Nothing lasts forever, and a water heater is one of those appliances that needs more frequent replacing than others. When your current heater isn’t running or does so inefficiently, replacing it is the only option.

You investigate, and find an expanding puddle of water seeping out from behind a wall or dripping out of your ceiling. That’s the nightmare that is frozen pipes. And there are steps that you can take to avoid them.
