Commonly Asked Questions

What are the signs that indicate I need a new water heater?

Some common signs that indicate you need a new water heater include rusty water, strange noises coming from the unit, a lack of hot water, and visible leaks around the water heater.

How long does it take to install a new water heater?

The time it takes to install a new water heater can vary depending on the type of water heater, the complexity of the installation, and any additional modifications needed. A professional installer can provide a more accurate estimate based on your specific situation.

What are the benefits of professional water heater installation?

Professional water heater installation ensures that the unit is properly sized, installed, and connected to meet your hot water needs. It also helps prevent common installation mistakes that can lead to inefficiency, safety hazards, and premature failure.

Do I need a permit for water heater installation in Ira Township, MI?

In Ira Township, MI, a permit is typically required for water heater installation. It's important to check with the local building department or a licensed plumber to ensure compliance with local regulations and codes.

Can I install a water heater myself?

While it's possible to install a water heater as a DIY project, it's generally recommended to hire a professional for safety, compliance, and warranty reasons. Professional installers have the expertise and tools to ensure a proper and safe installation.

Gas vs. Electric Heaters

There are many water heaters to choose from when considering gas, electric, tank, and tankless varieties. We’re here to help you decide what kind of hot water heater will work best for your home. 

Gas water heaters have these specifications:

  • Faster hot water
  • Low operating cost
  • Operation during power outages
  • High installation cost if you don’t already have a gas line
  • Open flame

Gas water heaters typically heat water faster with a lower operating cost and stay on during power outages. However, if your home doesn’t already have a gas line, installing a line in your home can be a significant investment. These systems also have an open flame that may need to be relit occasionally, so it’s not as safe as electric systems that have these specifications:

  • Low initial cost
  • Safer
  • Wide variety of sizes
  • Higher operating costs

Electric water heaters range from tank versions to point-of-use applications if you need water for your whole home or only one specific area. This is also a safer option because there is no open flame that may need to be relit. Since all homes already have electrical, installing is more affordable, though the monthly cost is slightly higher than gas heaters. No matter what your home needs, we’re here for you with expert water heater services in Macomb.

Tankless Water Heater FAQ

We understand that tankless heaters are a relatively new option for many homes that are used to tank water heaters that are inefficient and take up significant space. 

Here are answers to a few commonly asked questions about tankless water heaters:

How can it heat water instantly?

Unlike tank heaters that have to reheat 30-50 gallons of water every time, on-demand heaters only heat the water you need as it moves through your heater. This allows a more efficient system that can provide hot water in less than 25 seconds.

Can a tankless heater save me money?

Yes! Tankless water heaters can save you up to $100 a year because they consume less energy and reduce your environmental impact. They are more efficient than tank versions and free up space that you could use for storage or other needs.

Do tankless heaters still have hard water?

Typical tank heaters have significant mineral buildup that creates hard water that reduces the lifespan of your appliances. However, because on-demand heaters don’t store water, there is no opportunity for minerals to settle and build up.

What is a point-of-use tankless water heater?

Typically, a point-of-use heater is used in spaces detached from your home, like a garage or additional dwelling unit. This eliminates the long pipe that would otherwise be used to run hot water to a secondary space.
