A project that you want to make sure you all know is that a gas water heater is installing itself. There is a lot of knowledge that goes into doing this job properly so that you do not injure yourself or others, cause costly losses or get into a legal problem in the future.
Here are some reasons why you might want to reconsider installing a gas water heater yourself: 1. Installing a Gas Water Heater Yourself Is a Safety Issue If you’re planning on installing a gas water heater yourself, you should know that there’s a significant safety risk in doing so. Improper installation can lead to serious injury. If the temperature of the tank is off or if the pressure relief is unable to function due to improper installation, an explosion can occur.
2. You Likely Don’t Possess the Skills and Knowledge of a Trained Professional Licensed plumbers have undergone training and clocked in years of experience when it comes to installing water heaters. They understand the differences in installing a gas vs. an electric heater or a tank vs. a tankless heater. Their skills and knowledge include an understanding of building codes, state regulations, electrical issues, the surrounding carpentry, and much more.
3. The Water Heater Power and Gas Shutoffs Aren’t Visible When installing a water heater that runs on gas or electricity, no heat can is applied until the heater is fully installed and filled with water. To make sure the power stays off you need to be able to see the shutoff switch clearly while installing the heater.
