access, connections and maintenance before choosing equipment. For a business or shared building, include who authorizes work and how a shutdown will be coordinated.
