A well-maintained tank water heater can typically last between 8 to 12 years. However, actual lifespan may vary depending on the quality of the unit, the water quality in your area, and how well the unit is maintained.

What size tank water heater do I need for my home?

The size of the tank water heater you need depends on the number of people in your household and your hot water usage. For example, a family of four typically needs a 50-60 gallon tank. However, it’s best to consult with a professional plumber to determine the most appropriate size for your specific needs.

Austin F.

We actually had two different calls going at once. Tyler did an amazing job on the water heater replacement. He went above and beyond. Patrick worked on our hvac pump. Patrick gave us some hints on keeping our hvac pump running smoothly, which we greatly appreciate. Tyler, Zak and Patrick were all knowledgeable and explained everything in a way I understood. We've used HEP for years, and will continue to do so!

Brandy C.

I called Hep to replace my hot water heater and my furnace! When my furnace leaked they came right out and fixed it! Today my air conditioning was freezing up and they sent a repair man out... He cleaned the unit and put some freon in it and it's working great...The price was reasonable too! Much better than them trying to sell me a brand new unit which we cant afford right now!! Very pleased with Doug, the repairman, he was very professional and courteous!

Hope R.

Leda M.

Booked on Sunday for Monday. Jeremiah called to let us know he was on his way and arrived when he said he would. He assessed the issue (clogged drains) and performed a preventative maintenance inspection, noting our water heater was also leaking a little and pretty old, he gave us options for replacement if we were interested but didn't push too much, as well as prices for the original issue. We declined the water heater and he started his work. When he was done he cleaned everything up and verified operation of the drains and charged us exactly what he said it would be. Will definitely us HEP in the future for any need we have.
