Types of Water Heaters to Consider
There are two main categories of water heaters: tank and tankless. A tank-based water heater uses a tank to store hot water all the time, whereas a tankless water heater heats hot water on-demand as you need it. For some, a tankless water heater is more than enough for their hot water needs, but for others, especially large families, a tank-based water heater is the way to go.
Most homeowners choose to replace what they already have or go with a newer, more modern water heater. If you use electric, you’ll tend to stay with electric or go with an electric-hybrid. If you are currently using a gas water heater, you’d stay with a gas water heater. Heritage will consider the fuel source, how old your home is, and where your tank is located to give you all the options for your home’s new water heater.
One of the final decisions you’ll make when choosing a new water heater is the size. Most homes use a 20 to an 80-gallon water tank, with the most common size being a 40-gallon tank.

When my AC quit suddenly, Heritage came in a timely fashion and did an excellent job. The four gentlemen who helped me were professional and knowledgeable. Joe diagnosed the problem and was very thorough in explaining the cost of repair versus replacement. Bobby, Harrison and the electrician Liam did the replacement and were wonderful to work with. They explained the process carefully, answered all my questions and completed the job efficiently and quickly. I would certainly call the company again for any HVAC, plumbing or electrical needs. Thanks Heritage!

First time using Heritage, as two other plumbers I’ve used in the past gave me long lead times. Heritage answered my call personally, and scheduled me same day-amazing considering it was a Saturday! I had a leaking outdoor spigot, and given the drought, waiting a week to fix it was out of the question. The technician sent out, James Shallow, could not have been more professional, knowledgeable and personable. He showed up on time, did the job seamlessly and without issue. He spent time educating us as to how to avoid this problem in the future, and it was a genuinely pleasant experience. I will most definitely use & recommend Heritage again (request Jimmy).

Alex came to fix a water main leak at my home which was pre-manufactured in the late eighties. He found and fixed the leak quickly. After the job was complete I spoke with him about the cause because this is the third time in a year with a leak. He spent the time with me explaining the material used for piping in my place and checked the water pressure. The pressure was on the high end and we both concluded between pressure spikes and old plastic pipes. I asked for an estimate to replace all the pipes. He was able to give me an estimate on the spot and found financing with very reasonable terms. Two days later Heritage Home Services was here with two trucks and completely changed out the piping in a day. In short. This place answers the phone. Gets technician on the job quickly. Great knowledge. Cleaned thoroughly before leaving.

We called several plumbers and I got “we are too busy” and “it’s too small of a job”. Not with heritage though! They were able to get us on the schedule in a timely manner and helped us with our plumbing issue. Thank you Zach! Zach was quick and professional! Will definitely use again!

I’ve dealt with Heritage for many years because of their dependability. They are not the cheapest, for sure, but if you need a plumbing or HVAC system installed or serviced/repaired, there’s none better. I needed repairs to be done on slim duct covers that were damaged after having siding installed on my home. I called Heritage because they were the company that installed the original mini-split system in my house several years earlier. John Lindonen and another technician (unfortunately, I don’t remember his name) showed up as committed and did the repair work. They were very thorough, explaining every issue to me and answered all of my questions. They were polite, and extremely knowledgeable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these guys to my family or friends.

The AI interactive was ok but screwed up my ph# so never got a call. However, Camile arrived and spent time discussing my points and activities performed, helped me tremendously and ultimately didn’t need service. He was professional, informative, and transparent so Heritage, please acknowledge his great service!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How do I know when it is time to replace my water heater?
Most traditional tank water heaters last 8 to 12 years. Signs that replacement is needed include rusty or discolored hot water, rumbling or banging noises from the tank, visible leaks or corrosion around the base, inconsistent water temperatures, and rising energy bills. Heritage can inspect your water heater and recommend whether repair or replacement is the better option.
-
What types of water heaters does Heritage install?
Heritage installs traditional tank water heaters, tankless water heaters, and hybrid heat pump water heaters in both gas and electric configurations. Our licensed plumbers will evaluate your household hot water demand, available space, and energy preferences to recommend the best option for your home.
-
How long does a water heater installation take?
A standard water heater replacement typically takes a few hours to complete. If the installation requires changes to your plumbing, gas line, venting, or electrical connections, the job may take longer. Heritage provides a clear timeline during your estimate so you know what to expect.
-
Does Heritage offer financing for water heater installation?
Yes. Heritage offers financing options to help New Hampshire homeowners manage the cost of a new water heater installation. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees so you can make an informed decision before work begins.
-
Should I choose a gas or electric water heater for my New Hampshire home?
The right choice depends on your home’s existing infrastructure, energy costs, and hot water demand. Gas water heaters typically heat water faster and cost less to operate, while electric models are easier to install and do not require venting. Heritage can help you weigh the pros and cons based on your specific situation.
