- Capacity and efficiency level
- Venting changes or a chimney liner for gas units
- Gas line upsizing or a new electrical circuit

Before you hire in Livonia
Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes
The typical home in Livonia was built around 1964. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.
Older plumbing and sewer lines
41% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.
Permits: check with the Livonia building department before work starts.

Water Heater Services in Livonia: FAQ
Lifespan depends on the unit, water quality and maintenance such as flushing sediment. Rust, leaks, rumbling and frequent repairs are signs a tank is near the end.
Yes. A plumbing permit is needed, and gas water heaters also need a mechanical permit.
Tankless units deliver continuous hot water and save space, but often need a bigger gas line and new venting. Compare the full installed scope, not just the unit.
