FAQ

Common water heater installation questions.

Yes. City permit filing is part of the all-inclusive tank installation price, not a line item added afterwards.
Tankless costs more up front and gives you endless hot water and a longer service life. Whether that pays back depends on how much hot water the household actually uses and whether the gas line can carry the load, which is why gas line verification is part of the install rather than an assumption.
No. A leak from the tank body means the inner lining has corroded through. Fittings, valves and connections can be repaired. The tank itself cannot.
