Cold South Dakota winters make reliable hot water a non-negotiable. If your tank is older than 10 years, produces lukewarm water, or shows signs of corrosion, it may be time to consider a replacement. CountBricks streamlines every step of the process—from on-site voice capture to final invoice—so Sioux Falls homeowners get transparent pricing in minutes rather than days.
Energy savings, improved comfort, and insurance incentives lead our local clients to switch. CountBricks tracks current utility rebates and models lifetime operating costs to prove ROI up front. Whether you’re eyeing a 50-gallon electric tank or a high-efficiency gas tankless unit, CountBricks pinpoints real-time materials pricing from Sioux Falls suppliers to keep budgets accurate.
• Up to 35 % lower monthly energy bills with ENERGY STAR units
• Space savings of 6–15 sq ft when moving from tank to tankless
• Digital leak detection options that reduce water damage claims
CountBricks AI pulls current distributor pricing for all major brands available in Sioux Falls. Homeowners instantly see the delta between standard and premium units, including warranty length and efficiency ratings.

In the Prairie Heights neighborhood, the Johnson family upgraded from a 15-year-old 40-gallon gas tank to a condensing tankless model. CountBricks identified a $250 MidAmerican Energy rebate and shaved $180 off materials by comparing three local suppliers in real time. The final installed cost landed at $3,050—8 % below the homeowner’s original budget—and utility bills dropped by 32 % during the first winter.

• Confirm fuel availability. Natural gas lines may need upsizing for tankless units—CountBricks flags this during the estimating phase.
• Plan for condensate management. High-efficiency models create acidic condensate that must drain to code-approved locations.
• Upgrade shut-off valves. Adding full-port ball valves simplifies future maintenance and is a minimal cost when done during installation.
• Consider recirculation loops. CountBricks can model loop lengths and pump sizing to deliver instant hot water at distant fixtures.
• Schedule inspections early. Sioux Falls inspectors book quickly in winter months; our app auto-synchronizes your preferred dates.
