Water Heater Types
There are many hot water heater types on the market today. Which suits you best? That depends on a few important factors. But don’t worry — our experts can help you decide.
- Conventional water heaters: Your “standard” tanked water heater is a reliable and effective means of gaining access to hot water. Available in a variety of gallon capacities, there’s a hot water heater option for any home. Tanked systems are also quite cost-effective, making for a reliable option to suit budgets of any size.
- Tankless water heaters: Tankless systems utilize on-demand technology to heat water rapidly, and only as needed. These systems lack a tank, instead delivering when tapped. This offers a few considerable advantages in energy efficiency (can reduce energy costs by up to 30% in many cases) as well as reducing trouble with recovery times since a tankless water heater doesn’t have a recuperation period.
- Hybrid heat pump water heaters: Hybrid water heaters are the most energy-efficient system currently available, utilizing heat pump technology to aid in water heating which saves considerably on electricity usage. These are a great option for long-term hot water and are also perfect for those who are looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
Routine Water Heater Maintenance
Routine water heater maintenance is essential to assuring that your unit is always running optimally. It can also help you prevent major problems and costly repairs while prolonging the life of your water heater. In general, it’s best to get professional water heater maintenance annually.
At Classic Aire Care, our expert plumbers specialize in providing superior maintenance service for all types of water heaters. While our water heater maintenance services may vary according to the type of unit you have, typically, they include services like:
- Performing system flush and fills

Signs Your Water Heater Needs Attention
Besides the obvious lack of hot water, there are other signs that you need water heater repair. These include:
- Discolored water: This could indicate the inside of your water tank is rusting and leaching into your water supply.
- Odd sounds: This could mean that hard water sediment is building up in your tank, possibly damaging internal components.
- Leaking: Water pooling underneath your unit is a telltale sign that the unit is cracked and may need to be replaced.
- Age: The average gas water heater lasts between eight and 10 years, and the average electric model tends to last between 10 and 15 years.
You can do some water heater troubleshooting yourself to see if the pilot light is on or if there’s adequate gas or electric service to the unit. If you’re able, you can also flush your gas or electric tank annually by attaching a garden hose to the spigot at the bottom of the unit and directing the water to the closest storm drain.
Beyond that, the journeyman plumbers of Classic Aire Care are who to call for water heater repair in the St. Louis area. They’ll inspect your system, diagnose the problem, give you a reliable repair cost estimate, or suggest a budget-friendly replacement option if necessary.
