Water Heater Installation Process Pioneer

Simple Installation Process

First, we assess your current setup and hot water needs. This determines whether a tank or tankless water heater installation makes the most sense for your home and budget.

Next, we handle the permits and disconnect your old system safely. For tankless hot water heater installation, we may need to upgrade gas lines or electrical connections to handle the higher demand.

Then we install your new system, test everything thoroughly, and walk you through the operation. We dispose of your old water heater properly and leave your space clean. You get hot water the same day, plus warranty protection on both the equipment and our installation work.
