We help you choose the right water heater for your household — the appropriate size, fuel type, and efficiency rating — based on your hot water demand, budget, and the existing infrastructure at your home.

Magnet Plumbing installs your new water heater in Pawtucket, RI to code — making all gas or electrical connections, installing the T&P relief valve and discharge tube, adding an expansion tank if required, and ensuring proper venting for the unit type.

Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from Pawtucket homeowners.
Replace your water heater in Pawtucket 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.
Extend the life of your new water heater in Pawtucket 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. Magnet Plumbing offers annual water heater maintenance service in Pawtucket to keep your unit running efficiently.
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 Pawtucket 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.
Most Pawtucket jurisdictions in RI require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance. Magnet Plumbing handles the permit process for Pawtucket water heater replacements as part of our installation service, so you do not need to navigate the permit office on your own.

"Main water line burst and we had a river in the front yard. They isolated the break, got the water back on within a few hours, and replaced the section cleanly the next day. Excellent emergency response."

"These guys are amazing, very professional, friendly, clean and neat on their job and appearance. I had a clog on my main line at 11pm on a Saturday and they came and got the job done, so now they are my go-to guys. I recommend them to my family so you know they are good once you trust them with your family's plumbing."
