Speak To A Water Heater Professional 24/7/365 At 833-900-8006
Though Water Heaters Only, Inc. is not as old as the City of Orange, our company has been serving this beautiful city with 5 star water heater replacement service since 1968.
In our 57 years of installing water heaters, our technicians have accumulated a lot of knowledge about all the different types of water heaters that are out on the market. Water heaters are all we do, so when you are having a problem with your water heater you can rest easy knowing that our technicians have the know-how to fix the problem quickly and efficiently.
One of the most common types of water heaters we install is the 40 gallon gas atmospheric vent water heater. This is because the average household size is 2-3 people and that is an optimal number of people for a standard 40 gallon gas water heater.
Although there is no one size fits all solution for sizing a water heater, we recommend replacing the unit with the same size. If you are looking to upgrade to a larger size tank, it is best to have a licensed water heater technician come out to your home and help determine what size water heater is best for you. For a general idea of how we size a water heater for a home is by using a table just like the one below.
| Number of Bathrooms | 1 – 1.5 | 2 – 2.5 | 3 – 3.5 | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Bedrooms | 1 | 2 | 3 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| First Hour Rating | 38 | 49 | 49 | 49 | 62 | 62 | 74 | 62 | 74 | 74 | 74 |
The table above is made by IAMPO and is in chapter 5 of the UPC
Here is a table explaining how we size a home for a water heater. The first-hour rating is a number that describes how much water can be heated within the first hour of the thermostat being turned on.

Bradford White is our preferred brand of tank water heater and has been for quite some time. This is because they are an industry leader in manufacturing plumbers grade water heaters. What that means is that all the water heaters they make are higher quality than the ones you would see in the big box hardware stores. They did this by replacing the plastic parts with more metal parts to make them more durable. Plus Bradford White water heaters have one of the strongest warranties in the industry making them an easy choice to be our preferred water heater brand.

When our technician arrives at your home, you will find that the technician is punctual and ready to work; plus they are Covid-19 aware.

This way, our tech does not have to walk through your home to get to the water heater. Another way we are minimizing contact is by offering contactless payment as well as financing. To learn about other steps we are taking to ensure your safety and that of your family.
We are excited to get the chance to work on your water heater and get you back into hot water!
