What Longview homeowners want to know about water heater replacement — answered by our licensed plumbers.
Replace your water heater in Longview 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.
For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Magnet Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your Longview home.
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 Longview 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.
Standard tank water heater replacement in Longview typically takes 2 to 3 hours including disconnection, removal, installation, and testing. Tankless water heater installation may take 3 to 5 hours depending on the venting and gas or electrical work required. Magnet Plumbing completes most water heater replacements in Longview in a single visit with same-day or next-day scheduling.

"Replaced our kitchen faucet with an upgraded pull-down model. Clean install, no mess. Happy customer."
"Smelled gas in the basement late at night and called the emergency line. A plumber was dispatched within the hour, located the leak at a corroded fitting on the water heater gas line, and repaired it on the spot. They even came back the next day to re-verify with the gas detector. Truly appreciated the care taken."
"We had a slab leak that nobody else could pinpoint. The Magnet team used proper leak detection equipment and found it under the kitchen in about thirty minutes. The repair was clean, no extra damage to the flooring, and the pricing was honest. Highly recommend."
