Before a homeowner hauls a unit home, our team can review the existing setup, confirm the likely installation requirements and identify issues such as venting, chimney-liner, power-vent, gas, electrical, access or jurisdiction-specific work.
Quick answer
The safest sequence is equipment review first, purchase second, installation third. That reduces the chance of buying a heater that does not match the fuel, venting, capacity, electrical service, available space or local installation requirements.
A better handoff
Three clear photos give us the equipment, label and vent or connection details.
We review size, fuel, venting, power, access and likely scope before the customer commits.
Permits, inspections and code-related work vary by address and approved project scope.
Once the scope and equipment are approved, we confirm the earliest practical installation window.
For referral partners
Plumbing supply houses, property managers, home inspectors, real-estate professionals and contractors can refer a customer without having to become the installer.
Send the setup before purchase or installation and let the team confirm the likely path.
Equipment experience
A. O. Smith is the line we stock and install most. We also work on the leading tank, tankless and hybrid systems already found in DMV homes.
