Choosing the Right Water Heater
Water heaters are not one size fits all, and choosing the right one can feel confusing. Between different fuel types, efficiency claims, and changing local regulations, it is not always obvious what makes the most sense for your home. Below, we break down the three main water heater options used in the San Francisco Bay Area and explain how each one works. Our team helps you sort through the pros and cons, answer your questions, and recommend the option that fits your home, usage, and long-term plans.
Traditional Gas Tank
Dependable and Familiar
Traditional gas water heaters store hot water in a tank, ready to use anytime. They’re ideal for families who need steady hot water and lower upfront cost.
We handle full installation—removal, setup, and code compliance—with transparent pricing and guaranteed workmanship. Expect quick service, reliable performance, and safe installation every time.
Best for:
-
Homes with moderate to high hot water use
-
Lower upfront cost preference
-
Simpler maintenance and repair
**Note: New regulations will phase out new gas tank water heater installations in the Bay Area starting January 2027. After this date, new installations will be limited to hybrid heat pump and gas tankless systems.**
Hybrid Heat Pump
Ultra-Efficient and Electric
Hybrid heat pump water heaters use electricity and ambient air to heat water. A built-in fan pulls in surrounding air and transfers that heat into the water, making the system far more efficient than standard electric tanks. Hot water is stored in a tank, ready when you need it.
These systems are ideal for homeowners looking to lower energy costs, move away from gas, or take advantage of solar power. Our certified technicians handle placement, electrical requirements, condensate drainage, and code compliance for reliable operation.
Best for
• Energy-conscious homeowners
• Homes with solar or electrification plans
• Moderate to high hot water use
Gas Tankless
Efficient and Modern
Tankless water heaters heat water only when you need it—no storage tank, no wasted energy. They provide endless hot water while reducing energy bills and saving space.
Our certified techs handle sizing, venting, and installation for optimal performance. We’ll make sure your tankless system fits your home and meets all code standards.
Best for:
-
Smaller spaces or modern remodels
-
Energy-conscious homeowners
-
Endless, on-demand hot water
