Lifespan of Home Features & Materials

You can count on a well-constructed house to last a lifetime but some of the components that make up a house tend to have shorter lifespans. These components will need repair or replacement in order to endure the test of time. 

While the below averages can give you an idea of how long your home and its features will last, they do not account for things like weather, overuse, abuse or neglect - all of which can speed up deterioration. 

Here's what the average lifespan of a home's features looks like:

HVAC System

Central Air Conditioning 7-15 years

Furnace and gas fireplaces 15-25 years

Boiler and electric radiant heater 40 years

Ducting 60-100 years

Chimney cap (concrete) 100+ years

Plumbing System

Kitchen Sink (enameled steel) 5-10+ years

Water Heater (conventional) 6-12 years

Bathtub/shower (fiberglass) 20 years

Kitchen Sink (acrylic) 50 years

Waste pipes (ABS or PVC) 50-80 years

Bathtub (cast iron) and toilet 100 years

Waste pipes (concrete) 100+years. 

Appliances and Fixtures

Air conditioning (window) 5-7 years

Washing machine 5-15 years

Trash compactor 6 years

Dishwasher and microwave 9 years

Refrigerator 9-13 years

Dryer 13 years

Freezer 10-20 years

Whole-house vacuum system 20 years 

Exterior Features

Roof 20-40 years $24,700 (asphalt) - $40,318 (metal) to replace

Vinyl siding 60 years $14,359 to replace

Windows 20-40 years $17,641 (vinyl) - $21,495 (wood) to replace 

Many of the materials used to build a home will likely outlast the current owner. The most resilient, according to findings from the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI), include:

Natural stone, tile or wood countertops

All-wood floors

Masonry (example brick fireplace or pavers)

Copper-plated wiring

Fiberglass, steel or wood exterior doors
