Water Heaters
Repair and replacement for tank and tankless water heaters that leak, make noise or run out of hot water too fast.
A restaurant on the Riverwalk, a marina shop on the Chain O'Lakes or a salon on Route 31. When the water heater goes down, so does business. We repair, replace and descale commercial water heaters for McHenry businesses from our office on West Elm Street.

We keep hot water flowing for:
Dish machines and handwashing stations can't wait for hot water.
Shampoo bowls and treatment rooms run all day.
Restrooms and exam rooms need steady hot water.
Busy summers put extra demand on heaters that sit lightly used in winter.
One team for the life of your heater:
Commercial gas and electric tanks and tankless units, diagnosed and priced first.
Sized to your busiest hour and scheduled around your hours where we can.
Hard groundwater builds scale fast in a heater that runs all day. Scheduled service keeps it efficient.

Our office at 3406 W Elm St is in McHenry, close to downtown, Route 31 and the lake communities.
A commercial heater heats far more water than a home unit, so scale from local groundwater builds up faster. Descaling on a schedule protects your investment.
Our line is open 24/7, and we work to get a plumber to you as soon as we can.
Flat-rate pricing before any work begins.
