"I can't recommend Doty enough.  I know it was hard to work with our extremely limited options for locating the ductwork, but our guy (Jason) was great.  He confirmed locations for everything and our building inspector said it was the best workmanship he'd ever seen.  Despite being very busy right now, Gary shuffled things around to get our finish done in time for our occupancy inspection. They showed up every time they were expected to, on time, and cleaned up when they were done.  When they had trouble getting our control board working with the furnace (manufacturer's issue), they got a replacement and installed it the same day, staying until 7pm to get it done for me.  

Because the system is geothermal, I qualify for a 30% rebate from the federal government on the entire price (via tax refund), which effectively makes the cost ~$23,000.  Oh, and my electric bill is $32/month to heat the entire house (4100 ft2 of conditioned space, including the basement) to 70 degrees; 80 during the two weeks our drywaller was mudding."

"The installers did an excellent job. They encountered an unexpected heating duct when they removed a wall. This caused a delay in the project but they kept me updated on when they could finish the job. It looks great and I am glad that they made sure it was done properly. They thoroughly cleaned up after the finished each time. They were friendly and professional."

"Amazing! Staff person very patient, spent over an hour with me. With the video, he was able to figure out that the condenser fan wasn’t working. And, he suggested that I use a house fan to cool the condenser, so freezer would start to work (It did!!!) while I ordered the fan part and figured out who could install it. Respectful Courteous Professional (called me Sunday morning right at the time I requested) Knowledgeable Patient (he was fine waiting while I got a tool from my neighbor to take some nuts off so he could see into the back) I couldn’t believe the incredible service for only $35! Best bargain I have ever seen on the Internet!"

"My wife and I have lived in our house for almost three years now. We knew from the start we were going to need to replace the master bath/shower. We reached out to multiple companies and finally ended up working with Five Star Bath Solutions. The entire process was pain free. From picking out our tub/shower to installation, our expectations were exceeded. We did have a minor hiccup at the beginning of the process, but the team helped us out. The price defiantly meets the quality of the product. When we remodel our guest baths next year, we will use Five Star Bath Solutions again."

FAQs for water heater service projects in Bath, MI

The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.

Tankless water heaters are more expensive than those with a storage tank, but they come with some impressive benefits that most homeowners find worth the higher investment. Most importantly, they provide unlimited hot water, so you’ll never run out like you would with a storage tank. Tankless heaters are also more efficient, so comparing gallon-for-gallon, you’ll spend less on hot water with a tankless heater. Tankless water heaters are also smaller, require less maintenance, and tend to last longer than storage tank water heaters.

It usually takes a professional water heater installer between two and three hours to remove an existing water heater and install a new tank heater. However, it could take four to five hours if they have to work in a small utility closet or another tight area, like a crawl space. Tankless water heaters have a more complicated installation process, so they will take a bit longer. Additionally, a gas water heater requires a connection to a gas line, and that alone can add about an hour to the installation timeline compared to installing an electric water heater.

It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you’ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don’t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.

In most municipalities, a license is not mandatory for water heater installation or replacement. However, we strongly recommend hiring a licensed plumber or water heater installer to handle the work. Licensed installers are far less likely to make a mistake during the installation, which means paying for the experience decreases your risk of a leak and other issues. You can use our state licensing tool to find out if a contractor you’re considering in your area holds a plumber’s license.
