Types of Hot Water Tanks We Install
At Pro Handy Solutions, we install a variety of hot water tanks to meet every homeowner’s needs and budget:
1. Conventional Storage Tank Heaters
The most common type, these models heat and store a set volume—typically 30–80 gallons—ready for use. You’ll choose between gas-fired or electric-powered options, both of which offer reliable performance. Gas tanks heat faster, while electric units are easier and cheaper to install .
2. Tankless (On-Demand) Heaters
Also known as point-of-use or instant hot water systems, these compact units heat water only when you need it—no storage tank required. They offer endless hot water, save space, and cut standby energy loss, though they tend to cost more upfront and require annual maintenance .
3. Hybrid (Heat Pump) Water Heaters
These combine heat pump technology with a storage tank, offering energy savings of up to 60% by extracting heat from the air. They’re eco-friendly and cost-effective long-term – although they need more space and work best in temperate areas
4. Solar & Condensing Heaters
- Solar water heaters use solar panels to heat water, reducing energy bills and carbon footprint—great for homeowners with roof space and rebate interest
Gas condensing heaters capture exhaust heat to further increase efficiency—ideal for homes with natural gas and a focus on utility savings.
Unsure which tank is right for your home? Our licensed experts will help you choose the best type based on household size, budget, space, and energy efficiency goals — making sure your new system fits your lifestyle perfectly.
When Should You Replace Your Hot Water Tank?
Knowing when it’s time to replace your hot water tank can save you from cold showers—or worse, costly water damage. Here are the most reliable warning signs, based on industry best practices and real homeowner experiences:
Your tank is aging
Most traditional tanks last 8–12 years, while tankless systems can run up to 20 years. After 10, it’s wise to monitor your unit closely; by 15 years, replacement is highly recommended.Rusty or discolored water
Brown or metallic-tasting hot water indicates corrosion inside the tank. Flushing may temporarily help, but persistent discoloration often means it’s time to replace.- Strange noises
Crackling, popping, or rumbling sounds point to sediment buildup—a serious issue that can damage components and reduce efficiency. - Inconsistent or insufficient hot water
If your showers go cold quickly—or you’re dealing with temperature fluctuations—it signals potential problems with the heating element, thermostat, or tank size. - Leaks or pooling water
Water around the base of the tank almost always means structural failure—replace it immediately to avoid flooding. - Frequent repairs
Constant service calls, especially for wiring, valves, or heating elements, often cost more than a new unit—and signal it’s time for an upgrade .
Pro Handy Solutions Tip: Don’t wait for failure—if your tank shows any of these signs or is over 10 years old, reach out for a free inspection. We’ll help you decide if a new installation makes sense before it becomes an emergency.

Our Proven Hot Water Tank Installation Process
At Pro Handy Solutions, we follow a meticulous process aligned with industry best practices to ensure your hot water tank is installed safely, efficiently, and code-compliantly
1. Pre-Installation Planning & Permits
We begin by assessing your home’s hot water demands and selecting the right tank size. We measure clearance, ventilation, and cold-water line requirements, and handle all necessary permits to comply with building codes and municipal regulations
2. Preparation & Old Tank Removal
Before starting, we shut off water and utilities. We then drain the old tank safely, disconnect plumbing and gas or electrical connections, and remove the unit—disposing of it following local guidelines
3. New Tank Setup & Mechanical Connections
We secure the new water tank on a level surface with a drain pan underneath. We install essential components like pressure/temperature relief valves, heat traps, expansion tanks, and flexible piping for energy efficiency and safety.
4. Gas, Electrical & Venting Connections
For gas units, we make precise fittings and test for leaks. For electric models, we ensure safe wiring and proper breaker sizing. Venting systems are installed per code to safely expel combustion gases.
5. Filling, Startup & Testing
We perform a full safety inspection (including code compliance), clean up the work area, and walk you through system operation and maintenance tips. You’ll receive documentation, warranty info, and our satisfaction guarantee .
6. Final Inspection, Cleanup & Customer Walkthrough
After filling the tank and purging air from the lines, we power it up, check for leaks, and verify correct function—including T&P valves, thermostats, and flow rates—to guarantee reliable hot water at peak performance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How long does installation take, and what’s included?
Most homeowner questions revolve around time and what’s covered. The standard timeline for a professional hot water tank replacement is 2–4 hours, but it can vary depending on the tank type, existing plumbing, and venting setup.
This includes shutting off utilities, draining and disposing of the old tank, installing the new unit with proper connections, venting, safety checks, and a full system startup.
Should I go tankless or stick with a traditional tanked water heater?
This is one of the most common decision-making questions. Tanked heaters are less expensive upfront and provide ample hot water storage. Tankless units, however, are more efficient, space-saving, and can last up to 20 years—but cost more and may require electrical or gas line upgrades.
Do I need a permit, and will you haul the old tank away?
Yes — permits are typically required for gas or electric water heater installations and inspections to ensure everything meets code.
Most professional services, including Pro Handy Solutions, handle permit acquisition, inspection coordination, and take care of old tank removal and proper disposal—so you don’t have to worry about that extra hassle.
