Electric Water Heater Installation Service Card

Reliable Electric Water Heater Installation for Your Home

Cowtown Water Heaters provides professional electric water heater installation in Dallas / Fort Worth, TX. We provide services such as tank replacement and energy-efficient upgrades. In each case, we ensure your new water heater meets local code requirements and withstands North Texas water conditions.

Most electric water heaters last 10 to 15 years before they need replacement. Properties in TX dealing with hard water, common throughout the DFW region, sometimes see shorter lifespans due to sediment buildup on heating elements.

One example would be installing a 50-gallon Rheem unit in a 1980s ranch home after the original tank starts leaking from the bottom drain valve into the garage. Homeowners might notice rust-colored water in the bathtub, a telltale sign the tank has corroded through.

Signs It’s Time for a New Electric Water Heater

Don’t know whether you need a new electric water heater? Be on the lookout for these signs:

  • Age: If your unit is over 12 years old and showing any issues, replacement usually makes more sense than repair
  • Rusty Water: Brown or reddish water from hot taps means the tank is corroding from the inside
  • Leaking: Water pooling around the base or dripping from connections indicates tank failure
  • Inconsistent Temperature: Water goes cold mid-shower or never gets hot enough, even with the thermostat turned up
  • Strange Noises: Rumbling or popping sounds mean sediment has built up and hardened on the heating elements, prevalent in areas with mineral-heavy water
  • Rising Energy Bills: An inefficient water heater works harder and costs more to run each month

Electric Water Heater Installation Process

The installation process takes about three to four hours for a standard replacement.

First, we turn off the power at the breaker and drain the old tank before disconnecting the electrical wiring and water lines.

Next, we mount the new tank on a drain pan and connect the cold-water inlet and hot-water outlet. After that, we wire the electrical connections in accordance with local code and test the pressure relief valve.

One often overlooked detail is checking the condition of the shutoff valves. If they’re corroded or haven’t been turned in years, we replace them to ensure they’ll close properly in an emergency.
