Water Heater Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Water Heater

First, we assess your current situation. Whether it’s an emergency water heater service call or a planned replacement, we’ll examine your existing unit, check your home’s electrical or gas connections, and determine what you actually need.

Next, we explain your options clearly. Tankless water heater installation might save you space and energy costs, while a traditional tank system could be more budget-friendly upfront. We’ll walk through the pros and cons based on your specific situation, not what we want to sell you.

Finally, we complete the installation with all necessary permits and code compliance. Your new water heater will be properly connected, tested, and ready to provide reliable hot water for years to come. We clean up our work area and make sure you understand how to operate your new system.

Most residential water heater installations take 2-4 hours, depending on whether you’re replacing an existing unit or installing in a new location. If we’re switching from electric to gas or vice versa, it might take longer because of additional electrical or gas line work. Commercial water heater installations can take a full day or more, especially for larger systems. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront so you can plan accordingly.
If your water heater is over 8-10 years old and needs major repairs, replacement usually makes more sense financially. Newer units are significantly more energy-efficient, which means lower utility bills that help offset the installation cost. However, if your unit is relatively new and the repair is minor, fixing it might be the smarter choice. We’ll assess your specific situation and give you honest advice about which option saves you more money in the long run.
Yes, we provide emergency water heater service throughout Streamwood and surrounding areas. Water heater emergencies don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. If you’re dealing with a complete failure, gas leak, or water damage from a failed unit, call us immediately. We’ll prioritize your call and get someone out to assess the situation and provide temporary or permanent solutions as quickly as possible.
Tankless water heaters heat water on demand, which means you never run out of hot water and use less energy overall. They take up much less space and can last 15-20 years with proper maintenance. Traditional tank water heaters cost less upfront and are simpler to install, but they constantly heat and reheat stored water, which uses more energy. The best choice depends on your household’s hot water usage, available space, and budget for both upfront costs and long-term energy savings.
Water heater installation costs vary based on the type of unit, complexity of installation, and any additional work needed like electrical or gas line modifications. Basic tank water heater replacement typically runs less than premium tankless systems, but tankless units often pay for themselves through energy savings over time. We provide upfront pricing after assessing your specific situation, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we start any work.
Yes, most water heater installations in Streamwood require permits to ensure the work meets local building codes and safety standards. This is especially important for gas water heaters, which must be properly vented and connected to prevent carbon monoxide issues. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service, so you don’t have to navigate the paperwork yourself. Proper permitting also protects your home insurance coverage and ensures safe operation.
