Water heater replacement for apartments, HOAs and multifamily buildings

Sound familiar?

The problems we solve every week

  • One leak, three damaged units

    In stacked buildings a failed tank floods neighbors below. Planned replacement costs far less than water damage.

  • Unpredictable capital costs

    We inventory every unit so you can budget replacements by age and condition instead of by emergency.

  • Turnover delays

    Swap water heaters during unit turns so the next resident moves in without a service call.

"On a quiet Sunday morning our 25-year-old water heater started leaking. Jen answered in two rings, gathered the make, model and capacity, and gave a detailed, very fair quote immediately. In about 60 minutes, on a Sunday, Mathieu arrived and had the new water heater installed with a drain pan, expansion tank and earthquake straps in under two hours. HOTCO turned a disastrous weekend surprise into a non-event."

"I contacted HOTCO on a Friday night, and by Monday afternoon we had a new 40 gallon Bradford White water heater professionally installed. Charles was prompt, polite and very knowledgeable, had the old heater out and the new one in within two hours, then explained everything he did. We got both value and quality work."

"We woke up Saturday to our water heater leaking into the tray. The nice lady who answered the phone hooked us up right away and Charles showed up at 1:00 p.m. He was friendly, polite, respectful and knowledgeable. My wife and I are seniors and we really appreciate the rapid response."
