Types of Water Heaters We Install
Every home has unique hot water needs. That’s why we offer a range of options, including traditional gas, tankless, and energy-efficient units.
Traditional Water Heaters
The tried-and-true solution for reliable hot water. If you’re looking for a dependable hot water supply and a budget-friendly price, you can’t go wrong with a traditional gas water heater.
Tankless Water Heaters
Looking to save space and energy while unlocking a never-ending hot water supply? Tankless units heat water as it passes through the system, eliminating standby and unnecessary water loss.
High-Efficiency Water Heaters
Looking for greater efficiency and lower monthly bills? Our high-efficiency units use less energy while giving you the same results as traditional models—a perfect option for homeowners who want to make a smart long-term investment.
The Bluestone Advantage is Beyond a DIY Installation
While a DIY water heater installation might seem tempting, it comes with significant risks to your safety and property. Our professional residential water heater installation service is designed to protect your investment and ensure your system runs flawlessly for years to come.
Safety is Non-Negotiable
Incorrectly handling gas lines, electrical wiring, or pressure relief valves can lead to gas leaks, fire hazards, or flooding. Our licensed Boise plumbers are trained to manage these complex systems safely, protecting your home and family.
Perfect Sizing, Every Time
An undersized unit means cold showers, while an oversized one wastes energy and money. We analyze your household's hot water usage to recommend the perfect size and type of water heater, ensuring you never run out of hot water or overpay on your energy bills.
Seamless, All-in-One Service
We handle it all: disconnecting and responsibly disposing of your old unit, flawlessly installing the new one, and testing everything to ensure perfect operation. We leave your space cleaner than we found it.
Protect Your Manufacturer's Warranty
Most manufacturers' warranties are voided by improper or non-professional installation. Our certified installation protects your warranty, ensuring your investment is covered for its full lifespan.
Understanding Water Heater Installation Costs in Boise
The average cost for professional water heater installation in Boise typically ranges from $950 to $2,500, depending on several key factors. A standard 40-50 gallon traditional tank replacement will be on the lower end, while a new tankless water heater installation can be on the higher end due to more complex plumbing and venting requirements.
Key factors influencing your final cost include:
- Type of Heater: Tankless and high-efficiency models have a higher upfront cost than traditional gas or electric units.
- Size/Capacity: A larger tank or a tankless unit with a higher flow rate will cost more.
- Permit Fees: The City of Boise requires a permit for water heater replacement to ensure safety code compliance. We handle the entire permitting process for you.
- Additional Work: If modifications to your plumbing, gas, or electrical lines are needed, this can affect the total price.
At Bluestone, we provide a transparent, upfront quote with no hidden fees. We'll even beat any licensed contractor's written quote, guaranteed.
