Expert Installation for Your Home
Prioritizing Safety and Efficiency
Installing an electric water heater is a complex task that involves working with both plumbing and electrical connections. Attempting this without proper training and knowledge can lead to serious safety hazards, including electrical shock, water damage, or improper venting. Professional installers are trained to handle these systems safely and according to code.
Beyond safety, professional installation ensures your new water heater operates at peak efficiency. Correct pipe connections, proper electrical hookups, and accurate thermostat settings are crucial for optimal performance and energy savings. A professionally installed unit is less likely to experience issues down the line, providing dependable hot water when you need it.
Our Seamless Installation Process
Our process begins with an assessment of your current system and your specific needs. We evaluate your home’s size, hot water usage patterns, and the existing plumbing and electrical setup to determine the best approach. This initial step helps us recommend the most suitable electric water heater model if you haven’t already purchased one, or simply prepare for the installation of your chosen unit.
Once the assessment is complete and the new unit is on-site, our skilled technicians carefully remove the old water heater, following all necessary safety protocols. They then proceed with the installation of the new electric unit, connecting it securely to the water lines and electrical supply. The final steps involve filling the tank, checking for leaks, and thoroughly testing the unit to ensure it heats water efficiently and safely before we consider the job complete.
Understanding Sizing, Type, and Efficiency
Selecting the correct size electric water heater is vital for ensuring you have enough hot water for your household’s needs without unnecessary energy waste. Tank size is typically measured in gallons, and the appropriate capacity depends on the number of people in your home and your peak hot water usage. An undersized unit will run out of hot water quickly, while an oversized one wastes energy by heating more water than necessary.
Beyond size, consider the type of electric water heater. Standard tank models are common and store heated water, while tankless electric water heaters heat water on demand, potentially saving energy but often requiring a significant electrical service upgrade. Your existing setup and budget will influence the best choice for your home.
Energy efficiency is another critical factor. Look for models with a high Energy Factor (EF) or Uniform Energy Factor (UEF), as these indicate better energy performance. Investing in a more efficient unit can lead to lower electricity bills over the lifetime of the water heater, offsetting a potentially higher initial cost.

He even called the manufacturer on our behalf so our water heater would be covered by the warranty.
