You flip the faucet and hot water flows. Your morning shower doesn’t turn into an ice bath halfway through. Your dishwasher actually cleans dishes instead of just rinsing them with lukewarm water.
That’s what happens when your water heater installation is done right the first time. No more checking the pilot light every few days or wondering if today’s the day your old tank finally gives up completely.
With a properly installed system, you stop thinking about hot water because it just works. Every time.
We’ve been handling water heater installations throughout Sacramento County since day one. We’re the family-owned company that shows up when we say we will and charges what we quote.
East Sacramento homes deal with hard water that builds up sediment faster than other areas. We know this. We plan for it. And we install systems that handle it without breaking down every few years.
Our 5-star reputation comes from doing the work right and treating people fairly. No upselling. No hidden fees. Just professional installation that keeps your hot water flowing.
First, we assess your current setup and hot water needs. Different homes use hot water differently, and East Sacramento’s hard water affects some systems more than others.
Next, we explain your options without pushing the most expensive choice. Tank or tankless. Gas or electric. We’ll tell you what works best for your situation and budget.
On installation day, we handle everything. Remove the old unit, install the new system, test all connections, and make sure everything meets local codes. You’ll know exactly what we’re doing and why we’re doing it.
Before we leave, we walk you through your new system and answer any questions. No surprises, no callbacks, no wondering if it was installed correctly.

Every water heater installation we do includes removal of your old unit, professional installation of the new system, and testing to ensure everything works properly. We handle all permits and make sure the work meets Sacramento County codes.
East Sacramento’s hard water means your new system needs proper setup from day one. We install with sediment buildup in mind, positioning components for easier maintenance and longer life.
You’ll also get a detailed walkthrough of your new system, including maintenance tips specific to our area’s water conditions. We explain how to spot potential issues early and when to call for service.
For qualified systems, we help you access local rebates that can save up to $800 on energy-efficient models. SMUD and PG&E offer incentives for heat pump and hybrid units that we’ll help you navigate.
Most standard water heater installations take 2-4 hours from start to finish. This includes removing your old unit, installing the new system, and testing all connections.
If we’re replacing a similar unit in the same location, it’s usually on the shorter end. If we need to upgrade gas lines, electrical connections, or move the location, it takes longer.
We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during our initial assessment so you can plan your day accordingly.
Size depends on your household’s hot water usage, not just the number of people. A family of four with teenagers who take long showers needs more capacity than empty nesters.
We calculate peak demand by looking at your shower, dishwasher, and laundry usage patterns. Most East Sacramento homes do well with 40-50 gallon tanks, but some need larger units or benefit from tankless systems.
During our assessment, we’ll measure your actual usage and recommend the right size to meet your needs without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.
Yes, SMUD and PG&E offer rebates up to $800 for qualifying energy-efficient water heaters. Heat pump and hybrid models typically qualify for the largest rebates.
These rebates change periodically, so we stay current on what’s available when you’re ready to install. We handle the paperwork and make sure you get every rebate you qualify for.
Some high-efficiency models can also qualify for federal tax credits on top of local utility rebates, which we’ll help you understand during your consultation.
East Sacramento’s hard water requires annual flushing to remove sediment buildup. This prevents efficiency loss and extends your system’s life significantly.
We recommend professional maintenance every 12 months, which includes flushing the tank, checking the anode rod, and inspecting all connections. This typically takes about an hour.
Between professional services, check your system monthly for leaks, unusual noises, or changes in water temperature. Catching issues early prevents expensive emergency repairs.
Tank water heaters store hot water and keep it ready 24/7, which works well for families with predictable usage patterns. They have lower upfront costs and are easier to maintain.
Tankless units heat water on demand, which saves energy but requires adequate gas lines or electrical capacity. They work best for smaller households or homes with space constraints.
In East Sacramento’s hard water, both types need regular maintenance, but tanks are generally more forgiving of mineral buildup and easier to service.
Yes, we provide emergency water heater installation when your system fails completely. We understand that losing hot water disrupts your entire household routine.
Our emergency service includes assessment, same-day installation when possible, and temporary solutions if we need to order specific parts. We keep common units in stock for faster service.
Emergency installations cost the same as scheduled work – no premium pricing just because you need help quickly. We believe fair pricing applies whether it’s planned or an emergency.
