Water Heater Installation

Massapequa Water Heater Installation

Hot water in your Massapequa, NY, area home can be a costly proposition. According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), water heating accounts for 20 percent of your home’s energy use.

Purchasing the right water heater—and keeping it maintained—can make a significant difference in your energy bills. At Chivalry Plumbing & Heating, we always try to recommend the best plumbing and heating products and services for your New York home. We believe saving money and staying comfortable should always go hand in hand.

That includes your water heater!

Lower Your Water Heating Bills

Upgrading to a high-efficiency water heater offers the best way to save money without compromising comfort. A new water heater minimizes the risk of a costly repair—and the possibility of a leak.

Here are a few other money-saving tips to consider:

  • Many water heater temperatures can be set as high as 140 degrees. Lowering your water heater to 120 degrees will save you money and provide you with all the hot water you need.
  • A conventional water heater constantly heats water—even when you’re sleeping or away from your Massapequa, NY, area home. That drives up your cost. Buy a water heater timer that’s easy to install and set it to the times you shower and do laundry and dishes.
  • Insulate exposed pipes to minimize heat loss—especially if you live in an older home.

Choosing a Water Heater

Choosing the right model and size for your household needs can make a big difference in your comfort and budget. Our installation team at Chivalry Plumbing & Heating will work with you to ensure you pick the best system for your home.

Here are five of the more common water heaters you will find in homes:

  • Conventional storage tank water heaters remain the most common models in New York and other parts of the country. It’s easy to see why: these systems are relatively inexpensive, easy to install, and can operate reliably for many years.
  • Tankless water heaters supply water on demand. When you turn on the faucet, cold water runs through heated coils to provide an endless hot water supply. These systems cost more upfront than storage tank water heaters but operate more efficiently since they only heat water when you need it.
  • Heat pump water heaters—also known as hybrid systems—are great options if you live in a warmer climate. A heat pump water heater uses substantially less energy than a conventional tank. But to enjoy the best results from these models, you need to live in a location where the temperature remains above 40 degrees year-round.
  • Condensing water heaters use your boiler or furnace as a heating source. These systems capture additional heat from flue gases that would otherwise escape through your chimney. A condensing water heater will save you significant money if you live in a household that runs on natural gas.
  • Solar power water heaters are becoming a popular option for many households in the southwest part of the country. These systems are true energy savers—but they are dependent on sunlight.

What is the Average Labor Cost to Install an Electric Water Heater?

The average labor cost to install an electric water heater is between $150 and $500, but it can reach $2,500 when switching from a tank-style water heater to a tankless unit. Labor costs vary based on the length of the job, and plumbers typically charge between $45 and $200 per hour.

Whatever choice you make, you can count on Chivalry Plumbing & Heating to install it correctly and help maintain it so that you enjoy the most value from your investment. Call us today for a consultation.

Water Heater Maintenance

A small dose of preventative maintenance goes a long way toward extending the service life of your water heater. Scheduling annual tune-ups and inspections allow our team to flush your tank of sediments, check the anode rod, test the pressure-relief valve, check the wiring, along with other tasks.

Service calls also allow our technicians to uncover and address minor issues before they turn into costly repairs. You schedule tune-ups and oil changes for your vehicles—apply that same strategy to your plumbing and heating equipment.
