Professional Water Heater Repair in Seattle
There are two main concerns in water heater repair: restoring reliable, efficient hot water production, and protecting your home against damage from leaks and tank failure. Our skilled plumbers can inspect your hot water heater and determine what water heater repairs it needs, from burner or electric heater repairs to tank servicing. If your tank-based unit is getting older, the possibility of severe damage from leaks may lead to a discussion about water heater replacement as well.
Your home’s traditional tank-based water heater typically lasts over a decade, and it keeps using energy to keep about 40 gallons of water hot. Homeowners in Seattle consider hybrid tank-based water heaters that use heat pump technology to warm the water, saving significantly on energy costs. They also look to tankless water heaters that not only use energy on an as-needed basis for substantial savings, they also last much longer than tank-based units. However, installation costs tend to be higher.

Save Long-Term with a Tankless Water Heater in Seattle
A traditional water heater is more cost-effective up front, but uses more energy and produces higher energy bills than tankless. It heats the water in the tank, regardless of whether you actually need hot water or not. It then replenishes the tank and heats it back up when any is used.
A tankless water heater heats the water as it is used – instead of wasting energy pre-heating water to a predetermined temperature and keeping this water hot. Never run out of hot water with a tankless water heater.
Traditional Water Heaters
Less expensive up-front, but has about half the lifespan of a tankless heater.
Tankless Water Heaters
More expensive up-front. More energy efficient and will lower your energy bills.
