Some household projects are time-consuming. Installing a new electric hot water heater takes a day with a bit of plumbing and electrical skills. Our guide provides a step-by-step installation plan for fitting a new heater within the home. Keep in mind that there are many newer technologies for hot water heaters, so the new model may not fit into the same location as the existing unit as they tend to be larger in size. Plan the installation first on paper before embarking on its completion. Reading the manufacturer’s literature and following all local building codes are parts of the process.
