As stated, much depends on the water. Few maintain them to maximize the life so 10 years is reasonable. If they are at about ten years I would keep an eye out for leaks. I haven't had one gush water out in one day but maybe it could happen. Perhaps a towel wrapped around the base on the floor might be a good indicator of a leak. It could keep the leak from getting too far along and should make it easy to check somewhat regularly. Good luck!
