HOW OLD IS YOUR WATER HEATER?

Water heater date codes can be useful information. Knowing the date when your water heater was manufactured can help you or a service technician determine if it's still under factory warranty. Knowing its age will also help determine if it has served its useful life and is ready to be replaced. Most water heaters in the Sacramento region last an average of 12 years.

 

Date codes are usually found within the serial number of your water heater. Click on this link to find your brand of water heater and learn how to read the date code. You can print this PDF file if needed.
