Write down how you use hot water
Count the showers and appliances that run during the busiest hour. Include any anticipated changes, such as another occupant or bathroom.
Identify what the site can support
Check the existing fuel source and equipment location. Ask about available electrical capacity, clearances, venting, and any work required for a different type of heater.
Compare the complete options
Review capacity, efficiency, installed price, warranty, and service requirements. A useful quote names the model and explains what is included so you can compare it with another proposal.
