At Dapper, your choice is our pleasure. If you’re considering a new water heater installation, be it a like-for-like replacement or a total upgrade, we’ve got so many options to offer you! Check them out below:
Classic Water Heaters
The traditional choice, a tank-style water heater can store a high volume of hot water, which it keeps hot & ready by using either gas or electricity.
Pros of a tank-style water heater:
- Cost-effective at both purchase and installation
- Generous supply of hot water
- Suitable for both residential and commercial use
Cons of a replacement tank heater:
- Less energy-efficient than tankless models
- Occupies more space
- Without proper maintenance, risk of bursts/leaks
Instant Water Heaters
Tankless water heaters, also called instant water heaters, operate on-demand. Instead of storing a reserve of hot water, they rapidly heat and dispense new hot water only when you need it.
Pros of replacing your tank with a tankless:
- Superior energy efficiency compared to tank-style heaters
- Space-saving design
- Offers an endless supply of hot water
Cons of tankless water heaters:
- Higher upfront costs for both purchase and installation
- May not suit homes with high hot water demands
- Repairs can be more complex
Electric Water Heaters
Electric water heaters, powered by electricity rather than natural gas, are ideal for use in homes where gas-powered alternatives are not feasible. They tend to use tanks, but do not store as much water at once as a classic tank-style (standard gas) water heater.
Pros:
- Easy installation, versatile configuration
- Suitable for areas where gas is not available or practical
- Efficient insulation for reduced standby heat loss
Cons:
- Higher operational costs compared to gas-powered alternatives
- May require a dedicated circuit and adequate electrical capacity
LP Gas Water Heaters
Gas water heaters are a popular choice due to their cost-effectiveness and efficiency. They come in tank-style AND tankless varieties.
Pros:
- Generally more cost-effective to operate than electric water heaters
- Heats water faster than electric models
- Suitable for areas with a consistent gas supply (natural gas or propane)
Cons:
- Higher upfront costs compared to electric models
- Requires proper venting and gas line installation
- Slightly energy-inefficient, if only in comparison to electric models
Know the Signs: When is a new water heater necessary?
Recognizing the right time to replace your water heater is crucial to ensure an uninterrupted hot water supply and prevent potential damage to the appliance itself, as well as the space around it.
Here are signs indicating you may need a replacement:
Age of the Water Heater: Water heaters typically last 10-15 years. If your unit is approaching or surpassing this age, it’s advisable to consider a replacement even if it’s currently functioning.
Inadequate Hot Water: If you’re continually running out of hot water, your water heater may be undersized for your needs or nearing the end of its life.
Unusual Noises: Popping, crackling, or rumbling sounds may indicate sediment buildup or an aging water heater nearing the end of its serviceable life.
Leaks or Rust: Visible signs of leaks, rust, or corrosion on your water heater could mean it’s time for a replacement to prevent further damage.
High Operational Costs: A significant increase in your energy bills without any other major changes could be a sign that your water heater is no longer energy-efficient.
Dapper Plumbing Tech Tip
“Some early warning signs your water heater is about to give up the ghost”
Hearing your water heater rumble can mean that there is a buildup of sediment on the bottom of the heater. This will cause extra wear on the tank, increased energy usage, and in some cases can be dangerous. If you hear your water heater snapping, crackling, popping, or rumbling, call Dapper Plumbing today.
That tube is likely attached to the water heater relief valve. The relief valve discharges when the pressure or temp gets too high in the water heater tank. Although they do sometimes just fail, a drippy relief valve is often a symptom of underlying issues.
A decrease in the capacity of a tank-style gas or electric water heater can be a sign of failure.

Dapper Plumbing Tech Tip
“There are many contributing factors to choosing the right size and type of water heater for your family. These factors along with other technical requirements and limiting factors of the existing plumbing system will ultimately determine the right heater for you and your home and the investment. Below are some common considerations.”
Having a properly sized water heater for your home and family means everyone can get a comfortable shower without spending tons of money every year heating water you don’t need to have on hand. The most common sizes of gas and electric tank-style heaters are 40, 50, and 75 gallons. Dapper Plumbing helps homeowners in Darrington, Silvana, and La Conner, choose the right size replacement water heater for their home, their family, and their budget every day. Call 360-588-2227 for a water heater replacement appointment today.
All water heaters, be them gas, electric or tankless, will someday leak. If your water heater is located in a finished basement, closet, or any other area subject to damage when the hot water tank starts leaking, it makes sense to consider a flood protection package for your new heater. Don’t feel like you have to invest a ton of money to protect your home from the damage a leaking water heater can cause. Dapper has water heater flood protection packages suitable for all budgets.

Part of our annual inspection is full out maintenance of your water heater.

Back in the olden days, brand mattered. A lot. And in some ways, it still does, but in a different way. The truth is, everyone who makes water heaters today makes a darn good heater because to compete in today’s competitive market, you’ve got to be good! We have found that the user experience of a particular brand rarely is influenced by the actual water heater but is heavily influenced by who furnishes it and how it’s installed. Want to have the best user experience possible with a new water heater? Trust your water heater replacement to Dapper Plumbing.
Great question! But it’s not a simple answer. In most cases, the only thing different about a water heater with a 12-year warranty and a 6-year warranty is the cost and a sticker. We know, it doesn’t make sense, but it’s the truth. The same tank is used in both heaters. This doesn’t mean that a 12-year heater isn’t for you. If you plan to be in your home for many years, then maybe a water heater with a longer warranty makes the most sense. But if you plan to move in the short term, then maybe a standard warranty of 6 years is the best bet. We are used to helping people just like you determine how to choose the right water heater for you, your home, and your budget.
