Energy-efficient water heaters for Humboldt County homes and businesses
Energy-efficient residential and commercial water heaters, tank and tankless.
Most people think about their water heater twice: the day it is installed and the day it quits. The second one is usually a cold shower or a wet garage floor.
Maples installs and services energy-efficient water heaters for homes and for commercial buildings, from a single tankless unit on the side of a house to a bank of commercial heaters in a mechanical room.

Questions
Water Heaters questions
Tank or tankless?
It depends on the house. Tankless heaters save space and do not run out, but they can need a larger gas line and different venting. A standard tank costs less up front and drops into the same spot. A Maples plumber can look at your gas supply, your venting, and how your household uses hot water, then lay out both options.
Do you work on commercial water heaters?
Yes. Commercial energy-efficient water heaters are a listed Maples service, for restaurants, lodging, medical buildings, and public facilities.
My water heater is leaking right now. What should I do?
Shut off the cold water valve on top of the heater, turn the gas control to off or flip the breaker for an electric unit, and call the shop. Maples runs 24 hour emergency service.
