Efficient Water Heater Replacement Services

If your water heater is leaking, no longer delivering reliable hot water, or more than 10–12 years old, replacement may be the most cost-effective solution. At SAV Water Heaters, we specialize in water heater replacement in Los Altos, helping homeowners upgrade to modern, energy-efficient systems that meet both performance expectations and code requirements.

When a water heater begins to fail, the signs are often gradual: longer wait times for hot water, inconsistent temperatures, rising energy bills, or a faint metallic odor. Our technicians assess these issues thoroughly and offer tailored replacement options that factor in your home’s water usage, layout, and energy source — whether gas or electric. Learn more about the water heater replacement process.

We replace:

  • Standard 40, 50, and 75-gallon tank water heaters (gas or electric)
  • Old tankless units with modern high-efficiency models
  • Outdated systems that no longer meet venting or seismic code

Each replacement includes:

  • Proper disconnection and haul-away of the old unit
  • Installation of new expansion tank, gas flex lines, and hot/cold shutoffs
  • Code-compliant venting, strapping, and drainage
  • Complete system testing and startup

Water Heater Repair in Los Altos

Not every issue requires a full replacement. If your water heater is acting up — making noise, producing rusty water, or failing to keep up — our trained technicians will diagnose the issue and recommend the most appropriate fix. Learn more about our repair services.

We carry parts for common brands like Bradford White, Rheem, and AO Smith, and in many cases, we can restore full function the same day. We pride ourselves on honest diagnostics. If the problem is minor and repairable, we’ll fix it — no upsell, no pressure. If we believe a replacement would better serve your long-term comfort and budget, we’ll explain why with full transparency. Our reputation in Los Altos is built on trust, and we protect that trust with every call.

We repair:

  • Faulty thermostats, pilot lights, and gas valves
  • Pressure valve leaks and minor tank-side fittings
  • Sediment-related burner or heating element problems
  • Tankless ignition, descaling, or water flow sensor issues

Tankless & Hybrid System Installations

For homeowners seeking higher efficiency or more space, we install and retrofit modern systems, including:

We also offer conversion services — replacing gas units with hybrid heat pumps — especially in homes moving toward electrification and sustainability goals. All installations are permitted and performed to current code by licensed professionals who know Los Altos regulations inside and out.

Preventative Maintenance to Extend System Life

Regular maintenance not only protects your investment — it extends the life of your system, improves heating performance, and ensures energy efficiency. Our maintenance service includes:

  • Tank flush and sediment removal
  • Anode rod check and corrosion prevention
  • Gas and water line inspections
  • Ventilation and seismic bracing checkups
