Two Building Eras, Two Kinds of Heater Setups

South Natomas was built mostly from the 1950s through the 1980s. North Natomas grew fast from the mid-1990s on, with most of its homes going up in the 1990s and 2000s.

That means many homes in the north still have the builder's original water heater, now at or past its typical service life. In the older southern neighborhoods, the heater has likely been replaced before, but the valves, connectors and venting around it may not have been.

Catching a Failing Tank Early

When the heater sits in the garage, a slow leak is easy to miss until there's water across the floor. A quick look every few months helps.

Rust at the bottom seam, rusty hot water and rumbling from sediment are the usual warning signs. If you see any of them, call before the tank gives out.

Warning signs

  • Rust at the base or fittings
  • Rusty or cloudy hot water
  • Rumbling or popping
  • Damp floor around the tank

Good to Know

Yes. Call, enter your ZIP code, and you'll be connected with a local contractor who serves your area.

My North Natomas home is from the early 2000s. Is the heater due?

If it's the original tank, it's likely past its typical service life. Watch for rust at the base, rusty water or rumbling, and call before it leaks.

Should I replace before it fails?

If the tank is old and showing warning signs, replacing on your schedule usually means less damage and less stress than waiting for a leak.
