Traditional tank and tankless water heater installation, repair & replacement for homeowners across Hartford, Tolland & Litchfield Counties.
Water Heater Services
A failing water heater rarely waits for a convenient time to go — cold showers, rusty water, or a leaking tank usually show up without warning. SJT Plumbing installs, repairs, and replaces traditional tank and tankless water heaters for homeowners throughout West Suffield and the surrounding Hartford, Tolland, and Litchfield County communities.
We work with gas, electric, and tankless systems from all major manufacturers, and we'll help you choose the right size and type of unit for your household's hot water demand, your budget, and your home's existing gas, electric, and venting setup.
Every installation is done to code, tested before we leave, and backed by our workmanship guarantee. If your existing water heater just needs a repair — a faulty thermostat, a failed heating element, or a leaking valve — we'll diagnose it and give you an upfront price before starting any work.

Common Questions
Most tank water heater replacements are completed in 2-4 hours. Tankless installations or conversions from tank to tankless can take longer, especially if new gas or venting lines are required.
Tank size depends on your household size and hot water usage; tankless units are sized by flow rate (gallons per minute). We'll evaluate your home and recommend the right size during your free estimate.
Tank water heaters have a lower upfront cost, while tankless units cost more to install but provide continuous hot water and lower operating costs over time. We'll walk you through the tradeoffs for your specific home.
Yes. A leaking or failed water heater can cause water damage quickly, so we offer emergency service for water heater failures throughout our service area.
We recommend flushing a tank water heater annually to remove sediment buildup, which extends its lifespan and keeps it running efficiently.
