Repair vs. Replace


If your unit is under 6 years old, repair might be the answer. We diagnose issues like failed thermocouples, burnt-out heating elements, or faulty dip tubes. We give you an honest cost-benefit analysis so you can make the right choice for your budget.





Frequently Asked Questions


  • How much does it cost to install a tankless heater? The initial cost is higher than a tank due to the unit price and installation complexity, but the long-term energy savings and 20-year lifespan often offer a superior ROI.
  • Why is my hot water rusty? This usually indicates the glass lining of your steel tank has cracked and the metal is rusting. This cannot be repaired; the tank must be replaced immediately before it bursts.
  • Do you install electric water heaters? Yes. We install electric tanks and the new hybrid heat pump water heaters, which are incredibly efficient for all-electric homes.
  • How long does a replacement take? A standard tank swap takes 2-4 hours. A tankless conversion typically takes a full day due to the gas and vent modifications.
  • What is an anode rod? It is a "sacrificial" metal rod inside the tank that attracts rust so the tank itself doesn't corrode. Replacing it every 3-5 years can double your tank's life.
