What Lake Tapps homeowners want to know about water heater replacement — answered by our licensed plumbers.
Replace your water heater in Lake Tapps when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.
For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Phoenician Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your Lake Tapps home.
Most Lake Tapps jurisdictions in WA require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance.

Standard tank water heater replacement in Lake Tapps typically takes 2 to 3 hours including disconnection, removal, installation, and testing.

"As a property manager this is my go-to plumber. I get quick response. They never rush me. Thorough, on-time, great with my tenants and clients. Reliable, nice and does a great job at a fair price."
"Sewer line was backing up into my basement drain. They ran a camera and found tree roots 40 feet in. Hydro-jetted it clean and it has been flowing perfectly for months. Thorough diagnosis saved me a costly replacement."
"Had multiple slow drains throughout the house. They ran a snake through each one and cleared everything in a couple of hours. Also diagnosed a venting issue contributing to the problem. Very thorough."
