Water Heater Repair, Replacement & Installation

What’s the one appliance you can’t live without? Takeout can compensate for the fridge. You can always wash dishes by hand.

But try a day or two without your water heater. Frigid showers. Freezing water from the tap.

Most water heaters last between 6 and 13 years. Tankless heaters are more durable — up to 20 years of service. Has your trusty water heater been around for a while? Has it ever been serviced? It may expire when you least expect it.

Cold water bathing is okay for camping but not for your home. Yet Southern California water heaters lead a brutal existence, thanks to some of the hardest water in the USA.

Whether you realize it or not, your water heater needs help. We’re here to help it.

Hard Water & Water Heaters: What Happens Inside

Hard water leaves a trail of mineral buildup and residue. Soapy residue on shower walls and drinking glasses. Calcium buildup in washing machines and dishwashers.

Inside your water heater, buildup accumulates, reducing efficiency and raising operational costs.

Conscientious homeowners flush and descale their water heaters every year. More frequent flushing is better, but if you’ve never flushed your water heater at all, you’ve passed the point of a DIY repair. It’s time to call us.

We’ll descale the tank, clean or replace the anodes, and check for signs of:

- Corrosion
- Leaks
- Bacterial infestation

If your water heater is nearing retirement age, we can discuss replacement options that meet your hot water needs — and budget.

Types of Hot Water Heaters We Repair & Install

Gone are the days of the old dial water heater that came in two configurations: gas and electric.

Today, you have more options than you may realize, including highly efficient tankless water heaters, hot water recirculation systems, and water heat pumps.

Conventional Water Heaters

Conventional water heaters are the most common type of water heater installed in homes. They come with an insulated tank for hot water, ready for use whenever you need it, and are sold in various sizes, ranging from 20-80 gallons, depending on your household’s needs.

Conventional water heaters are easy to service and maintain — a good thing because they require more maintenance than other water heater types. They should be flushed at least once a year to remove sediment and scale build-up from tank walls.

Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless heaters rely on powerful heating coils to heat water on demand. They’re ideal for families that use a lot of hot water.

Compared to traditional tank-style water heaters, tankless models offer several advantages:

They’re up to 35% more energy efficient
They can last twice as long (up to 20 years.) They take up less space
They offer a virtually endless supply of hot water. Tankless units require specialized knowledge and expertise in terms of installation and maintenance.

Heat Pump Water Heaters

Also known as hybrid water heaters, heat pump water heaters are an energy-efficient option for large households. They use air or ground temperature to heat water, which makes them up to 60% more efficient than traditional tank models and 30-50% more efficient than tankless units.

Heat pumps are typically installed outdoors, making them ideal for homes with limited indoor space. They can also be installed indoors if desired. Besides the obvious benefits of increased efficiency, heat pump water heaters have an extended lifespan of up to 20 years.
