Get matched with top water heater pros in Blanchard, OK

It’s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:

• Electric: $600–3,500

• Gas: $700–$2,700

• Propane: $700–$2,500

• High efficiency: $1,500–$3,000

• Indirect: $1,200–$3,500

• Hybrid heat pump: $1,200–$3,500

The time it takes to replace a water heater depends on the complexity of the job. Expect your contractor to spend:

• One to three hours on a standard tank-style water heater replacement

• Two to three hours on a tankless water heater replacement

• Four to six hours replacing a tank-style water heater with a tankless water heater

• One hour for each additional parallel or point-of-use water heater

Your project will take longer if you’re switching fuel sources, upgrading to tankless, or relocating your water heater.

Examples include gas stoves, ovens, and water heaters. Confirm with your provider for specific items.

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.
