A new water heater is a big purchase. Here at Longmont Water Heaters we chat about what you have, I look as some pics you take, and then I give you a price in advance so you know exactly what it will cost.
Longmont Water Heaters's focus is water heaters and water heaters only. Mike used to own and operate Greater Western Plumbing, but when that ended he wanted to hone in his focus to his specialty, WATER HEATERS!
At Longmont Water Heaters, all I do is water heaters in Longmont. It is my specialty and I do a lot of them. Give me a call at 970-389-2285 and lets talk about your water heater.
Yes I do venture out of Longmont (but not too far). I provide the same timing and level of service to the Niwot community as I do with Longmont.
There is a large variety in pricing and it is based on what you choose to get. Generally your tankless are more expensive than the tanked options. Usually my goal is to give you the modern equivalent of what you already have installed. Give me a call and we can discuss options. Also we have a pricing calculator at the top of the page to give yourself an idea.
I can typically do next day service if you are doing a "like for like" water heater swap.
The actual installation will usually take 2-6 hours depending on the tank water heater you choose.
For a tank to tankless swap it usually takes 1-2 days.
Most people don't swap thier water heaters until it is to late. Know that you are not alone.
1. Turn off the gas valve.
2. Unplug it if it has a plug in.
3. There should be a shut off valve above your water heater (usually on the right, cold inlet) close that. You have now limited the amount of water that will continue to leak.
4. Take a deep breath. You already made the right first step in coming here.
Listed from most common to least common:
1. Gas Tank - Atmospheric vent - That is the thin metal vent coming out of the top
2. Electric Tank - Wire coming out of the top
3. Power Direct Vent - 2 PVC pipes coming out of the top
4. Power Vent - a Fan on top and then a single pipe either PVC or metal coming out of the top
5. Gas Tankless - no tank, 1 or 2 pipes coming out of the top. For more info on whether a tankless is right for you, click here
6. Electric Tankless - we don't see to many of these around Longmont
7. Sidearm - A sidearm is a storage tank without a heating mechanism, so the water would get heated somewhere else like a boiler next to the sidearm
