Can I install a water heater by myself safely and correctly?

You can, but the safest, most reliable option is licensed installation by a professional. Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling installs traditional and tankless units, handles sizing and replacement, and offers 24/7 emergency response in the Dayton and Mason areas. A pro visit also helps you decide repair vs. replace using the 50% rule.

Quick checks:

  • If repair exceeds 50% of a new unit, consider replacement.
  • Ask for help selecting the right size and type for your home.
