Hot Water When You Need It

Norton's Plumbing And Heating installs and replaces residential water heaters for homeowners in Kenmore.

When your water heater stops producing hot water or begins leaking onto the basement floor in your Kenmore home, the inconvenience is immediate. Norton's Plumbing And Heating works with standard residential tank systems and provides honest recommendations based on how many people use hot water in your home and how old your current system is.

This service includes removing the old unit, installing a new water heater that matches your household demand, and ensuring all connections meet safety and efficiency standards. Emergency water heater service is available when systems fail unexpectedly, and commercial water heater services follow the same installation practices. Free estimates are provided upfront so you know what to expect before any work begins.

If your water heater is showing signs of age or failure, Norton's Plumbing And Heating can assess your system and provide clear guidance on replacement options in Kenmore.

What Happens During a Water Heater Replacement

The process begins with draining the old tank, disconnecting the water and power or gas lines, and carefully removing the unit from your Kenmore home. The new water heater is then positioned, connected, and tested to ensure it heats properly and does not leak.

Once the installation is complete, you will have consistent hot water again and no more puddles or rust stains around the unit. The new system will operate more reliably and with better efficiency than a failing tank.

Norton's Plumbing And Heating focuses on quality workmanship that prioritizes safety, efficiency, and longevity. This service does not include upgrades to tankless systems or solar water heating, but it does cover standard residential tank replacements that are common in Erie County homes.

Common Concerns Before Replacing a Water Heater

Homeowners usually want to know how long the work will take, what size tank they need, and whether their current setup requires any changes.

How do I know when my water heater needs to be replaced?
You should consider replacement if the tank is leaking, producing inconsistent hot water, making loud popping or banging sounds, or is over ten years old. Rust-colored water is another sign of internal corrosion.
What size water heater do I need?
Norton's Plumbing And Heating will recommend a size based on how many people live in your home and your typical hot water usage. A household of four typically needs a 40 to 50 gallon tank.
How long does a water heater installation take?
Most replacements are completed in two to four hours depending on access to the unit and whether any modifications to connections are needed.
Can you install a water heater the same day it fails?
Norton's Plumbing And Heating offers emergency water heater service and will work to restore hot water as quickly as possible when systems fail unexpectedly in Kenmore.
What happens to my old water heater?
The old unit is removed from your home and disposed of properly as part of the installation service.
