Phoenician Plumbing removes your old water heater in Metairie, LA carefully — draining the tank, disconnecting all utilities safely, and hauling the unit away. We inspect the installation area for any issues that should be addressed before the new unit is installed.
Our licensed Metairie plumber installs the new water heater with all code-required components — proper supply line connections, gas or electrical hookup, T&P valve and drain tube, expansion tank if required by local code, and correct venting.
We fill the tank, start the unit, check for leaks at all connections, and verify the water reaches the correct temperature. We walk you through the controls and any maintenance the manufacturer recommends.
Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from Metairie homeowners.
Replace your water heater in Metairie when it is over 10 to 12 years old, produces rusty or discolored water indicating internal corrosion, leaks from the tank body, requires frequent repairs, or no longer meets your household hot water demand. A water heater approaching these conditions often fails unexpectedly — replacement before failure avoids an emergency.
Most Metairie jurisdictions in LA require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance. Phoenician Plumbing handles the permit process for Metairie water heater replacements as part of our installation service, so you do not need to navigate the permit office on your own.
Tank water heaters cost less upfront and are simpler to install. Tankless units provide endless hot water on demand and typically have lower operating costs, but cost more initially. For most Metairie families, a quality tank unit in the correct size is the most cost-effective choice. Our plumbers help you compare the total cost of ownership for your specific situation.
Extend the life of your new water heater in Metairie by flushing the tank annually to remove sediment, replacing the anode rod every 3 to 5 years, setting the thermostat to 120°F to reduce mineral buildup and tank stress, and inspecting the T&P valve annually. Phoenician Plumbing offers annual water heater maintenance service in Metairie to keep your unit running efficiently.

"This company is amazing! Called them around 4pm and the next day they were at my house at 8:30am like they said. Helped detect my problem and fix the issue quickly without spending a fortune. They will be my go to plumber from now on."
"I noticed some pooling water in my front yard. Called them and a plumber was here within an hour. Found the leak at the connection of the water main into the house about 4 feet down. Was here about six hours and did a fantastic job. Very much appreciate the prompt response and dedicated service."
