Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a federal tax credit for a new water heater?

Yes, under the Inflation Reduction Act. A qualifying heat pump water heater (HPWH) earns a federal tax credit of 30% of the purchase and installation cost, up to $2,000 per year. Standard gas or electric resistance tank units do not qualify. To claim the credit, the unit must meet efficiency standards (UEF ≥ 2.0 for most heat pump models) and be installed in your primary residence. Keep your contractor's invoice and the unit's manufacturer certification statement for your tax filing.

Can a gas water heater leak carbon monoxide?

A gas water heater does not produce carbon monoxide from the tank itself, but combustion gases — including CO — can enter your home if the flue or venting system is cracked, blocked, or improperly installed. Signs of a venting problem include soot or black residue around the unit, a yellow burner flame instead of blue, or unexplained headaches and nausea in the home. If you suspect a CO issue, leave immediately and call 911. Annual inspections by a licensed plumber or HVAC tech catch venting problems before they become dangerous.

How far in advance should I schedule a non-emergency water heater replacement?

For a standard tank-for-tank swap, most Washington companies can schedule within 1 to 2 weeks. For tankless installations -- which may require gas line work, electrical upgrades, or special-order units -- allow 2 to 4 weeks. If you are converting fuel types or relocating the unit, add additional time for permits and inspections. Scheduling in advance gives you time to get multiple quotes and choose the right contractor without pressure.

I smell gas near my water heater — what should I do?

A faint gas smell immediately after lighting a pilot is normal and should dissipate quickly. A strong, persistent gas odor is an emergency: do not turn any lights or switches on or off, do not use your phone inside the house, leave immediately, and call your gas utility from outside. Rocky Mountain Power and Dominion Energy Utah both have 24/7 emergency lines. Do not re-enter until a gas company technician has cleared the property. After the gas company clears it, a licensed plumber should inspect all fittings before you use the water heater again.
