Four things decide where your home lands in the $4,250–$6,650 range.
We size the unit by how much hot water your home uses at once: the number of bathrooms, the people in the house and the appliances running together.
A tankless unit burns more gas than a tank while it runs. Some homes need a larger gas line to supply one.
Tankless units vent differently than tanks, so switching usually means new venting.
Garage, closet and outdoor installs each take different work.

1. Assess Your Home. We check your gas line, venting, electrical and where the unit will go.
2. Size the Unit. We match the unit to your home’s hot water use so it keeps up when showers and appliances run at the same time.
3. Approve a Written Price. You get one written price before any work starts. No surprise work.
4. Install, Test and Walk Through. We install to code, test for temperature and safety, and show you how the unit works. We register it with the manufacturer for you.
A tank-to-tankless switch may need these updates to meet code. We check each one during the assessment, so the price you approve covers your home as it actually is.
| Tank | Tankless | |
|---|---|---|
| Installed price (2026) | $2,063–$4,895 | $4,250–$6,650 |
| How it heats | Keeps a full tank hot all day | Heats water only when you use it |
| Hot water supply | Runs out when the tank empties | Continuous, sized to your home |
| Manufacturer warranty | Bradford White: 6 years, optional 4 more | Navien: 15-year heat exchanger, 5-year parts |
A tank is the lower upfront cost. Tankless costs more to install, but it gives you continuous hot water and a much longer heat exchanger warranty. We’ll price both so you can compare.

Luis and his son did exemplary Work installing My two new kitchen sinks. It was so touching watching a father mentor his son in the business. They were complete, with thorough attention to detail. They even checked some of my additional plumbing systems to ensure proper installation. And their prices were much lower than the larger Plumbing company that I use. I plan to now use them for my ongoing plumbing needs.Posted on Google![]()

Luis and Salvador and everybody was great, super professional and knowledgeable. LGE was recommended by a friend so I called them to do some work at a rental property and was pleased with their attention to detail and with the way they treated my tenant, who thought the guys were great. I ended up having them do some work at my primary home and they are my go to plumbers now.Posted on Google![]()

Recently, Luis from LGE Prime Plumbing came out quickly when our kitchen sink pipes were plugged and backing up. I appreciate that Luis cleaned and replaced them. He took pictures of the problems and explained thoroughly what happened and why. He recommended changing a garbage disposal that was rusty and not functioning to capacity either. He also made long term recommendations for us to use. Yes, we would definitely use LGE again and recommend them to friends and neighbors.Posted on Google![]()
