New hot water for Fairbanks, built to last.
From a straight tank swap to a full tankless upgrade, our licensed crew handles the whole job: sizing, permits, haul-away, and a clean, code-correct install.
Tank Water Heaters
Right-sized 40, 50, and 75 gallon tanks installed and hauled away, same day in most cases.
Tankless Upgrades
Endless hot water and lower bills with a properly sized tankless system built for Alaska demand.
Full Replacement
We remove the old unit, update fittings and venting to code, and leave the space spotless.
Permits & Code
Licensed, permitted, and inspected work so your install is safe and warranty-ready.
Gas & Electric
Gas, electric, and hybrid heat-pump models, sized to your home and how you actually use hot water.
Upfront Pricing
A firm quote before we start. No surprise add-ons, no pressure, ever.
A water heater rarely fails at a good time.
Most tanks last 8 to 12 years, and in Fairbanks hard water can cut that short. Rusty water, popping sounds, or a unit past its prime are all warnings. Replacing on your schedule beats an emergency flood on the coldest week of the year.
- Same-day replacement available
- Tank and tankless options, no pressure
- Old unit removed and hauled away
- Financing on larger installs

“Woke up to no heat at 38 below and a cold house. Prospector had a tech at our door before lunch and the boiler running by afternoon. Calm, fast, and they explained everything.”
“A pipe burst in our crawlspace during the cold snap. They stopped the leak, replaced the line, and left the space cleaner than they found it. No surprises on the bill.”
