Highly recommend Trusted Water Systems! We just had a whole-house water softener & filtration system installed, & I am SO glad we chose this company. Jacob, the owner & installer, was amazing to work with from start to finish. He’s knowledgeable, professional, patient, & incredibly easygoing. I had a TON of questions (…& I do mean a ton), both through text & in person, & he took the time to answer every single one without ever making me feel like I was bothering him. He explained our options, provided a detailed quote with equipment specifications, & walked me through how everything worked after installation. I also really appreciated that he told me to just give him a call or text if we had any questions down the road, which shows that he’s committed to his customers beyond just the installation. There was absolutely no sales pressure. We initially considered adding reverse osmosis but decided to hold off, & Jacob sent us a revised quote within minutes, no questions asked. He genuinely wanted us to make the best decision for our home. The installation went smoothly, everything looks fantastic, & the entire experience was so easy. He was also very accommodating with my schedule. If you’re considering a water softener or filtration system, we HIGHLY recommend Jacob at Trusted Water Systems. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience & look forward to working with him again. Thanks so much, Jacob! We appreciate you & your awesome business!

Jacob did an excellent job replacing my leaking tankless water heater. He was quick to respond, honest, professional, and took the time to answer every question I had. He explained everything clearly and made sure the installation was done right. I also got quotes from other companies, and Jacob was able to beat their prices while still providing excellent service and quality work. There’s a reason Trusted Water Systems has so many 5-star reviews. I had a great experience and would absolutely recommend Jacob to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy plumber at a fair price. Five stars well deserved!

Expert installation of my new water softener. Jacob was professional, efficient and personable. His work is like art. It looks amazing. And works perfectly. Trusted Water Systems is a WAY better option than those big advertisers. They make you pay for that advertising. I am extremely satisfied with my decision to go with Trusted. I will recommend to friends and neighbors. Well done Jacob.

Was looking to get a water softener for my house and was quoted a price of $6000 from one company. Thought that was a bit high. I contacted Jacob and he quoted me a price of less than half that. Installation was quick and easy. Will definitely call him again for any future plumbing needs I might have.

I highly recommend Jacob! He came out over a long weekend to check on my water heater and, despite it being a holiday weekend, he didn’t charge me anything extra just for coming out and taking a look. What really stood out to me was how honest and genuine he was. He took the time to explain everything, gave me his honest recommendation, and never made me feel pressured into anything. In this day and age, finding someone who is truly honest and puts the customer first is rare. Jacob did an excellent job installing my new water heater, and I couldn’t be happier with his work. I’ve definitely found my plumber for life! If you’re looking for someone reliable, honest, professional, and trustworthy, I highly recommend Jacob. Thank you, Jacob,

Jacob at Trusted Water Systems was a referral and one we’re grateful for! We needed a second opinion assessment of work recommended by a large plumbing company and a quote for the work. Jacob responded timely (and while on vacation!) and came out within a couple of days (non urgent.) His quote was significantly less and he explained why one of the other company’s recommended services was not actually needed. Hired him do what was needed which was completed at this appointment. Clearly very knowledgeable, provided helpful info about water heaters, and zero upselling! If you have any water heater needs, definitely consider Jacob!

Getting a new water heater can be daunting, especially if you have never had to do this before. I reached out to a few companies and none were as willing to take the time to describe the whole process. Jacob was professional, on time and finished quicker than planned. Highly recommend him for your water heater replacement needs.

We had a fantastic experience replacing the old water heater with Jacob at Trusted Water Systems. He was prompt, and kept us updated on his arrival status. The water heater was neatly installed with updated piping leading to the water heater itself. We are so glad we gave Trusted Water Systems the job and would highly recommend them. The price and the #Warranty were the best!

Our Water Heater Services

Tankless and tank water heaters serviced and installed

Water Heater Repair

Types of water heater repairs, and when to repair instead of replace

Water heaters, both tank and tankless types, can be repaired, and there are several common repairs that can be done to extend their life and improve efficiency. 

Thermostat or heating element replacement on tank water heaters can sometimes be a quick low-cost solution. Descaling, cleaning or replacing filters and repairing electrical sensors sometimes do the trick for Tankless water heaters.

Choosing to repair rather than replace a water heater generally depends on the age of the unit and the cost of the repair. If a tank water heater is less than eight years old or a tankless water heater less than 15 years old, repairing might be cost-effective.

Call or schedule a time for us to visit. We provide free estimates and can advise you on the most cost-effective solution based on the specific details of your situation.

Water Heater Replacement

When you need it, and what to do if yours is leaking

Our water heater services cover all types of water heaters, but typically we encounter tankless or traditional tank water heaters.

Tank water heaters normally last about eight to 12 years. You should consider replacing yours if it is over eight years old, especially if you don’t have a water filtration system. 

Tankless water heaters typically last longer than tank models, with expected life spans of up to 20 years. Regular maintenance can extend this even further.

If your water heater is leaking, turn off the water supply to prevent potential water damage, and then call us immediately. Our water heater services are available 24/7.

We’ve replaced thousands of water heaters, providing the absolute best experience at the most affordable price.

Water Heater Service & Maintenance

What needs maintaining, and how often

Regular maintenance for both tank and tankless water heaters is critical to ensure they operate efficiently and to extend their lifespan, and can save you thousands of dollars in repairs or replacements. 

For tank water heaters, a professional annual water heater service and inspection to check for any signs of wear or issues with the gas line, electrical connections, thermostat, and other components can save you from future headaches and unnecessary costs. This should also include flushing the tank, especially if you don’t have a water filtration system.

Tankless units should be also inspected annually by a professional to check the burner, fans, ignition system, and overall unit condition. Cleaning and/or replacing filters and checking the water inlet filters is also important. Finally, a professional can also inspect for leaks and error codes. Call or schedule a visit with us, and we can provide a free estimate on what needs to be done and the total cost.

Water Heater Installation

Tips if you are buying or already have a water heater

When replacing a water heater, you may choose to make a purchase on your own. Before doing so, consider the size of your home and its hot water usage patterns, taking into account the number of people living there and peak usage times.

Ensure that your home’s electrical system can handle the load of an electric water heater. This may require upgrading your electrical panel or installing dedicated circuits.

If you’re considering installing the water heater yourself please consult a professional first. The installation of a water heater can be complex and potentially hazardous, due to factors like gas lines or high-voltage electricity. Professional installation not only ensures safety and efficiency but also compliance with local codes and manufacturer recommendations. This is important for warranty and insurance purposes.
