Professional water heater installation and repair when you need it most in Elk Grove Village.
Your morning routine shouldn’t depend on whether your water heater decides to cooperate. When you have consistent hot water, everything else just works – showers that actually clean, dishes that come out spotless, and laundry that gets properly sanitized.
A properly installed water heater gives you more than just hot water. You get predictable utility bills instead of watching costs creep up month after month. You get the right amount of hot water for your household without running out halfway through a shower or waiting forever for the tank to reheat.
Most importantly, you get peace of mind. No more wondering if today’s the day your water heater finally gives up. No more emergency calls to plumbers at the worst possible times.
FloTek Plumbing has been handling water heater installations and repairs throughout Elk Grove Village for years. We’re licensed, insured, and we understand how Illinois weather affects your plumbing systems.
We’ve seen every type of water heater failure you can imagine. Tank corrosion, heating element burnouts, gas valve problems, thermostat malfunctions – we fix them all. When repair isn’t worth it, we’ll tell you straight up and explain your replacement options.
Our technicians live and work in the area. We understand local building codes, permit requirements, and the specific challenges that come with Elk Grove Village’s housing stock and utility infrastructure.
We start with an assessment of your current situation and your household’s hot water needs. This includes checking your existing plumbing connections, electrical or gas supply, venting requirements, and available space. We’ll also discuss whether your current water heater size actually matches what you need.
Next comes the installation itself. We handle all permits, remove your old unit safely, and install the new water heater according to manufacturer specifications and local codes. This includes proper venting for gas units, electrical connections for electric models, and all necessary safety features.
After installation, we test everything thoroughly. Water temperature, pressure relief valve operation, proper venting, and overall system function. We’ll walk you through basic maintenance and answer any questions about your new water heater’s operation before we consider the job complete.

We install and repair both traditional tank water heaters and tankless systems. Tank units work well for most Elk Grove Village homes and offer reliable, affordable hot water storage. Tankless water heaters save space and provide endless hot water but require proper sizing and adequate gas or electrical supply.
For fuel types, we handle both gas and electric water heater installation. Gas units typically cost less to operate but require proper venting and gas line capacity. Electric water heaters are easier to install in some situations but may have higher operating costs depending on your utility rates.
Commercial properties get the same thorough approach. We size systems properly for your business needs, whether that’s a small office building or a restaurant with high hot water demand. Commercial installations often require different permitting and compliance considerations, which we handle as part of the service.
