We install conventional tank water heaters and tankless (on-demand) systems in both gas and electric configurations, and we handle heat pump water heaters as well. Beyond setting the unit, a proper installation includes the correct connections, venting, expansion tank where required, and disposal of your old unit. We make sure everything meets code, because a water heater that is not installed correctly can be both a safety hazard and a failed inspection.
Most installations follow a unit that is leaking, no longer producing enough hot water, running out quickly, making popping or rumbling sounds from sediment buildup, or simply old enough that failure is a question of when, not if. Replacing it before it fails outright spares you the cleanup and inconvenience of a tank that lets go on its own. If your household has grown or your hot water demand has changed, installation is also the right time to resize or switch to tankless.
We start by talking through your needs, your space, and your budget, then recommend the right type and size of unit. You get a written estimate before any work begins. On installation day, we remove the old unit, set and connect the new one, handle venting and any required expansion tank, and confirm everything is working and leak-free before we leave. We haul away the old water heater and clean up the work area.
Tankless units heat water on demand, save space, and tend to last longer, though they cost more upfront. Tank units have a lower initial cost and are simpler to service. The right choice depends on your household’s hot water use, your budget, and your existing setup. We will walk you through the tradeoffs.
It depends on the number of people in the home and your peak hot water demand. An undersized unit runs out of hot water; an oversized one wastes energy. We size the unit to your actual usage rather than just matching whatever was there before.
A straightforward tank replacement is often done in a few hours. Switching types, for example going from tank to tankless, can take longer because it may involve venting and gas or electrical changes. We will give you a realistic timeframe with your estimate.
