Water Heater Installs

White-glove water heater installation. Do it once, do it right.

Licensed electric and high-efficiency heat-pump water heater replacement across Florida — permit, haul-away, code-safe install, and a workmanship guarantee handled start to finish. No driveway sales pitch; the plan is set before the crew arrives.

What's included

Every install is the full job — not just a tank swap.

Skipping code-required components or deferred-maintenance steps is how you get a failed inspection, a callback, or a warranty dispute. Our standard scope includes all of it:

01

Permit & inspection handled

Pulled and scheduled start to finish — you don't file anything.

02

Old tank removed & disposed

Safe removal and haul-away of your old water heater.

03

Emergency overflow drain pan

A drain pan with a proper drain line to an approved point, where feasible.

04

New full-port shut-off valve

Installed on the cold supply so the unit is easy to service.

05

Code-safe relief piping

A new temperature & pressure (T&P) discharge line to an approved termination.

06

Pressure/relief valve if required

A pressure-reducing/vacuum-relief valve added only when local code and your home's water pressure call for it.

07

Thermal expansion tank if required

Added only when local code requires it, and sized to your system.

08

Corrosion protection & clean connections

Dielectric nipples/unions and braided stainless steel supply lines.

09

Power & fit check

Clearances, venting (where applicable), and the correct circuit/breaker or supply verified before install.

10

Electrical reconnection to code

Proper electrical whip and bonding on electric models.

11

Heat-pump condensate & pan management

Condensate and drainage handled correctly on heat-pump models.

12

Startup & safety test

Fill, purge, leak-check, set to a safe 120°F, verify safety devices, and label the shut-offs.

13

Cleanup, haul-away & documentation

Plus help registering the manufacturer warranty so your coverage is active.

14

1-year workmanship guarantee

A 100% satisfaction guarantee on the installation.

Electric or heat pump

Two efficient ways to make hot water.

Electric tank

Straightforward, reliable, and available in the widest range of sizes and shapes — ideal for closets, utility spaces, and tight clearances. The simplest fit for most homes.

What replacement includes →

Hybrid heat pump

Moves heat from the surrounding air into the water instead of generating it — far more efficient, and a natural fit for warm Florida garages and utility rooms, where it also dehumidifies the space.

Common questions

Water heater installation FAQ.

What kinds of water heaters do you install?

Electric tank water heaters and high-efficiency hybrid heat-pump water heaters, from Bradford White and Rheem, in sizes from 30 to 80 gallons and in standard, tall, and short/lowboy configurations. We focus on electric and heat-pump systems — we do not install gas or tankless units.

What's included in a water heater installation?

Everything the job actually needs: the permit and inspection, safe removal and haul-away of your old tank, code-safe relief piping, required safety devices like an overflow pan and expansion tank where code calls for them, corrosion-resistant connections, a full startup and safety test set to a safe 120°F, manufacturer warranty registration help, and a one-year workmanship guarantee.

Can I add a water heater when I replace my AC?

Yes. If you're already replacing your air conditioner, adding a water heater to the same project means one assessment, one coordinated visit, and one closeout — instead of scheduling a separate job later.

How do I know what size I need?

It depends on your household's hot-water demand and the space the unit goes in. Our online intake captures both so the recommendation fits your home — see our water heater sizing guide for how that works.

Who does the installation?

A DBPR-licensed plumbing contractor (CFC050548). The permit is pulled as a standard part of the job and the inspection result is part of your closeout documentation.
