Common questions about water heater replacement in Willowdale.
Replace your water heater in Willowdale when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.
Extend the life of your new water heater in Willowdale by flushing the tank annually to remove sediment, replacing the anode rod every 3 to 5 years, setting the thermostat to 120°F to reduce mineral buildup and tank stress, and inspecting the T&P valve annually. Magnet Plumbing offers annual water heater maintenance service in Willowdale to keep your unit running efficiently.
For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Magnet Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your Willowdale home.
Tank water heaters cost less upfront and are simpler to install. Tankless units provide endless hot water on demand and typically have lower operating costs, but cost more initially. For most Willowdale families, a quality tank unit in the correct size is the most cost-effective choice. Our plumbers help you compare the total cost of ownership for your specific situation.

"We noticed our water bill doubling month over month and could not find anything visible. These guys came out with the leak detection equipment and located a slab leak under the living room in about thirty minutes. The repair was minimally invasive — small access cut, patched afterward, and the bill is back to normal. Really impressed with the professionalism."
