Frequently Asked Questions

Water heater prices vary depending on the type (tank or tankless), size, and energy efficiency. Mainstream offers a range of high-quality options and will help you find the right fit for your home and budget with upfront, honest pricing.

The cost of replacement includes the unit itself and professional installation. Factors like system type, capacity, and any necessary upgrades can affect the total. Call Mainstream for a personalized estimate—we make the process simple and transparent.

This could mean your water heater is aging, the tank has sediment buildup, or there’s an issue with a heating element. Mainstream can inspect your system and recommend repair or replacement to restore reliable hot water.

No—water under your heater is often a sign of a leak, which could lead to serious damage if ignored. Contact Mainstream right away for a professional diagnosis and fast repairs to prevent further issues.

Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Water Heater

Not sure if it’s time for a new unit? Here are the most common signs that your water heater is due for replacement:

  • Rust-colored water coming from your taps

  • Strange popping or rumbling sounds

  • Leaks or pooling water around the unit

  • Inconsistent or insufficient hot water

  • A system that’s more than 10–15 years old

If you’re noticing any of these symptoms, it’s best to call in the experts. Our licensed plumbers can quickly diagnose the issue and recommend whether water heater repair or full water heater replacement is the better long-term solution.

Traditional vs. Tankless Water Heaters

Every home is different—and so are your hot water needs. That’s why we install both traditional tank water heaters and energy-efficient tankless systems. During your in-home consultation, we’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each option, from installation cost to energy savings and performance.
