Good to know about water heater repair
Installing or replacing a water heater is plumbing (and, for gas units, gas fitting) work that requires a permit from the local Inspector under 248 CMR 3.05; permits are issued only to properly licensed individuals.
law.cornell.eduAccording to the U.S. Department of Energy, most storage water heaters last 10-15 years, while tankless water heaters can last more than 20 years.
energy.govDOE recommends setting your water heater to 120°F, a temperature considered safe for most of the population.
