What neighbors say about their water heater installs.
“Brandenburg plumbing did a fantastic job with a water heater repair and replacement. They were easy to schedule, showed up when they said they would, and were very thorough. I wouldn’t hesitate to call them when I need their help.”
“We had 2 hot water heaters replaced. The entire experience was seamless. The guys were professional and great to work with. They were efficient, as well. Will definitely use Brandenburg again for future plumbing needs.”
“…There was no upselling nonsense, just old fashioned customer service; Brendan W. explained our options thoroughly and walked us through every step of the process. We are so grateful for Brandenburg Plumbing, Heating, & Air.”
A smarter way to make hot water
Heat from the air.
Hot water for your home.
Like an air conditioner working in reverse, a hybrid moves existing heat into your water. Here’s how.
Simplified illustration. Air and drinking water stay separate.
More than efficient hot water
Comfort you can control.
Protection built in.

Your water heater.
Detect. Shut off.
Let you know.
LeakSense detects water around the tank. LeakGuard closes the incoming water supply to help limit damage, with an alert through EcoNet.
- LeakSense: built-in leak detection.
- LeakGuard: automatic water shutoff.
- EcoNet: notifications to help you respond.
Helps limit water loss; it does not prevent every type of leak. Manufacturer conditions apply.
Backup for busy mornings
Electric elements help when hot-water demand rises. Using them more often can reduce energy savings.

How does a heat pump water heater work?
It moves heat from the surrounding air into your water instead of relying only on electric heating elements, like an air conditioner working in reverse. Backup electric elements help during periods of high demand. Rheem calls these hybrid water heaters.
How much will I actually save?
ENERGY STAR estimates about $410 a year in energy savings for a three-person household replacing a standard electric water heater, at an assumed electricity rate of $0.146/kWh. It is a general planning benchmark, not a measured comparison of these two specific models, a local average or a guarantee. Your usage, electricity rate, room conditions and operating mode affect actual savings.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the size and your setup. Your technician checks the space, drain and access, then gives you a written price, and you approve it before any work begins. Ten-year financing is available, subject to credit approval.
What could add to my price?
Some setups need extras: a duct package for closets and small rooms, a condensate pump when there is no drain nearby, attic or upstairs access, or an expansion tank. Your technician checks your setup and includes anything needed in your written price.
What if I have a gas or propane water heater?
A heat pump water heater needs a 240-volt, 30-amp circuit at the tank, and we do not do electrical work. If there is already a 240-volt outlet or circuit within a few feet of your water heater, we can convert it. If not, we basically cannot do the job until an electrician adds one.
When can you install it?
Usually the next weekday. Pick any weekday online and we arrive between 9am and 12pm. Your technician checks the setup and confirms the final written price before starting.
What is included?
The Rheem ProTerra with LeakGuard, standard replacement labor, a new drain pan, haul-away of the old heater, and startup with a walkthrough of the app. The tank and parts carry Rheem’s 10-year limited warranty, and our lifetime labor guarantee covers defects in our workmanship.
Will it make the room cooler or noisier?
The heat pump releases cooler, drier air and has a fan and compressor you may hear. That is why it suits garages and larger rooms, and why closets and small rooms get intake and exhaust ducts.
Are rebates included in the price?
No. Your price does not subtract any tax credit, utility rebate or future energy savings. Programs vary by address, utility and model; we can help you check what is available.
