No matter what type of water heater you have installed in your home, we can repair or replace it. Our professional plumbers have worked with tankless, conventional and hybrid water heaters, so no matter what issues you’re experiencing, we have seen it and know how to fix it.

If we determine that your water heater is too far gone for repair, we might recommend replacement. We generally recommend the most cost effective solution, but if you have a particularly old water heater that constantly needs to be repaired and is on its last leg, you should consider replacing it with a newer one.

Tankless water heater: Tankless water heaters are a very popular option because they are the most energy efficient. They only heat water when you need it to. Also, tankless water heaters are more compact and takes up less space. However, they usually need big gas lines, and higher initial installation costs on ventilation and electrical changes. But in the long run, tankless water heaters can last for up to 20 years and lower your heating bill.

Conventional water heater: Conventional water heaters have a tank of stored water and come in different size capacities. They require energy (gas or electricity) to keep the water at the right temperature until you need hot water. Conventional water heaters can last up to 11 years. The newer conventional water heaters are also more efficient than older ones and can lower your heating bill as well.

Hybrid water heater: Hybrid water heaters are similar to conventional models. They have a tank to store water, as well as a heat pump to get heat from the air to heat up the water. They are more energy efficient because they use your existing electrical and water connections. This can help you reduce both your water and heating bills by as much as 60%.
