We offer a full range of water heater services to make sure you always have the hot water you need.

Our Services Include:

Water Heater Installation

When your old water heater is not working or you want a new, energy-saving model, we can help. Our certified experts install both traditional tank-based water heaters and modern tankless water heaters. 

Water Heater Repair

If you are experiencing problems with your water heater, our experienced technicians are ready to help. We quickly determine what is wrong and fix the issue so that you do not have to live without hot water. Whether your unit is leaking, making strange noises, or simply not heating properly, we are here to get it back in shape.

Water Heater Maintenance

Just like your car, a water heater needs regular check-ups. Our maintenance service includes flushing the water heater. This regular care can extend the life of your water heater and help it run more efficiently.

Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless water heaters are an excellent option that heats water only when you need it. This means you save energy and never run out of hot water. These space saving units make them a great option for smaller homes or businesses. We can install and repair these modern units with the same careful attention to safety and detail.

Traditional vs. Tankless Water Heaters: Which Is Right for You?

At Griggs Plumbing, we understand that plumbing issues can vary from minor challenges to major emergencies. Our skilled team specializes in a variety of services tailored to meet every need, including:

Traditional Water Heaters

  • Proven Reliability:
    Traditional water heaters have been around for many years. They are a tried and true solution that many families and businesses trust.
  • Lower Upfront Cost:
    These water heaters usually cost less when you first buy and install them. 
  • Simple Installation:
    The design of traditional water heaters is straightforward, which means they are often easier and faster to install. 

Tankless Water Heaters

  • Energy Efficiency:
    Tankless water heaters only heat water when you use it. This on-demand method means you do not waste energy heating a full tank of water all the time.
  • Space Saving:
    Because they are much smaller than traditional water heaters, tankless models fit easily into tight spaces. This makes them perfect for smaller homes or apartments.
  • Endless Hot Water:
    With a tankless system, you never have to worry about running out of hot water. Since the water heats as it flows, you can enjoy a steady supply even during busy mornings or in large households.
Hot water heater types

Both options have their own benefits. The best choice for you depends on your needs, the space you have available, and your long-term goals for energy use. Our team at Griggs Plumbing are here to help you decide which type of water heater will work best in your home or business.
