Common Water Heater Installation Considerations

A water heater that lasts comes down to sizing and a clean hookup. These three are what our plumbers get right on every install:

Too small and you run out of hot water; too large and you waste energy. We size the unit to your household’s real demand so it fits the way you actually live. Correct sizing keeps both comfort and bills in check. In hard-water Des Moines, a slightly larger or higher-recovery unit can offset the efficiency that sediment steals over time. We remove and dispose of the old unit cleanly so the only thing you notice is the hot water returning.

Gas, electrical, water, and venting all must be connected to code. We handle each correctly and test the safety valves so the unit runs safely. Proper venting in particular is essential on gas units. We also install a drip pan and shutoff where code calls for them so the install is safe and serviceable. We test every connection and the safety valve before we consider the job done.

Des Moines hard water shortens a unit’s life through sediment. We set you up with a maintenance plan, and often a softener, so the new unit lasts its full life. Planning for it protects your investment from day one. A properly sized, well-installed unit simply works, quietly delivering hot water for years.
