💬 Frequently Asked Questions – Water Heater Installations in Carmel
Q: How long does installation take?
A standard water heater installation in Carmel takes 2–3 hours.
Tankless upgrades or homes needing vent/gas modifications may take longer, but we handle all permits and code requirements so you don’t have to.
Q: Do you install customer-bought water heaters?
Yes! If you bought a Rheem, A.O. Smith, Whirlpool, or GE from a store, we’ll install it safely and validate the warranty.
We just make sure it’s properly sized and rated for your home’s gas/electrical setup.
Q: What’s the difference between store-bought and professional-grade heaters?
Retail units are fine, but Bradford White and American Standard models are built for professional distribution.
They use thicker glass linings, better insulation, and commercial-grade components — which means fewer leaks and longer lifespans.
Plus, we manage warranty claims directly, so you’ll never deal with manufacturer red tape.
Q: How often should I replace my water heater?
Most tanks last 8–12 years; tankless systems up to 20 years.
If your unit leaks, makes banging noises, or can’t hold temperature, replacement is usually smarter than repair — and saves on energy costs long-term.
Q: Can I get a bigger warranty?
Absolutely. Standard coverage is 6 years, but we offer 8-, 10-, and 12-year warranty options on select models.
It’s perfect for homeowners who plan to stay in their Carmel home long-term.
Q: Do you handle all permits?
Yes. ExpertPipe Indy is fully licensed and handles all Carmel City plumbing permits and inspections.
You’ll get a documented, code-compliant installation every time.
Q: Do you serve the surrounding areas too?
Definitely. We also cover Westfield, Zionsville, Fishers, Noblesville, and Meridian Hills — anywhere within 25 miles of Carmel.
