Size and Position Advice
We advise on a size that matches how much hot water your household or business really uses, and on a position that suits the pipework and servicing.
Water Heater Installation in Dubai
A new water heater sized for your home and connected safely
In Brief
Water heater installation is fitting a new storage or instant water heater, or replacing an old one, with the water supply, a pressure relief valve and the electrical connection done safely. We help choose a size that matches your hot water demand, remove the old unit and test the new one before we leave.
A water heater works hard every day, so it is worth getting the size, position and connections right at the start. A unit that is too small runs out of hot water; one that is too large wastes energy keeping water hot. The position matters too: the closer it sits to the taps that use it most, the less water you waste waiting for it to run hot, and the unit has to be somewhere it can be reached for servicing and where any leak will do little harm.
We confirm the size, position and electrical supply before we quote, so the price reflects the real job. Then we disconnect and remove the old unit, fit the new one, connect the water supply and the pressure relief valve with a drain, connect power through a suitable isolator, and test everything for leaks and heating. Electrical and gas connections are checked as part of every job, as on our main water heater page. If your old unit has failed, see water heater repair to check whether repair is the better choice first.

What We Do
What Water Heater Installation Covers
Removing the Old Unit
The old heater is drained, disconnected and removed, and disposed of responsibly as part of the job.
Plumbing Connections
The cold supply and hot outlet are connected with suitable fittings and isolating valves so the unit can be shut off for servicing.
Pressure Relief Valve and Drain
A pressure relief valve is fitted with a drain pipe routed to a safe place, and we test that it operates.
Electrical Connection
Power is connected through a suitable isolator, with the supply isolated before any connection is made and the earth connection checked.
Testing Before Handover
We fill the unit, check for leaks, confirm it heats, set the temperature and explain how to use it.

Good to Know
What Affects Time and Cost
Every property is different, so we confirm the price before any work starts. These are the things that most often change the time and cost.
- The type and capacity of the unit
- Whether the old unit's position, pipework and supply can be reused
- Whether a new circuit, isolator or larger breaker is needed
- How accessible the location is, for example in a ceiling void or a tight cupboard
- Whether the unit is being moved to a new position or replaced where it stood
