Water Heater Installation
& Replacement
Signs It's Time to Replace
- 10–12 years old or more — the typical service life of a tank water heater
- Water leaking from the tank itself, not just a fitting or valve
- Rusty or discolored hot water from a corroding tank
- Popping and rumbling from heavy sediment buildup
- Running out of hot water because the household has outgrown the tank
Not sure? A water heater repair visit will tell you whether a repair is worth it.
Tank or Tankless?
A tank water heater is the lower up-front cost and a straightforward swap for most homes; 40–50 gallons covers most households, and larger families size up. A tankless water heater heats water on demand, so you don't run out, and it takes up a fraction of the space — at a higher installed cost, and it needs periodic descaling in Utah's hard water. We'll explain the tradeoffs for your home and budget, and our tankless service team keeps them running. For the full picture on sizing, venting and cost, see our tankless water heater installation page.

What Our Water Heater Customers Say
Real reviews from Salt Lake Valley homeowners
The technician was respectful, professional and a good communicator. After performing the water heater flush, he presented some suggestions for a requested addition service and their company’s preventative maintenance plans but was not aggressive or pushy trying to upsell what they had to offer.
Adam and Jackson did an excellent job with my water heater installation. They took the time to answer all my questions and explain things to me. Ashley from the office was also super helpful on coordinating.
Trevor came to maintained our water heater. He took extra time answering all my question and explaining the options to me. Very happy with our experience and will definitely work with Aireo again.

electrical Gas Line or Hard Water Questions?
Switching fuel types or moving the heater often means gas line work, and a tankless unit may need a larger line than a tank does. If scale is shortening the life of your heater, read our guide to hard water in Davis County.
