From washing clothes to doing dishes or even enjoying a nice, hot shower, your water heater is a vital component of your home plumbing system.

Staton is a Navien Certified Dealer and Installer for Tankless Water Heaters

On average, a tank water heater will last about 12 years. If yours is older, replacing the unit may be a more cost-effective option. Keep in mind that lower-priced water heaters are often the least efficient, making them more expensive to operate and maintain over time. Staton Heating, Cooling & Plumbing offers the following water heater options to our clients in Anne Arundel and Howard Counties.

Gas Water Heaters

Gas water heaters are a popular choice for many people. Whether you want gas water heater repair or replacement, or you need to install a new gas water heater in your home or commercial building, Staton Heating, Cooling & Plumbing will make it easy for you to have quick water service. If you notice any of these things happening, please call us for service today Staton Heating, Cooling & Plumbing’s licensed plumbers will obtain necessary permits and licenses, secure needed inspections, haul off your old water heater and dispose of it properly, properly hook up your water heater to gas and give you peace of mind knowing that your family and home are protected from poor workmanship.

Electric Water Heaters

Electric water heaters use heated coils to warm stored water. To heat the water, an electric current passes through electrical-resistance heating elements. There are usually two heating elements — one in the middle of the tank and one at the bottom. It tends to take longer to heat water, but electric units usually have a higher storage capacity and are an easier choice for homes that don’t have existing natural gas service. Electric water heaters have low operating costs and fit in smaller spaces. Our certified electric water heater repair technicians will arrive promptly and let you know what repairs are needed. Whether you need a repair, replacement or installation, contact Staton Heating, Cooling & Plumbing today.

Tankless Water Heaters

Staton is a Navien Certified Dealer and Installer for Tankless Water Heaters and Boilers

Tankless water heaters heat water only when you turn on the faucet. They usually operate on natural gas, propane or electricity. The main advantage is that they eliminate the extra cost of keeping 40-50 gallons of water hot in a storage tank, so you waste less energy. Electric tankless water heaters are designed according to the amount of hot water required at peak use times. The water heater has a series of heating elements that are activated based on the demand. As water demand increases more elements are activated. This is different from an electric tank water heater where the elements are never on at the same time. Gas tankless water heaters operate by heating the water as it passes through the natural gas or propane heat exchanger. Staton Heating, Cooling & Plumbing’s experienced technicians have matched families with the right tankless water heater solution for their home and needs, helping them save hundreds of dollars a year in the process.

11/18/2025: Called Staton for a heat pump check-up and found out we had a faulty starter which could cause major problems down the road. Andrew my Staton technician clearly explained everything to me , but put no pressure on me to get it fixed immediately. I decided to get the job done at a great price. Andrew was awesome. He took care of my problem. He was a very professional, caring individual. I am very pleased with the results. I will not hesitate to call Staton again should I have another problem with my heat pump. What a wonderful company. I went down into the basement this morning (7/21/21 - Wednesday) and I found another leak in my overhead copper piping. I tried to fix it myself, but I made it much worse. I even had to turn the water off because of water escaping from the copper pipe. I called Stanton and was greeted by a very nice caring lady, and W. L. Staton was able to come out in the morning to fix my leak. Joe and Paul were very nice polite professionals I immediately took a liking to them . They ended up replacing all the copper hot water pipes in the basement ceiling for a very reasonable price. They quoted me the price before they began the work! (I had many other small leaks in these pipes.) They did a great job. NO MORE LEAKS!! I will recommend them to others, and they will be my go to plumbers from now on. Thank you W. L. Stanton!!

W. L. Staton was quick to respond to a domestic hot water outage on the same morning that I called for help. Vince Harris did a great job of performing routine maintenance on two Navien tankless hot water heaters, then making a hour-long trip to pick up a replacement part for one that failed on one of the units. His work was excellent, he was very courteous, and he went out of his way to pick up the part I needed to get my whole system up and running again. I will be calling W. L. Staton again for future maintenance and repairs on these units.

Joe Fanning was our Plumming tech. He did a very good job assessing the situation and the issue. Gave me a quote as to what he was going to do to correct the problem. He was very polite and courteous and respected our property. He did a great job in repairing the leaky pipe. Cleaned up the area and then explain to me what he did had me test it.

Tim was excellent! He explained everything that he checked while doing Fall HVAC maintenance, including 27 detailed pictures inside and outside the unit. All of the measurements were shown and were in range. I’m very impressed with how thorough and knowledgeable he was. He was very personable and professional, as well. We highly recommend W L Staton and Tim.
