Why Water Heater Straps Matter More Than You Think

Water heater straps—also known as seismic straps—are essential for protecting your property and ensuring safety during earthquakes or other sudden impacts. These heavy-duty bands anchor your unit to the wall, helping prevent tipping, gas leaks, flooding, or even fires. In states like California, where seismic activity is a concern, water heater straps aren’t just a safety feature—they’re a legal requirement.

The Water Heater Company specializes in securing both new and existing water heaters with durable, code-compliant strap systems. Whether you’re installing a brand-new tank or simply updating an older unit, we’ll make sure your system is safe, stable, and fully up to code.
