Frequently Asked Questions

What gas line upgrades might a tankless water heater require?

Whole-home tankless water heaters demand significantly more gas than tank units -- often 150,000 to 200,000 BTU versus 40,000 BTU for a tank. That means many homes need a larger-diameter gas line (typically upgrading from 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch or 1 inch), which requires a licensed gas plumber and a permit. The upgrade runs $300 to $1,000 depending on the run length. Some homes also need their gas meter upgraded by the utility. A plumber should assess your gas supply before recommending a tankless unit.

What questions should I ask a water heater company before hiring?

Before hiring any Davis County plumber, ask: Are you licensed and insured in Utah? Will you pull the required permit? What brands do you carry and why? Is this price the total installed cost, including haul-away and any required code upgrades like an expansion tank? And what warranty do you offer on labor? A reputable company answers all of these without hesitation.

What size water heater do home builders typically install?

Production builders typically install the minimum code-compliant water heater for the square footage -- often a 40 or 50-gallon gas unit for a 3 to 4 bedroom home. Builder-grade units are frequently entry-level models chosen for cost, not longevity or efficiency. They meet code but may not meet the actual hot water demand of a large family or homes with multiple bathrooms. Upgrading to a larger or more efficient unit before move-in (while access is still easy) is significantly cheaper than replacing it after the home is finished.

How do I winterize my water heater if my house will be empty?

If the home will be completely unheated during a Utah winter, the water heater and all plumbing must be properly winterized to prevent freezing damage. Steps: shut off the main water supply, turn off power or gas to the water heater, connect a hose to the drain valve and drain the tank completely, open the hot water faucets throughout the house to release pressure and allow the system to drain, and open the T&P valve briefly to break the vacuum. A licensed plumber can winterize the full system in 1 to 2 hours.
