Does a 9 year electric water heater last longer then a 6 yr?
Does a 9 year electric water heater last longer then a 6 yr? Is it worth the extra $? And does the same apply to a 12 yr?

If I recall correctly 9 and 12 years have essentially same plumbing Copper thickness. The difference is warranty on some models. Also water heater life is controlled by maintenance, usage, thermocouple, piezo quality. There is maintenance involved although 95% people do not bother with it.
