Big drivers
Fuel, type, and venting.
A gas-to-gas tank swap in the same spot sits at the low end. A fuel change adds a gas line or a new circuit. A tankless water heater adds a larger gas line, a new vent, and often a condensate drain.[1]
Power vent tanks add a blower and an outlet. Heat pump units cost more up front but use less energy, and ENERGY STAR models may qualify for credits.[2][3]
Smaller drivers
Code items and access.
Utah requires earthquake straps on water heaters.[4] An expansion tank, a pan, and relief valve piping may be added. Each is a line on the quote.
Access counts too. A tank in an attic, a tight closet, or down narrow stairs takes more time. Hard water matters long term. Weber Basin's 10 to 18 grains per gallon is why a softener tie-in comes up.[5]
