More information on water heater installation

A reputable company will install a water heater in a timely fashion and honor product warranties.

Do you need a replacement or a repair?

Water heaters, on average, last between eight to 12 years. If you’re having problems with a water heater that isn’t that old yet, have a licensed plumber out to do some troubleshooting. Qualified water heater technicians can check if thermostats, pressure relief valves, and water supply pipes are working properly. They can also check for sediment build-up, heating element issues, and leaky fittings. In some cases, a simple repair can extend the life of your current water heater.

Before hiring a water heater installation expert

Look up BBB Accredited water heater experts and ask friends and family for their recommendations as well. Once you have a few candidates lined up, use these questions to vet multiple companies. Be sure to find one that offers quality products, expert installation, and great customer service.

Ask these questions before you hire someone to service your water heater:

  • What brands and types of water heaters does the company install?
  • How long will the installation take?
  • Will the company dispose of the old water heater for you, and is there an additional cost for that service?
  • How much will the new water heater cost?
  • What is the estimated monthly utility bill for the water heater you are considering?
  • What kind of energy-efficient options are available? 
  • Will a licensed plumber install your new water heater?
  • Does the company offer periodic maintenance appointments to keep the heater in optimal condition?
  • Does the company offer warranties with their water heaters? How long do they last, and what do they include?

Types of water heaters

If you are opting to replace your water heater, get to know several different types of water heaters before you start shopping. Think about what kind best fits your needs, and when in doubt, consult a qualified technician. Here are the most common options: 

  • Traditional tank water heaters, sometimes called storage water heaters, keep a reservoir of hot water ready. For a home, the average hot water tank holds between 20 and 50 gallons of water.
  • Tankless water heaters do not have a tank. They heat water directly, on demand.
  • Solar water heaters work well if you live in a sunny area. They use solar energy to make hot water.
  • Indirect and tankless coil water heaters take advantage of your home’s space heating system to heat water.
  • Heat pump water heaters move heat where needed instead of generating heat for hot water.

The upfront and monthly costs, energy efficiency levels, fuel types, and sizes of each kind of water heater can vary. Use these factors to determine what kind of water heater is the best choice for your home or business.
