FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers
How long do water heaters typically last?
Traditional tank water heaters usually last 10-15 years with proper maintenance. Tankless water heaters can last 20+ years. If your water heater is approaching its expected lifespan, it’s wise to start thinking about water heater replacement.
What size water heater do I need?
For tank water heaters, the size you need depends on both the size of your home and your household’s hot water habits. Larger homes, multi-story layouts, long pipe runs, or bathrooms located far from the water heater often require a larger tank or a unit with a higher recovery rate to keep up with demand. Household size still plays a role, but the layout and plumbing distance can be just as important in making sure you don’t run out of hot water. During your free estimate, our plumbers will look at your home’s layout, fixture distance, and usage patterns to recommend the right tank size for reliable hot water.
For tankless systems, we size the unit based on your home’s flow-rate needs—how many fixtures you want to run at the same time and how much hot water they require. We’ll help you choose a tankless system that meets your peak demand so you get continuous hot water whenever you need it.
Can you install a tankless water heater where I currently have a tank?
In most cases, yes—but it may require additional work like upgrading gas lines or electrical service. During your estimate, we’ll assess your current setup and explain exactly what’s involved.
How long does water heater installation take?
Most tank water heater installation projects take 3-5 hours. Tankless installations can take a full day or more, especially if upgrades to gas or electrical systems are needed.
Do you offer water heater maintenance?
Yes! Regular maintenance extends the life of your water heater and keeps it running efficiently. We can flush your tank, inspect safety components, and catch small problems before they become big ones.
What should I do if my water heater is leaking?
Turn off the water supply to the water heater, turn off the power (breaker for electric, gas valve for gas units), and call us right away. Most tank leaks mean it’s time for water heater replacement.
Do you remove old water heaters?
Yes, removal and disposal of your old water heater is included in every water heater replacement we do.
What is a hot water recirculating pump, and how does it work?
A hot water recirculating pump keeps hot water moving through your plumbing system so you get hot water faster at your fixtures. Instead of waiting minutes for the water to heat up, the pump continuously or periodically circulates warm water through the lines, reducing wasted water and improving convenience throughout the home.
Can we install a recirculating pump during a whole-home repipe?
Yes, we can install a recirculating pump during a whole-home repipe or as a standalone upgrade. Because we’re already working on your water lines during a repipe, it’s a great time to add one. We’ll help you choose the right style—dedicated return line or retrofit system—and make sure it’s properly sized for your home so you get hot water quickly and consistently.
Why does it take so long for hot water to reach my tap?
Hot water can take a long time to reach your tap because the water sitting in the pipes has cooled down since the last time you used it. When you turn on the faucet, that cooled-off water has to move out of the line before the heated water from your water heater can reach the fixture. The longer the distance between your water heater and your bathrooms, kitchen, or laundry room—and the larger the home—the longer the wait typically is.
A hot water recirculating pump helps solve this issue by keeping warm water moving through the system so you don’t have to wait minutes for your water to heat up. It reduces water waste, improves comfort, and makes daily tasks like showering, washing dishes, or doing laundry much more convenient.
If you’re dealing with long wait times for hot water, we can help. Our Allbritten technicians can evaluate your home’s plumbing layout, recommend the right type of recirculating pump, and install it so you get fast, reliable hot water exactly where you need it.
