Richmond hot water heaters generally last between eight and twelve years for standard gas and electric storage tank models, aligning with general industry durability standards. Units installed in regions with severe hard water can experience accelerated mineral scaling that shortens this lifespan unless preventative maintenance is performed. Maintaining the system through periodic flushing, checking anode rods, and ensuring proper thermal expansion tank installation will protect the inner glass-lined steel tank from premature failure.
