Water Heater Replacement

*Same day replacement in most cases!*

You probably don’t worry about your water heater until you get hit with that first icy shower or find giant puddle in the basement. The average life expectancy for a water heater is 8-15 years. If your water heater is older and nearing the end of its life expectancy, then the obvious choice is to replace it. A newer model water heater can be up to 20% more efficient and can save you $700 in energy costs over the lifespan of the unit.

Rheem- Conventional Water Heaters

If your water heater is not working correctly, then give Waukesha Plumbing a call. Waukesha Plumbing recommends Rheem water heaters, but we also offer Bradford White water heaters for the exact same price. The atmospheric vent typically runs into chimney or b-vent with a metal flue- standard old fashion water heater.

Whatever your water heater installation needs, our flat rate pricing on water heater replacement includes hauling the old one away. Old water heaters are very big and bulky and our #1 concern is protecting your home, so we wrap the old heater up in a plastic tarp before carrying it through your house to prevent getting rust water all over your floors.

*Pricing covers new heater, and removal of old heater.

Extra’s (if needed): gas valve, water valve , existing recirc line (extra), permit- otherwise everything should be included in the standard flat rate pricing.
