Payless Water Heaters Offers Qualified Installers

If you have purchased a new water heater, you will need it properly installed in your home. Without proper installation and maintenance, your new water heater will not yield optimum results. In fact, proper installation and maintenance of your water heater will enhance the energy efficiency of the unit and save you money in the long run. However, finding a qualified water heater installation technician is easier said than done. How do you know which company to trust? Do you hire a plumber? Or do you hire a heating contractor? Here’s a brief guide on how to select the right professional to install your water heater.

Go with a reputable water heater installer company. This type of business exists. Water heater installers specialize in the installation of water heaters – that’s all they do. If you contact a plumber, for example, he or she might not have the right tools and experience to properly install your water heater. However, a water heater installer company has trained technicians who are qualified to install and repair your water heater. They have all the tools and they install water heaters from morning to night, and on the weekends. In addition to having the right tools and experience, a reputable water heater installer company is also knowledgeable of local permit rules and water heater installation codes. The right company will know where to get a local permit and will understand local building codes.

Make sure the technician is factor trained. Whether you have purchased a Bradford White water heater or a Noritz water heater, make sure that the company you choose has factory trained technicians. This means that the technicians have been trained and certified by the manufacturer of the brand of your water heater. If you own a Bradford White water heater, for example, search for a technician who is factory trained and certified by Bradford White Corporation. Factory trained technicians not only know what they are doing, but they have the training and experience to install or repair every model under the name brand, including the latest models on the market.

Ensure that the technician is a company employee. Some companies hire sub-contractors to do the work that their own technicians are unable to do. However, a sub-contractor might not be required to have the same credentials or experience as a technician who is a company employee. In addition, a sub-contractor might not have the same references as the employees of the company have. For these reasons, check with the water heater installer company to make sure they are sending a company employee, someone who is wearing a company uniform and is backed by the company.
