Water Heaters

If your old water heater no longer performs up to the desired standards, it is probably time to consider a new one. An average water heater lasts 10 to 15 years before it starts to wear down.

Replacing it with a high-efficiency model only makes sense since water heating accounts for approximately 18 percent of your utility bill, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

Our team at Basnett Plumbing, Heating, AC & Electrical can help you select a quality water heater for your home in Littleton, MA and throughout the MetroWest Boston area.

Considering just how many options there are on the market today, it can be a challenge to figure out what type of water heater is right for you. There are plenty of factors to consider: your budget, energy-efficiency ratings, and whether you want a conventional tank, tankless, or indirect fired water heater.

Our plumbers will help you every step of the way in finding the right system for your needs and personal user preferences. We use only high-quality equipment from leading manufacturers, and we are eager to assist you. We offer a wide variety of models, and our experts will install whichever water heater is best suited for your needs to ensure you receive the best service.

Types of Water Heaters

Selecting a high-efficiency model can lower your energy bills as well as provide hot water when you need it most. Talk to our experienced Master Plumbers, and we will work with you to make the best selection.

Tank Water Heaters

Conventional tank water heaters are the most popular choice in homes around the country. They are reliable, efficient, and reasonably priced. Our expert plumbers will help you choose the right system based on your needs and personal preferences. Be sure to look for an insulated tank system to reduce heat loss and lower operating expenses in the winter.

Tankless Water Heaters

A tankless water heater offers greater energy efficiency and long service life. Trust our team at Basnett to recommend the right tankless water heater for your home in Massachusetts and to install it correctly, seamlessly integrating it with your existing plumbing system.

Indirect Fired Water Heaters

This type of water heater uses the thermal energy from your boiler or furnace to heat your water. While it requires a storage tank, an indirect fired water heater is an extremely efficient system that recovers quickly, so you rarely have to wait for your hot water. This makes this type of water heater a popular option along with a tankless water heater.

Water Heater Installation

A water heater installed incorrectly can leak out and create a mess. Trust our professional plumbers to install a new water heater or replace your old one. We offer installation and replacement services for a wide variety of water heaters.

Water Heater Repair

In addition to new system installations, we also specialize in diagnosing water heater problems that can hamper your system’s operation. Whether you lack sufficient hot water or you suspect that you are paying too much for hot water, we offer prompt service. Our plumbers have the skill and expertise to work with all makes and models. If you think there is a problem with your water heater, we can fix it fast and efficiently.

Water Heater Maintenance

Maintaining your plumbing equipment is essential to ensuring a long service life. We offer our Ultimate Plumbing, HVAC, and Electrical Maintenance Plans that offset the cost of inspections, tune-ups, and other services for either a tank, tankless, or indirect fired water heater systems. Schedule a standard tune-up with our team at Basnett to ensure you get the best performance from your system.

Water Heater Installation in Acton, MA 01720

“Sam and Josh did a great job replacing our two separate water heaters with one consolidated system. This required repiping in places and getting equipment in and out of tight spaces. They were very professional, did a fantastic job, and cleaned up better than I expected after they were done with their work. We needed to take down part of our ceiling to access the water pipes and they did the smallest and neatest cut possible, making it very easy to fix the ceiling quickly. We're very happy with their work.”
