Everything's Included In Our Service

Your water heater replacement includes removal and disposal of your old unit, professional installation of the new water heater, and all necessary connections. We handle gas line connections, electrical work, and venting to make sure everything meets code.

We stock both traditional tank water heaters and tankless units, so we can usually complete your replacement the same day. If your home needs any upgrades to support a new unit, we’ll handle those too.

Every installation comes with our warranty on parts and labor. We also provide you with manufacturer warranty information and maintenance tips to keep your new water heater running efficiently for years to come.

How long does water heater replacement take in Pacifica?

Most water heater replacements take 2-4 hours from start to finish. This includes removing your old unit, installing the new water heater, and testing everything to make sure it works properly. If your home needs any upgrades to gas lines or electrical connections, it might take a bit longer. We always give you a realistic timeline upfront so you know what to expect. The goal is to get your hot water back on the same day we start the job.

What's the cost of water heater replacement in Pacifica?

Water heater replacement costs in Pacifica typically range from $1,200 to $3,500, depending on the type and size of unit you choose. Standard tank water heaters are less expensive upfront, while tankless units cost more but save money on energy bills over time. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying. The price includes the unit, installation, disposal of your old water heater, and our warranty on the work.

Should I choose a tankless or traditional water heater?

It depends on your hot water usage and budget. Traditional tank water heaters cost less upfront and work well for most Pacifica homes. Tankless water heaters cost more initially but provide endless hot water and lower energy bills over time. They also save space and last longer than tank units. If you have high hot water demand or want maximum efficiency, tankless is worth considering. We’ll help you choose based on your specific needs and usage patterns.

Do you handle permits for water heater installation in Pacifica?

Yes, we handle all permit requirements for water heater replacement in Pacifica. We know the local building codes and what the city requires for different types of installations. Most standard replacements don’t need permits if we’re installing the same type of unit in the same location. However, if you’re switching from tank to tankless or making significant changes to gas lines or venting, permits are required. We take care of the paperwork and make sure everything passes inspection.

What brands of water heaters do you install?

We install all major water heater brands including Rheem, Bradford White, AO Smith, and Navien. We recommend units based on your specific needs, budget, and the demands of Pacifica’s coastal environment. Some brands handle the salt air better than others, which matters for longevity here. We stock the most popular sizes and models, so we can usually complete your replacement the same day. All the brands we install come with manufacturer warranties, and we stand behind our installation work.

What if my water heater fails outside normal business hours?

We offer emergency water heater replacement service for Pacifica residents. If your water heater fails completely and you have no hot water, we can often get a replacement unit installed the same day, even on weekends. Emergency service does cost more than regular appointments, but sometimes you can’t wait until Monday morning for hot water. We keep common sizes in stock specifically for emergency calls. Give us a call and we’ll let you know if we can get out there the same day.
