Water Heater Installation in Naperville, IL
The right water heater for a Naperville home is the one sized for how many showers run on a weekday morning. We help you pick it, install it to code and give you a flat price first. From our office on Main Street.
When It's Time to Replace Your Water Heater
Replacement makes sense when:
The Tank Leaks
Shut off the water to it and call.
It's Past 10 Years
The manufacture date is on the label.
It Never Keeps Up
Your household outgrew it.
Repairs Keep Coming
The money is better spent on a new one.

4. Test and Walk Through
Leak-tested, settings explained, area cleaned.
Installing Water Heaters in Naperville Homes
About 8 in 10 Naperville homes were built between 1970 and 2009. Replacing a heater in them is usually straightforward, with a few choices to make.
Bigger Tank, Two Tanks or Tankless
For four-bathroom homes, one standard tank may not be enough. A larger tank, two heaters or a tankless unit can solve it.
Power-Vent and High-Efficiency Models
Many newer heaters vent differently from the original. We check the venting before install day.
Expansion Tanks and Shutoffs
Today's installs often need an expansion tank and solid shutoffs. We replace what won't hold.
Planning Ahead Beats a Cold Morning
If your heater is past 10 years old, replacing it on your schedule means you choose the size and model, instead of taking whatever is available on the coldest morning of the year.

"Edgar's the man. Not only did he install my water heater, but asked to test the quality of the water to see if that could've lead to the damage and the leak of my last water heater. My water was at a 7 on the hardness scale, and it's supposed to be at 2 or 3. So he reccomends a new water softener, and im thankful that he did. [...]"
