Phoenix Water Heater Repair and Replacement

Water Heater Installation

You would think something as “simple” as a water heater would be an easy selection and installation. But with today’s technology, water heaters have evolved. At Day & Night Air, we review new advancements to provide the Phoenix-area community with the most up-to-date advice when choosing a standard water heater.

Water Heater Repair

Standard vs. Tankless

Your first decision with a new water heater installation is to decide between a standard tank or tankless system. A standard water heater provides plenty of hot water for showers, clothes washing and dishes. Tankless systems heat water on demand. Most Arizona homeowners opt for standard, tanked hot water heaters because of four issues:

  • Purchase price
  • Installation cost
  • Hot water demand
  • Phoenix’s hard water

Tankless systems are great for single people or small families with minimal water use, as they typically cannot keep up with the high demands of a full house or the hard water found in most Phoenix homes. It’s something to consider if your household enjoys the relaxing comfort of long showers to counter the dry heat. Call us for any Phoenix drain cleaning issues. We can handle all types of water heater services, including tankless water heater repair.

Heating Element

Your next decision in selecting a standard tank water heater is the fuel. You have four options:

  • Gas: Using either piped natural gas or tanked liquid propane, a gas-fueled water heater can produce hot water quickly. Gas requires expert installation and service by highly trained professionals.
  • Solar: With Phoenix’s abundant sunshine, solar water heaters are possible and energy efficient. You can opt for a passive or active system, but consider a backup.
  • Electric: An electric water heater installation is easier than gas installation but costs more than gas to operate.
  • Hybrid electric: Combining heat pump and water heater technology for great efficiency and high hot water delivery rates.

Once you determine you want a standard water heater and have selected the fuel source, you also must determine the tank capacity. Another consideration is the “First Hour Rating”(FHR), which tells you how much water the tank can provide in its first hour of supply.
