What affects the price

The final price for a new water heater depends on a few moving parts. First, you have to choose the right fuel source—gas or electric—and decide if you want to stick with a standard tank or upgrade to a tankless model. We also look at the physical space where it sits and whether your current venting or gas lines meet modern safety codes. If we need to move the unit or upgrade plumbing to get it up to speed, that shifts the labor involved. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

A tankless water heater heats water only as it passes through the unit, saving space and energy by eliminating a storage tank. This is a great choice if you want endless hot water or are looking to lower your monthly utility bills. Installing one involves upgrading gas lines or electrical circuits to meet the unit's power needs. Total costs depend on the capacity required for your household. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

While you might not think about hot water as much in the summer, it is a great time to evaluate your system’s health. Because the incoming groundwater is warmer, your heater doesn't have to work as hard, making it a stress-free window to replace an aging unit before you hit the busy autumn season.

Frequently asked in Lubbock

What is the average cost of putting in a water heater?

What is the most efficient type of water heater?

Tankless water heaters are generally the most energy-efficient option available. They heat water only when you need it, which significantly reduces wasted energy compared to traditional tank models that continuously heat and reheat water. This can lead to lower utility bills over time for your Lubbock home.

What are signs I need a new water heater?

You should consider a new water heater if you notice insufficient hot water, unusual noises like banging or popping, or if you see leaks around the base of the unit. Discolored water or a metallic smell can also be indicators of a problem. If your current heater is over a decade old, it might be nearing the end of its service life.

What is the most common problem with a hot water heater?

Sediment buildup in the tank is a very common issue for traditional water heaters, leading to reduced efficiency and noise. Another frequent problem is a malfunctioning thermostat or heating element, which can result in no hot water or fluctuating temperatures. Leaks are also a common concern as units age and corrode.

Is it worth it to repair a hot water heater?

Repairing a water heater is often worthwhile for younger units with minor issues, such as a faulty thermocouple or a simple leak that can be sealed. However, if the unit is old, showing signs of rust, or if the tank itself is compromised, replacement is usually the more economical choice in the long run. A professional assessment is recommended.

How long do hot water heaters typically last?

Most standard tank water heaters have a lifespan of about 10 to 15 years. Tankless water heaters, on the other hand, can often last 20 years or more with proper maintenance. Factors like water quality and how frequently the unit is used play a significant role in its longevity. This timeframe is important for budgeting and planning replacements in Lubbock.
