Professional Water Heater Installation Services
Our water heater installer can help you choose between a tank and tankless model. Tank water heaters are the traditional choice. Tankless water heaters are a more modern option. They cost more upfront but can provide a lower total cost and a virtually endless hot water supply.
Another consideration is how you’ll power your water heater. Both electric and gas water heaters are a popular option in Florida. Electric water heaters are cheaper initially and don’t produce toxic gases as a byproduct. Gas water heaters are cheaper over the life of the equipment. They require ventilation, and annual maintenance is crucial. Natural gas is the best option for properties with access, while liquid propane is the top alternative.
Water heater sizing is integral to minimizing your long-term costs. For tank water heaters, you need to choose the number of gallons the tank can hold. The average tank size is about 60 gallons. There are smaller tanks for people who live alone. We also offer much larger tanks for big households. Our water heater installer will account for your household size, number of bathrooms, major appliances, and so forth.
Sizing a tankless water heater requires determining your household’s peak hot water demand. The flow rate of the water heater must meet or exceed that demand. Otherwise, you’ll experience low water pressure and other issues. An advantage of a tankless water heater is that you can get limitless hot water, but it may not work well if many people are trying to use hot water at once. We’ll help you understand the pros and cons.
Once you know the water heater type and size, you can explore the uniform energy factor (UEF). The industry uses UEF to measure water heater efficiency. The higher the value, the cheaper a water heater will be to run. The most efficient water heaters have ENERGY STAR certification, which may make you eligible for rebates and other incentives.
High-efficiency models are an option for your water heater installation. Among electric tank water heaters, there are hybrid heat pump models. For gas water heaters, you have the option of a condensing model. These systems limit heat losses through the flue with a second heat exchanger. Some models also have a modulating gas valve.
There are many great reasons to upgrade your water heater.

Lower water heating costs
