I’m having hard time figuring why water heater on city water (must be the swamp water down here?) won’t last more than 10 years. The one in my current village home was 18 years old (original heater installed). I replaced it for insurance purposes. I wonder when my ceiling fans or light switches have to be replaced for insurance? Normal water heater prices now run around 500 to 700 bucks.

If your light switch fails, you walk around in the dark.
If your hot water heater fails, you have a flood with water damage.
If the water heater failure is limited to gas/electric breaking down, WAIT, the risk is tank failure.
