Magnet Plumbing removes your old water heater in Fairwood, WA carefully — draining the tank, disconnecting all utilities safely, and hauling the unit away. We inspect the installation area for any issues that should be addressed before the new unit is installed.
We install the new water heater with all required connections — supply and hot lines, gas or electrical, T&P relief valve and discharge tube, expansion tank where required, and proper venting or condensate drain.

Answers to frequently asked water heater replacement questions from Fairwood homeowners.
Replace your water heater in Fairwood 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.
Most Fairwood jurisdictions in WA require a permit for water heater replacement to ensure the installation is inspected for code compliance. Magnet Plumbing handles the permit process for Fairwood water heater replacements as part of our installation service, so you do not need to navigate the permit office on your own.
Water heater replacement in Fairwood typically costs $800 to $1,800 for a standard tank unit including the heater and installation labor. Tankless water heater installation costs $1,500 to $3,500 depending on the unit and installation complexity. Magnet Plumbing provides free replacement estimates so you can make an informed decision about unit type and budget.
For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Magnet Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your Fairwood home.
