How Much Does Water Heater Replacement Cost in Sacramento?
What goes into the price of a new tank, tankless or heat pump water heater, and how to avoid surprise add-on fees.
The price of a new water heater depends on more than the unit itself. Labor, permits, code upgrades and haul-away can add hundreds of dollars if a company does not include them up front.
What affects the price
- Type: tank, tankless or heat pump.
- Size: 40, 50 or 75 gallons for tanks, or flow rate for tankless.
- Fuel: natural gas, propane or electric.
- Code upgrades: seismic straps, expansion tank, drip leg, gas shut-off valve and venting.
- Location: garage, closet, attic or crawlspace.
Watch out for add-on fees
Many companies quote a low base price, then add charges for straps, expansion tanks, permits and disposal. HOTCO quotes include the hardware, labor, delivery, haul-away and code-required safety parts, so the number you hear is the number you pay.
