How long does a water heater installation take in Waco?
How long do water heaters last in Central Texas?
Tank water heaters typically last 10–12 years; tankless units 15–20 years. Hard water in some Waco neighborhoods can shorten lifespan by 1–3 years, which is why we recommend annual flushing.
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
If your unit is 8+ years old and the repair cost exceeds 40–50% of replacement, replacement usually makes financial sense. CTPS provides an honest assessment with no upsell pressure — we will quote both options.
Are tankless water heaters worth it in Texas?
For most Central Texas homes, yes. Tankless units never run out of hot water, last longer than tank heaters, qualify for ENERGY STAR rebates, and pay back the higher install cost in 5–10 years through lower operating costs.
Does CTPS install Rinnai and Navien tankless brands?
Yes. We are factory-trained on Rinnai (RU and V series) and Navien (NPE series) and stock the most common models. We also install Rheem, Bosch, and A.O. Smith tankless systems.
Do you offer water heater financing?
Yes. We partner with financing providers offering 0% promotional rates for 12–18 months on qualified installs. Federal tax credits up to $2,000 may apply on ENERGY STAR tankless units.
