Appliance Lifespan Tracker
Log every major appliance once and see what's healthy, what's aging, and what's overdue for replacement — so you can budget ahead instead of scrambling when something dies.
FAQ
- How long do home appliances last?
- Industry averages: refrigerators ~13 years, dishwashers ~9, washing machines ~10, dryers ~13, ranges/ovens ~15, microwaves ~9, water heaters ~10, furnaces ~18, and A/C condensers ~15. These are planning averages — maintenance, water hardness, and usage shift them.
- What do the health labels mean?
- Healthy is under 75% of expected life. Aging is 75–99% — start budgeting for a replacement. Replace soon means the appliance has reached or passed its expected service life, so a failure is increasingly likely.
- Is my data saved anywhere?
- Only in your browser's local storage. There's no account and nothing leaves your device. Clearing your browser data removes the list. Use Print / PDF to keep a copy.
- Should I replace an appliance the moment it's 'overdue'?
- Not necessarily. A well-maintained unit can run well past its average. Treat 'replace soon' as a prompt to budget and watch for warning signs (rising energy bills, repeated repairs, performance drop), and to avoid an emergency replacement at full price.
