As a certified Mass Save partner, Yellow Dog can help you access rebates and 0% interest financing on qualifying high-efficiency water heaters, including heat pump and tankless units.

Most manufacturers recommend annual water heater maintenance, including a tank flush to clear sediment. Regular water tank maintenance keeps your system running efficiently, extends its lifespan, catches small problems before they turn into costly repairs, and keeps your warranty valid.
A good rule of thumb: if a repair costs more than 50% of a new unit and your water heater is more than 10 to 12 years old, replacement is often the smarter investment. Our plumbers will walk you through both hot water heater repair and water heater replacement options and give you an honest recommendation based on your specific unit.
In most cases, yes. We offer same day service for hot water repair and our phones are answered 24/7 by real people. If you have no hot water, call us and we will get a technician out to repair hot water service as fast as possible.
As a full service water heater company, we install and service all major brands, including Bradford White, Rheem, A.O. Smith, and others. Tank or tankless, gas or electric, we can work on it.
Tankless installation is a great option if you want endless hot water, lower energy bills, and a unit that takes up less space. Tankless water heaters last longer than traditional tanks and only heat water when you need it. We will help you decide whether a tankless upgrade makes sense for your home.
