Types of Water Heaters We Install
Hot Water Tank Installation Without the Headache
Water heater installation shouldn't be a hassle. Thanks to the many manufacturers we work with constantly innovating to make systems possible in new scenarios, we're absolutely certain we'll find a model fit for your specific situation. Whether you need a standard 40 gallon water heater installed in your basement, or a 75 gallon hot water tank installed into a garage, we're confident our Climate Control Experts can help you to build the exact system you're hoping for!
Power Vent Hot Water Tank
No chimney? No problem. As we continue to move towards high efficiency systems, it's more often that we find chimneys have been sealed or are on the other side of the basement, making venting for a standard natural draft hot water tank almost impossible. While power vent hot water tanks are generally more expensive than their standard tank water heater counter parts, most homeowners find it a small price to pay for hot water!
Natural Gas Hot Water Tank
The standard natural gas tank hot water tank is without question the most common way water is heated here in Michigan, and for good reason. With sizes ranging from 30 gallons, all the way up to 100 gallons and beyond, there's a size and model for every household built specifically for your hot water demand. While the most common sizes we see are definitely the 40 gallon and 50 gallon hot water tanks, one of the most common questions we receive is if it's worth upgrading from 40 gallons to 50 gallons. While the answer is rarely a simple yes or no, this depends heavily on your hot water usage!
Signs It May Be Worth Upsizing from 40 Gallons to a 50 Gallon Water Heater Include:
-
You Have a Household of 4 or More People
-
You Find Yourself Frequently Running Out of Hot Water
-
You Have Space in Your Utility Area for the Larger Tank
-
You Plan on Expanding Your Household or Moving in the Near Future
Electric Water Heaters
While electric hot water tanks are certainly not as common as their natural gas counterparts, these still make for a great option in scenarios where a gas line isn't available to you, or you'd need to install gas lines to the opposite side of your house. Electric water heaters tend to have the cheapest upfront cost of all water heaters, making them a great option when you're debating if it's worth remodeling your utility room, or keeping your costs lower and sticking with electric. With models the size of standard 40 and 50 gallon natural gas water heaters, and low-boys designed to be tucked away in smaller spaces, an electric water heater is the way to go if you need versatile installation for an out of the ordinary room design.
Cost of Hot Water Tank Installation
The Average Cost of Water Heater Installation
Due to the thousand different brands, makes, and models of hot water tanks, along with the difference in installation needs from home to home in Metro Detroit, there's a relatively wide range of costs involved with installing your hot water tank. The cost of a standard natural gas 40 gallon water heater can be more thousand dollars cheaper than a 75 gallon power vent water heater!
The key contributors to the variation in prices include:
-
The Size & Heating Capacity of the Water Heater
While an undersized hot water tank will have you running out of hot water constantly, too large of a water heater will result in hundreds upon thousands of dollars of wasted hot water over time. A fifty gallon rating means that this tank will always store 50 gallons of hot water. There's nothing worse than spending money on something you don't want or need!
-
System Efficiency & Features
While your new hot water tank will likely be more efficient than the last, many newer models have options for added safety features to prevent flooding, extend the water heater's lifespan (especially when heating hard water), and improve the overall performance of your water heater!
-
Difficulty of the Installation
While the requirements for installing your water heater almost never change, the difficulty of installation, such as connecting plumbing, gas, or venting the system, vary drastically from home to home, especially here in Southeastern Michigan.
