Water Heater Installation & Service
Understanding the Problem
A water heater is one of the hardest-working appliances in your home — and one of the most commonly overlooked until something goes wrong. An aging or improperly installed unit can drive up energy bills, deliver inconsistent temperatures, fail prematurely, and in the worst cases cause serious water damage when it ruptures. Manufacturer warranties often become void when installation doesn't meet code or when required annual service is skipped.
Whether you're replacing a unit that's nearing the end of its life, upgrading to a higher-efficiency tankless system, or building new, the installation needs to be done right the first time — sized correctly, vented properly, and backed by ongoing service.
Our Solution
Water Science handles the full scope of water heater installation and service — tankless, tanked, and conversions between the two. The process starts with an on-site assessment to determine the right configuration for your household: gas line capacity, venting requirements, space constraints, hot water demand, and long-term efficiency goals all factor into the recommendation.
From there, our team handles sizing, permitted installation, venting, and code compliance from the first consultation through final testing. Every install is completed by licensed professionals — no cutting corners, no questionable workmanship that voids your warranty the day the equipment is turned on.
Ongoing service is just as important as the install itself. Our annual maintenance program protects your warranty, sustains efficiency, and catches small issues before they become expensive failures. For tankless systems in particular, our yearly service program is built around the manufacturer's requirements to keep your 25-year warranty intact for its full term.
