We professionally install top-tier tank water heaters from major brands, carefully matching the size of the unit to your household’s specific hot water needs. Our team evaluates your current plumbing setup and makes any required modifications to fit the new system. Installation includes secure venting, setup of the pressure relief valve, and strong water line connections to ensure efficient and safe operation.

Tankless Water Heater Installation

Tankless water heaters give you unlimited hot water and can cut down energy use by up to 30% compared to standard tanks. Our licensed installers are highly experienced in managing tankless water heater installations, including gas line upgrades, venting adjustments, and specialized electrical work. We help you choose the best location for your unit and ensure all parts are installed correctly for long-lasting, energy-saving performance.

Electric, Gas, and Propane Models

We work with all water heater types, depending on your home’s energy setup and your preferred heating method. Our technicians are qualified to install electric units requiring specific amperage and breakers, as well as gas and propane models that need precise gas line sizing and venting. We’ll go over the pros and cons of each type so you can make a well-informed decision based on your home and budget.

Comprehensive System Upgrades

Knight Plumbing can also upgrade your home’s infrastructure if needed to support a new water heater. This may include replacing worn-out water pipes, increasing gas pipe diameter to meet heating demands, or improving your electrical panel to power a high-efficiency system. Our certified professionals perform all upgrades according to building codes, ensuring your setup is fully compatible with your new heater.

Water Heater Replacement

We offer complete water heater replacement services, starting with careful removal of your old unit. Our team disposes of your previous heater following Calgary’s environmental and recycling standards.
