How Does an Electric Water Heater Work?
Electric water heaters use a pair of resistance-based heating elements to bring the cool water from the supply up to temperature quickly and efficiently. A thermostat keeps track of the water temperature and turns the heating elements on and off as necessary to maintain your desired temperature. As your electric water heater ages, several things can happen to reduce its performance or cause it to fail:
- The heating elements or thermostat can fail, preventing proper heating
- Sediment can accumulate in the tank, reducing capacity and performance
- Minerals or limescale can accumulate in the pipes, limiting water flow
- Sediment or minerals can clog the heat exchanger on tankless water heaters
- Leaks can form in the plumbing, valves, and fittings
- Corrosion can eat away at the tank, causing leaks
- The wiring can loosen, corrode, or degrade, causing a loss of power

Frequently Asked Questions about Electric Water Heaters
Are Electric Water Heaters Cheaper to Purchase than Gas Water Heaters?
They are cheaper, but the trade-off is that they can cost slightly more to operate due to fluctuations in utility rates.
Can a Power Outage Shut down My Electric Water Heater?
When the power goes down, so, too, will an electric water heater. However, if that’s a concern, you can always install a whole-home generator system that will provide sufficient electricity to operate your water heater, lights, appliances, and more.
How Long Will an Electric Water Heater Last?
Most modern electric water heaters are designed to last between eight to 12 years. The better you maintain the system, the longer and more efficiently it will operate.
