Our Expert Water Heater Services

1. Installation & Replacement

Whether you’re upgrading or replacing, we help you select the right unit—tank or tankless—and install it efficiently:

  • Conventional Tank Heaters: We match capacity to your household needs and optimize location and venting.

  • Tankless Units: Upgrade to unlimited hot water and improved energy efficiency with custom gas line or electric setups.

Our certified technicians handle old-unit removal, precise installation, testing and calibration, operation education, and cleanup. 

2. Repair & Troubleshooting

From age-related breakdowns to performance hiccups, our team solves:

  • Noise, leaks, and inconsistent hot water

  • Pilot light, gas valve, or burner issues

  • Pressure relief valve or heating element failures

We serve all water heater types across Indian Trail and the greater Charlotte area. 

3. Maintenance & Tank Flushing

Simple annual maintenance can boost your unit’s lifespan from 15 to 20 years or more. Our regular maintenance program includes:

  • Full tank flush to remove sediment

  • Inspection of valves, anode rods, heating elements, and connections

  • Professional cleaning of burners and pilot assemblies

Hard water causes heavy sediment, especially in Indian Trail, so regular flushing is essential to maintain efficiency and prevent breakdowns. 

Go Tankless — Smarter, Cleaner, and More Reliable

Upgrade to a tankless water heater and benefit from:

  • Endless hot water on demand

  • Longer lifespan—often 20+ years

  • Energy efficiency and space-saving design

  • Modern, WiFi-capable systems suited for savvy homeowners

We offer full services from sizing and custom installation to weekly flushes, leak detection, and emergency line servicing. 

Extend Your Water Heater’s Life — Quick Tips

Apply these pro tips to maximize lifespan and avoid costly repairs:

  1. Flush the tank annually to eliminate sediment buildup.

  2. Clean the burner or heating element every two years.

  3. Maintain safe-pressure operation via relief valves.

  4. Use filters in hard water areas to reduce mineral damage.

  5. Verify thermostat settings (120–140°F) for safety and efficiency.

  6. Schedule yearly professional inspections to catch small issues early.

    When I needed a plumber due to a water issue at my home, Superior was the only company who not only responded with the quickest appointment time but called to let me know that due to a cancellation they were able to come even sooner. I especially appreciated the text message I received prior to the technician arriving, showing me his picture as well as his name. Walker, the technician, was professional, highly knowledgeable, and …Read All Reviews

  • Kristin G.

    I had an emergency plumbing situation in my short-term rental & Superior Plumbing went above and beyond to help me out in a time pinch. The staff was KIND, HONEST, & thorough, without price gouging! I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone!

  • Matt L.
    They were able to respond quickly when our water heater quit working. One of their plumbers came to the house, inspected heater, recommended replacement and explained clearly why he was recommending replacement. He then gave options of different prices and types of heaters. Once we made our choice they completed the work the next day. I would recommend this company without a question.
