Water Heater Replacement Services
- Rusty water: This is a sign that your tank is corroded and may be breaking down.
- Leaks: Water heaters are designed to be airtight, so any leaking is a sign that something has gone wrong.
- Noises: Popping, knocking, or cracking sounds are common indicators that sediment has built up and is trapping water underneath it.
- Discolored water: If you notice discoloration when the water is hot, the inside of your water heater may be corroded.
- Fluctuating water temperatures: If your water comes out as hot as you need it yet other times it comes out lukewarm or even cold, something is wrong with your heater.

Water Heater Replacement F.A.Q.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does it Take to Replace a Water Heater?
The time it takes to replace a water heater can vary depending on the type of unit and the complexity of the installation. On average, replacing a water heater takes about 4 to 6 hours. For traditional tank water heaters, the process involves draining the old unit, disconnecting plumbing and electrical or gas lines, and installing the new unit. Tankless water heater installations may take a bit longer due to additional modifications required for venting and plumbing.
If the installation site needs additional upgrades or modifications, the process could take longer. However, a skilled technician can often complete the replacement in a single day.
Can I Replace My Water Heater Myself, or Should I Hire a Professional?
While it’s technically possible to replace a water heater yourself, it’s highly recommended to hire a professional plumber or HVAC technician for the job. Water heater replacement involves complex tasks such as disconnecting plumbing and electrical or gas lines, ensuring proper venting, and handling potentially dangerous components like gas lines and electrical wiring.
A licensed professional has the expertise to safely and efficiently install the unit while complying with local building codes and regulations. Hiring a professional also ensures that the warranty on your new water heater is valid and the installation is done correctly.
Will Replacing My Water Heater Imrpove Energy Efficiency?
Yes, replacing an old water heater with a more modern, energy-efficient model can significantly reduce your energy consumption and lower your utility bills.
Traditional tank water heaters lose heat over time, even when not in use, due to standby heat loss. Newer models, especially tankless or hybrid water heaters, use advanced technology to provide on-demand hot water and minimize energy waste. Energy-efficient models often come with improved insulation, better thermostats, and more efficient heating elements.
Replacing your water heater with a high-efficiency unit can save you money over the long term and reduce your household’s carbon footprint.
Is it Worth Upgrading to a Tankless Water Heater?
Upgrading to a tankless water heater can be a great option, depending on your needs. Tankless water heaters heat water on demand, which means they never run out of hot water, and they are typically more energy-efficient than traditional tank models. Since they don’t store water, tankless units eliminate standby heat loss, which can lower energy costs.
However, tankless water heaters tend to have a higher upfront cost and may require additional installation work, such as upgraded gas lines or electrical systems. If your household uses a lot of hot water simultaneously or if you have space constraints, a tankless system might be worth the investment.
