Water Heater Installation

Your water heater works hard all day to provide hot, clean water for you and your family. However, even the best water heater will wear down over time. You are more likely to experience water heater issues if your unit is more than 10 years old.


A new water heater installation has several advantages.

  • Energy Efficiency

    The main reason for water heater replacement is efficiency. The older your heater gets, the more energy it takes to work. The result is that older machines are less effective, eat up more power, and incur a higher utility cost.


    New water heaters are more efficient and can significantly reduce your energy bills. New water heaters also use the latest efficient technology to minimize energy costs.

  • Consistent Heating

    One of the most common signs of a failing water heater is a lack of hot water. A new machine will be better able to produce and recover water. Modern designs, such as tankless water heaters, virtually never run out of hot water.

  • Quieter Operation

    Many older water heaters produce a lot of noise, especially if they have wear and tear. New water heaters make less noise due to better engineering and more efficient operation. Modern water heaters can produce as little as 40 dB — about as loud as a quiet library whisper.

  • Water Heater Installation Cost

    Size. Water heater size depends on the size of your family. A good rule of thumb is to have at least 30-40 gallons for one to three people and 50-60 gallons for four to five. 


    Water usage. If you and your family frequently use water, you need a unit that can provide enough hot water without running out. Modern brands express water heater capacity in temperature increase per gallons of water per minute. For example, a typical water heater has a 1.5 gallon per minute capacity at 55 degrees Fahrenheit.


    Appliances. Appliances such as dishwashers, washing machines, and hot tubs have their own heating requirements. Make sure your tank is powerful enough to heat your various appliances.


    The team at Formica Plumbing and Sewer has experience installing the latest water heaters brands and technologies. We can help you with the replacement process, from choosing a model to final inspections.

Water Heater Repair vs. Replacement

Many homeowners might be thinking: Why get a water heater replacement when I can just repair my old unit?


There are a couple of reasons to prefer replacement over repair. First, old water heaters tend to break down more often. As such, the cost of repairing an old water heater over time may be more than the price of installing a new heater.

Second, water heater technology has advanced significantly in recent years, with hyper-efficient and tankless models. New water heaters tend to be more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective. Water heater maintenance costs for new models tend to be less too.


Lastly, modern water heaters have unique tech features. Novel consumer features, such as programmable thermostats and Wi-Fi capabilities to track consumption patterns, let people be more efficient with their water usage habits.

At the end of the day, repairing or replacing your water heater depends on your needs and budget. If repairs cost more than 50% of the cost of installing a new heater, we recommend replacement over repairs. If your unit is only a few years old, water heater repair may be the better option.
