Water Heater Replacement for Tempe Homes
A Tempe customer first met Luke on a water heater replacement, then hired Renova again to remodel the bathroom. In Tempe's older homes, water heaters often sit in tight closets with older gas connectors and venting. South Tempe's 1970s and 1980s homes usually have garage tanks. Each replacement is sized for the household.

How the Job Works
Step 1: Find out what failed
We look at the tank, the venting and the supply lines. You hear whether a repair makes sense before anything else.
Step 2: Size it for your home
Household size, fixtures and fuel type decide the tank size. Bigger is not always better.
Step 3: Remove the old tank
The old heater is drained, disconnected and hauled away, and the space is cleaned for the new one.

Water Heater Replacement in Tempe: Questions
The new heater, plus the parts around it that make it safe: gas or electrical connections, venting, a shutoff valve, the pressure relief line and often a drain pan or expansion tank. Older Tempe homes sometimes need a few of these updated. We explain each item in the estimate.
Timing depends on the job, not the city. As a guide, diagnosis at the tank takes under an hour, and like-for-like tank swap takes a few hours. Every job is scoped upfront, so you know the timeline before work starts, and we set a visit time that works for you in Tempe.
It depends on what failed and how old the tank is. A leaking tank body cannot be fixed. A failed thermostat, element, igniter or relief valve often can. We'll tell you plainly which it is, and whether spending money on repairs makes sense for a tank of that age.
