When shopping for a new water heater, cost depends on several factors:
Type of water heater (traditional or tankless)
Size and capacity
Labor and installation fees
Additional plumbing upgrades
Warranty and long-term maintenance
Let’s take a look at the actual numbers.
Traditional Water Heater Cost, What’s Included?
A traditional water heater is the most common choice for Tulsa homeowners. These are tank-style systems that store and heat water in a large reservoir, usually 40 to 50 gallons.
At Spot On Plumbing, the traditional water heater cost is:
💲 $2,800
✅ Includes a 6-year warranty
✅ Professional installation
✅ Removal and disposal of old unit
✅ All necessary plumbing hookups and code compliance
This price includes the peace of mind that comes from working with licensed and certified plumbers in Tulsa, plus our 2-year labor warranty. We stand behind our work and ensure your new heater is installed right the first time.
Tankless Water Heater Cost, The Long-Term Upgrade
More Tulsa homeowners are upgrading to tankless systems for energy efficiency and endless hot water. A tankless water heater heats water on demand, meaning there’s no storage tank and no standby heat loss.
At Spot On Plumbing, the tankless water heater cost is:
💲 $6,000
✅ Includes a 15-year warranty
✅ Professional installation
✅ All venting, gas line upgrades, and permits as needed
✅ System testing and homeowner education
While the upfront cost is higher than a traditional unit, tankless heaters often last longer and can lower your monthly utility bills. Plus, the extended 15-year warranty makes them a smart long-term investment.
