Disposing of an old Noritz water heater should be done responsibly to ensure environmental safety. First, disconnect the unit and drain any remaining water. Then, contact your local waste disposal facility to inquire about their policies on water heater disposal. Some facilities may offer recycling options for certain parts. If recycling is not an option, consider donating the unit to a local charity or selling it for scrap metal. Always remember to follow local regulations when disposing of large appliances.
