Water Heater Installation & Replacement in NYC

Genesis installs and replaces tank, indirect, and tankless water heaters for homes and buildings in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens. We look at the demand, the equipment, and the space it has to fit before recommending a replacement.

The equipment

The right setup for the building.

A replacement should match how the property uses hot water and how the system is laid out. We work with these common options:

Tank water heaters

Gas and electric storage water heaters for homes and buildings. Replacement planning covers capacity, recovery, available space, and the existing connections.

Indirect water heaters

Storage tanks heated by a boiler. We look at the boiler, hot-water demand, piping arrangement, controls, and access before choosing a replacement.

Tankless & combination systems

On-demand and combination equipment where the building and its hot-water use make sense for it. The gas supply, venting, water quality, and service access all matter.

Before installation

What we check on site.

A straightforward tank swap and a full change of system call for different work. We review the existing installation and talk through the practical options.

  • Hot-water demand and recovery
  • Tank size and equipment footprint
  • Fuel, electrical, and venting requirements
  • Boiler and indirect-tank connections
  • Isolation valves, recirculation, and mixing where needed
  • Drainage and room for future service

Replacing a leaking tank in a recessed pit.

The existing 80-gallon indirect tank was leaking. Genesis replaced it in the mechanical room's recessed pit and connected the new tank into the building's hot-water system. Swipe to see the old tank and the replacement.
