Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from South Coventry homeowners.
Replace your water heater in South Coventry when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.
For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Magnet Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your South Coventry home.
Most South Coventry jurisdictions in CT require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance. Magnet Plumbing handles the permit process for South Coventry water heater replacements as part of our installation service, so you do not need to navigate the permit office on your own.
Water heater replacement in South Coventry typically costs $800 to $1,800 for a standard tank unit including the heater and installation labor.

Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"We noticed our water bill doubling month over month and could not find anything visible. These guys came out with the leak detection equipment and located a slab leak under the living room in about thirty minutes. The repair was minimally invasive — small access cut, patched afterward, and the bill is back to normal. Really impressed with the professionalism."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
"Fast response, fair price, and they cleared a stubborn bathroom sink clog I had been fighting for a week. Will definitely call again."
