Expert Water Heater Installation in New Jersey

Water heater installation is one of the most common plumbing jobs we handle across Morris, Somerset, and Union counties. At Carmine P Aumenta & Sons Plumbing & Heating Inc., we size, position, and connect new units to match each home's actual hot water demand. Homes across our service area vary widely. Older properties in Mendham, Bernardsville, and Morristown often have tight basement mechanical rooms, aging supply lines, or venting setups that need attention before a new unit goes in. Newer builds in Basking Ridge, Florham Park, and Westfield typically have more straightforward access. We assess the existing plumbing, check valve condition, confirm proper venting, and connect the unit cleanly before testing for leaks and performance. We serve homeowners from Jersey City and Hoboken to Bedminster, Far Hills, and Randolph. Call Carmine P Aumenta & Sons to schedule your water heater installation.

My family has called on Aumenta Plumbing for years! And they have always provide excellent service. In June, we had to have a toilet replaced and a kitchen faucet installed. They discovered during the toilet replacement, that one of our old pipes had been decaying. They were able to include that repair on the same day. Then more recently, we needed our bathtub unclogged and they came right away. My family and I are so glad that Carmine's sons have continued the business and the level of service quality that their father provided. Highly recommend!

As the owner of a historic single family home in Jersey City, since 2014, I have turned to Ben and his family for all my plumbing needs— from boiler maintenance to major work and even emergencies. This family run business has always been there with top quality work and professionalism. I highly recommend Aumenta.

Ben Aumenta handled our job, everything with our hot water heather replacement job was quick and clear. We had an issue with the exhaust pipe on our previous hot water heater so Ben made sure he could fit us in asap to replace the whole set up. He also noticed that the condensation pipe from our HVAC system was dropped on an angle that would make draining difficult and he propped it up for us even though we hadn't hired him for the HVAC. Great attention to detail and care for the customer, we're really happy. Communication from Aumenta was excellent - email and text notifications when the estimate was scheduled as well as when the install was happening, so we always knew what to expect. We'd definitely recommend them!

Absolutely outstanding service from start to finish! From the very first call, the receptionist was professional, prompt, and genuinely sweet. She made what could have been a stressful situation feel completely effortless. Even though we called last minute, they kindly squeezed us into their schedule and were true to their word on the arrival time. Our plumber from Carmine P. Aumenta & Sons Plumbing-Heating was an absolute pleasure — kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. He got the job done quickly while making us feel completely at ease. This is exactly how a family business should operate: with warmth, expertise, and total reliability. They are most certainly making their late father proud. We will happily call Carmine P. Aumenta & Sons for any future plumbing or heating needs. Highly, highly recommend!

Kristina Google review · June 2026

My sister recommended Aumenra Plumbing to me last year. I had them come and replace my hot water heater and repair an issue with my furnace. They were efficient and reasonably priced. I called them this year to replace the connection for my garden hose and then to add a water line for my washing machine. I am more than pleased with their work and recommend them highly.
