Water Heater Installation Services in Memphis

Sooner or later, it will be time to replace an old water heater. Your water heater has likely kept your family supplied with hot water for many years. It may have been there as your children have grown and has been an unseen part of the household yet has been integral to everyone’s comfort and well-being. But, after about ten to twenty years, it may be time to say goodbye.

The process of installing a new water heater is more complex than you may think. Someone who has never done it before may simply think it means taking out the old one and taking in the new one. However, it is not that simple and is generally best left up to the professionals.

Installing a Water Heater

Installing a water heater takes some specialized tools that many homeowners may not have on hand, like pipe cutters and various hoses. It also requires a knowledge of building codes, any necessary permits, as well as residential electrical and plumbing systems. It’s also important to have protective gear for your furniture and other parts of your home so that nothing gets damaged during the installation. For all of these reasons, it’s best to have a new water heater professionally installed.

In general, the steps for water heater installation include:

  • Removing the old water heater, including shutting off the power and draining water from the old unit
  • Transporting the new unit into place, while protecting your home from damage
  • Using the hose kit to connect the water
  • Installing and securing all fittings
  • Cutting the pipes that need to be cut
  • Filling the tank, then flushing it, and making sure it is filled again
  • Attaching the ground wire
  • Setting the water temperature to the appropriate temperature and testing the water to make sure it’s accurate
  • Making sure the pressure is correct

All of these steps must be done correctly and up to Memphis, TN, codes, or else you will have many problems down the road. It’s easy to see that many homeowners simply don’t have the experience necessary for this type of installation themselves.

Determining What Type of Water Heater You Need

The type and size of your water heater will depend on the size of the household. Sometimes, one tankless water heater will be enough to supply a small household with water. If your family is large, if you are planning on having little ones in the future, or have frequent guests, a storage water heater or multiple tankless heaters may be needed.
