Water Heater Replacement Cost Factors
Cost factors
- Tank vs tankless
- Capacity and efficiency
- Fuel type and venting
- Code upgrades (pan, expansion tank, seismic straps where required)
- Disposal of the old unit
Repair vs replace still comes first
A leaking tank usually points toward replacement. A failed element, thermostat, or anode on a younger unit may be a repair. Use the repair or replace guide, then request service on our water heater page.
