in Metro Detroit
Heaney Plumbing & Heating installs standard tank and tankless water heaters for homes and businesses throughout Metro Detroit.

Choose the Right Water Heater for Your Home or Business
Whether you’re replacing an aging water heater, upgrading to tankless, or installing equipment for a new space, choosing the right system starts with understanding your hot water needs.
Heaney’s plumbing team considers your household size or business usage, available space, fuel source, and existing connections. We explain your options and the installation requirements so you can make an informed decision that fits your property and budget.
Serving Southeast Michigan since 1969, Heaney Plumbing & Heating brings decades of experience to residential and commercial water heater installations.
Standard Tank Water Heater Installation
Standard tank water heaters store heated water for use throughout your home or business. They are a practical option for many properties, with gas and electric models available to suit different installation needs.
Heaney installs replacement and new tank water heaters, helping you select an appropriate capacity for your daily demand. Our team evaluates the installation space and existing connections, explains any necessary changes, and checks the new unit’s operation after installation.
From showers and laundry to everyday business needs, we help you choose a system designed to keep up.
Tankless Water Heater Installation
Tankless water heaters heat water as it flows through the unit rather than storing it in a tank. Their compact design can free up space, and a properly sized system can provide ongoing hot water within its flow capacity.
Heaney installs tankless water heaters for residential and commercial properties and helps customers evaluate whether converting from a standard tank makes sense.
We consider how many fixtures may need hot water at the same time, along with the property’s plumbing, fuel or electrical supply, and venting requirements. You’ll understand the recommended equipment and any changes needed before installation begins.
Standard Tank or Tankless: Which Is Right for You?
The best water heater depends on how your property uses hot water and what the installation requires.
- Standard tank systems: Store a set amount of hot water and may offer a simpler replacement when existing connections are compatible.
- Tankless systems: Heat water on demand, take up less space, and require careful sizing for simultaneous hot water use.
- Residential installations: Account for household routines, bathrooms, laundry, and other hot water needs.
- Commercial installations: Account for peak demand, operating hours, and the equipment your business uses.
Heaney can walk you through both options, including equipment costs and installation considerations.
What to Expect During Installation
Our team begins by reviewing your property and recommending suitable equipment. Before work starts, we explain the installation scope and any required changes to connections or the surrounding setup.
Installation includes placing and connecting the new equipment, checking for leaks, verifying operation, and reviewing basic use and maintenance with you. For replacements, we’ll also explain how removal of the existing unit will be handled.
Installation Timeline & Metro Detroit Service Area
Many straightforward standard tank replacements can be completed in one visit once the equipment is available and the site is ready. Tankless conversions and installations requiring additional plumbing, electrical, or venting work may take longer. We’ll discuss the expected schedule after evaluating your property.

Water Heater FAQs
How do I know if my water heater needs to be repaired or replaced?
Common signs that something is wrong include inconsistent water temperature, discolored or rusty water, unusual popping or rumbling noises, or visible corrosion around the tank. A Heaney technician will inspect the unit and give you an honest recommendation — repair is often the right call for newer units, while an aging or heavily corroded heater may be better replaced for long-term reliability.Do you work on both tank and tankless water heaters?

Furnace upkeep and maintenance. Was hearing a bomb sound and one other company couldn’t figure out the problem. They stayed working the furnace until they heard the sound I was hearing at least 5 times a day and resolved the issue. Happy!
