Atlanta Water Heater Repair & Installation

Hot water is such a part of your life that you don’t even notice it’s there and likely don’t think about where it comes from. But when it’s gone, you’ll know right away and act fast to get it back up and running. Water heaters are built to last, but over time they do wear out and they’re a big expense—so you want to choose wisely. We can help you navigate the selection process and find a water heater that takes your usage habits and family size into consideration.

Common Water Heater Problems

  • Failed thermostat or heating element
  • Incorrect water pressure
  • Sediment or hard water mineral deposits
  • Age of the unit
  • Improper installation

Atlanta Water Heater Repairs

A new water heater can present a significant expense, which is why a repair should be explored before a decision is made to replace it. We’ll carefully inspect your water heater to identify any issues before making a recommendation. In some cases, a simple repair can restore hot water back to your home. In other situations, while a repair may be technically possible, the extent of service required, or the age of the unit may make replacing your water heater more sensible. We’re always happy to thoroughly explain your options, and any recommendations, when it comes to water heater repair versus replacement.

“Wow. I am beyond impressed with Fix & Flow! We’ve had the worst time with a heater that was installed incorrectly 3 years ago. We had to replace the heater but it was well worth it. They were responsive, professional, and thorough. I am glad they were recommended to us & we will do the same from this point forward!”

“Excellent service. Anthony was here on time and worked quickly. Installed a water heater and pressure valve. They charge a fair price, with no bait and switch or addon surprises. Cleaned up the work area and the craftsmanship was excellent. Would highly recommend them.”

Atlanta Water Heater Maintenance

Aside from performing water heater installation and making water heater repairs, one key to maximizing the life of your water heater is ensuring that it’s properly maintained. For a conventional water heater, this includes flushing it out at least once a year. This is important because sediment tends to build up within the tank over time, settling on the bottom of the tank. If this sediment isn’t periodically removed, it could rust through the bottom of the tank, leading to premature failure (not to mention potential water damage). You’ll also want to be sure to check the pressure release valve and inspect the anode rods periodically.

Water heater maintenance isn’t just important for conventional water heaters, but tankless water heaters and hybrid heaters too. In addition to our water heater repair and installation services, we’re also happy to schedule an appointment to perform maintenance on it. We service all styles and brands, from tankless water heater repair to conventional tanks to help you maximize the return on this important home investment.

Replacing Your Water Heater

When considering a water heater replacement, it is important to know that you have options. There are three main types of water heaters to choose from, each with their own benefits and downfalls. No matter which style you go with, it should last for 10-15 years.

Gas Water Heater

Tank Water Heater

Tank heaters are a tried and true water heating technology. They’re low maintenance, less expensive to install and offer 10-15 years of reliable service when installed and maintained properly.

Tankless Water Heater

Tankless Water Heater

Tankless water heaters offer a more energy efficient option. You also have the added advantage of never running out of hot water.

Heat Pump Electric Water Heater

Hybrid Heat Pump Water Heater

Under ideal conditions, hybrid water heaters are extremely energy efficient. They use heat pump technology that converts air heat into energy to warm up your water.

How long should my water heater last?

The typical lifespan depends on the type:

  • Tank models: around 8–12 years
  • Tankless water heaters: up to 20 years with proper maintenance
  • Hybrid/heat pump units: approximately 10–15 years

Regular flushing and maintenance, like annual sediment removal, can extend your unit’s life.

Why is it important to flush my water heater annually

Sediment buildup from hard water can lower efficiency, make your heater noisy, or even shorten its lifespan. Flushing your tank once a year prevents these issues and maintains performance.

Tank vs. tankless—what should I choose?

Tank water heaters are more straightforward and less costly upfront but occupy more space and use more energy over time. Tankless models provide hot water on demand, are space-saving, and more energy-efficient—but cost more to install. Tankless units typically last longer too.

What causes my hot water to run out too quickly?

Common culprits include:

  • Undersized tank for household usage
  • Sediment buildup reducing usable capacity
  • Faulty thermostat or heating elements
  • A leaking tank

An inspection can identify the issue and guide whether to repair, flush, or replace your system.

Where can plumbers install a hybrid (heat pump) water heater?

Hybrid units need ambient air between 40–120°F and enough room for airflow (approximately 450–700 cubic feet). Spaces like garages, basements, or utility rooms work best.

How can I determine the age of my water heater?

Check the serial number and manufacturer label—this will usually give installation details or clues about age. If unclear, one of our technicians can decipher it during your inspection.

Are hybrid water heaters really more efficient?

Yes—hybrids use heat pump technology to transfer heat rather than generate it, reducing energy use dramatically. They combine storage tank convenience with significantly lower energy consumption.

What safety features should my water heater have?

A temperature and pressure relief (T&P) valve is required by code to prevent explosions. It must discharge properly—typically to a drain. Additional devices like heat traps or earthquake straps may be required by local Atlanta codes.

Do I need a shut-off valve near my water heater?

Yes—having one allows for quick isolation of the unit during maintenance or emergencies, reducing the risk of flooding or damage.
