Water Heater Installation: common questions
- Is installation different from replacement?
- Yes. Replacement swaps a heater in the same spot. Installation involves new piping or a new location, so there is more to plan.
- Can a water heater be moved out of the attic?
- Often, depending on where lines can run. Describe your layout when you call.
- Do I need a second water heater?
- If one bathroom waits a long time for hot water, or demand exceeds one tank, a second heater is one option to discuss.
