Trusted Tank Water Heater Experts in Lafayette

In Lafayette, traditional tank water heaters remain a cost‑effective, dependable way to deliver steady hot
water. Our licensed plumbers right‑size systems for your fixtures, lifestyle, and available space, then
install to California Plumbing Code.

Many condos and townhomes have limited utility closets, so compact, high‑recovery tanks make sense.

Older bungalows and mid‑century homes benefit from code upgrades like seismic strapping and new shut‑offs.

Large households with multiple bathrooms may need 75‑gallon tanks or recirculation to prevent cold‑water
delays.

Common issues we solve for Lafayette homeowners include:

- Unstable water pressure and temperature swings can be reduced with expansion tanks and mixing valves.

- Intermittent hot water points to thermostat, gas control, or pilot assembly issues.

- Popping or rumbling noises indicate sediment buildup and the need for flushing or replacement.

- Discolored or rusty hot water can signal a failing anode rod or tank corrosion.

To improve performance and reliability, we often recommend:

- Swap aging shut‑off valves with full‑port ball valves for easier service and better reliability.

- Upgrading to high‑recovery gas models reduces wait times and improves comfort for busy households.

- Proper flue venting and combustion air ensure safe, efficient operation in tight mechanical spaces.

Every Lafayette install includes clear pricing, permits when required, and careful cleanup. We handle
haul‑away of your old unit, test safety devices, and walk you through operation so you know exactly how your
system works.
