Complete Water Heater Replacement Services

Everything Included, Nothing Extra to Buy

Your water heater installation includes professional removal of the old unit, proper installation of the new system, and all necessary connections. We pull permits and schedule inspections as required by Pacifica building codes.

Our service covers both traditional tank water heaters and tankless models, with options for gas, electric, or hybrid systems. Each installation includes new supply lines, proper venting, earthquake strapping where required, and a thorough system test.

Pacifica’s coastal environment demands extra attention to corrosion resistance and proper ventilation. We account for these local factors, ensuring your new water heater performs reliably for years despite salt air and marine conditions that can affect equipment lifespan.

Most standard water heater installations take 3-4 hours from start to finish. This includes removing your old unit, installing the new water heater, making all connections, and testing the system. Tankless installations or jobs requiring electrical upgrades may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe after evaluating your specific situation and any local permit requirements.
Yes, Pacifica requires permits for most water heater installations, especially when replacing gas units or upgrading electrical systems. The good news is that we handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections for you. This ensures your installation meets local codes and protects your home’s value. DIY installations without proper permits can create problems when selling your home later.
Water heater sizing depends on your household size and hot water usage patterns. A typical family of four needs a 40-50 gallon tank water heater or a tankless unit rated for 7-8 gallons per minute. However, factors like multiple bathrooms, large soaking tubs, or high-efficiency appliances affect sizing. We’ll assess your actual usage patterns and recommend the right capacity to avoid running out of hot water.
Tank water heaters cost less upfront and work well for most families, while tankless units save space and provide endless hot water but require higher initial investment. Tankless systems work especially well in Pacifica’s mild climate and can last longer than traditional tanks. Your choice depends on available space, budget, and hot water usage patterns. We can evaluate your specific situation and recommend the best option.
Water heater installation costs vary based on the unit type, installation complexity, and any necessary upgrades to gas lines or electrical systems. Standard tank replacements typically cost less than tankless installations or jobs requiring significant modifications. The best approach is getting an upfront estimate that includes equipment, labor, permits, and any additional work needed. This eliminates surprises and helps you budget accurately.
Our professional installations include both manufacturer warranties on the equipment and labor warranties on the installation work. Equipment warranties typically range from 6-12 years depending on the model, while we warranty our installation labor for at least one year. This dual protection means you’re covered if problems arise with either the water heater itself or our installation work. We’ll always verify warranty terms with you before starting the job.
