How Do I Know When It’s Time to Replace My Water Heater?

If your water heater is over 8–12 years old, isn’t heating efficiently, or needs frequent repairs, it may be time for a replacement. Other signs include rust-colored water, strange noises, and visible leaks. We’ll inspect your unit and give you honest guidance on whether repair or replacement makes more sense.

What Size Water Heater Do I Need for My Home?

The right size depends on your household’s hot water usage and number of occupants. We’ll assess your needs and recommend a system that balances efficiency with performance. Proper sizing ensures consistent hot water and helps prevent overpaying on energy bills.

Are Tankless Water Heaters a Good Option for My Household?

Tankless water heaters are ideal for homes looking to save space and reduce energy use. They heat water on demand, which means no standby energy loss and virtually unlimited hot water. We’ll help you determine if a tankless system fits your family’s lifestyle and plumbing setup.

What’s Included in Your Water Heater Installation Service?

Our full-service installation includes removal and disposal of your old unit, delivery and hookup of the new one, all necessary connections, and testing to ensure proper operation. We also provide instruction on how to use and maintain your new system.

Can You Help Me Choose an Energy-Efficient Model?

Yes! We work with high-efficiency tank and tankless models from trusted brands. Our team will help you select a system that fits your home, usage habits, and budget—while helping you lower utility costs over time.

How Long Does a Water Heater Installation Take?

Most installations can be completed in a single day. We’ll provide a clear schedule up front and work efficiently to minimize disruption. Our team comes prepared to ensure a smooth and timely installation.

Do I Need to Upgrade My Plumbing or Electrical System for a New Unit?

In some cases—especially when switching from tank to tankless—you may need upgraded venting, gas lines, or electrical connections. We’ll review your existing setup and let you know exactly what’s needed. If upgrades are necessary, we’ll handle them safely and professionally.

Is Your Installation Work Covered by a Guarantee?

Yes, all of our installation services are backed by a workmanship guarantee. We also honor manufacturer warranties on the equipment we install. If you experience any issues, we’ll make it right.

I had a great experience with Advocate Plumbing. My house is over 100 years old with a lot of weird plumbing and Brian did a great job. I had my water heater flushed and some other small but needed replacements done. Brian was friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend them to others and I would use them again in the future.

Jeremy the owner is a stand-up guy. He obviously cares about doing a good job, and that culture is reflected with his employees as well. He is knowledgeable and honest and I would recommend Advocate to any of my friends and family who needs a plumber.

I saw water bubbling up between our meter pit and the house. A friend recommended Advocate Plumbing. Jeremy sent a tech out immediately to confirm the break, gave me a quote, and scheduled the work for the next morning. The crew arrived on time and completed the line replacement and interior work in less than 7 hours. They were all professional and polite. They cleaned up after and minimized damage to the yard. Like my friend, I will not hesitate to recommend Advocate Plumbing to anyone.

We reached out to Advocate after receiving some unexpectedly large estimates from a bigger plumbing company. Advocate came out to estimate and gave us a home inspection while they were here. Their estimates were much more in line with what we expected based on our research. They were able to get us scheduled very quickly and did an excellent job while they were here. We had quite a few things to be done, so Zach was at the house for a few days in a row. He was exceptionally friendly and professional, and ensured we were happy with all of the work that they did each day. He was able to help us troubleshoot some more tricky issues which we really appreciated. We really liked how in the loop we were kept throughout the whole process. We 100% recommend Advocate (and Zach) to anyone looking for plumbing work to be done! We will be using them going forward for all of our plumbing needs. EDIT: Adding in that Jeremy (the owner) also came out one of the days to help take on some of the work we needed done. He was also a pleasure to work with!
