The reason is the limescale that accumulates inside the tank. The electric heating element that heats the water becomes covered with an increasingly thick layer that acts as an insulator. The thermostat detects that it is not reaching the target temperature and sends more current. The bill goes up, the appliance heats less effectively, and eventually the element burns out. Sometimes the tank bursts from the inside, leading to a catastrophic leak that floods the laundry room. The reality is that no one replaces it. Technical services usually don't warn about it, and owners are unaware of its existence. When we perform a first review on a water heater older than five years, the anode is almost always completely consumed. Almost no one knows it exists, but it's the part that adds the most lifespan to the water heater. It's a magnesium rod inside the tank that attracts corrosion towards itself instead of letting it attack the tank walls. It wears down over time. When it's completely depleted, corrosion starts to eat away at the tank, and from then on, every year counts. We replace it every four or five years in hard water areas. It's reasonably priced and easily extends the appliance's life by ten more years.

The water on the Costa Blanca has an average hardness of 30-40 French degrees. This means that a standard electric water heater of any brand, installed without any special care, lasts between five and eight years before starting to cause serious problems.
