The Process of Replacing Your Water Heater
When it’s time to replace your water heater, you can count on Bates Plumbing to handle every detail from start to finish. Here’s how the process works:
- Assessment and Recommendations
Our expert technicians will inspect your current water heater to determine if replacement is the best solution. We’ll discuss your hot water needs and recommend the ideal model for your home, including options for traditional tanks, tankless systems, or hybrid models. - Removal of the Old Water Heater
We’ll safely disconnect the gas, water, and electrical lines, drain the old water heater, and remove it from your property. We also include disposal of the old unit, saving you the hassle of handling bulky equipment. - Preparing for Installation
Before installing the new unit, we’ll inspect and, if necessary, make minor adjustments to gas or water lines to ensure proper alignment and safe operation. This step may also include updating connections to meet current building codes. - Professional Installation
Your new water heater will be carefully installed, ensuring all connections are secure and compliant with safety standards. For gas water heaters, we’ll verify that the venting system is functioning properly to prevent carbon monoxide buildup. - System Testing
Once the installation is complete, we’ll test the new water heater to ensure it operates efficiently and delivers consistent hot water. - Clean-Up and Instructions
We’ll clean the workspace, leaving your home just as we found it. Our team will also provide a walkthrough of your new water heater’s features and maintenance tips to maximize its lifespan.
