"I was very pleased with your work performed by Stan and his son. They were on time, professional, and explained everything to me before they left. They went over everything with me to make sure I was happy with their work. I would definitely recommend them and I’ll call them again for all my plumbing needs in the future."

"Paul and T. J. were courteous and competent. Not only did they replace the leaking pipe, but they also rerouted it so that I wouldn't have that problem again. They changed a light bulb that had burned out and cleaned up the mess the leaking pipe had caused. I recommend them highly."

After he installed my water line the pvc pipe busted I believe by no faul of his own. He came the same day I called and took care of the problem. Nice job Stan. Thank you!"

"It went terrific, I was kinda nervous at first because my house is very old and my water heater was in very bad shape. The guys came in and did a wonderful job. Couldn’t even tell they were there and only charged me 850 dollars. They cleaned up all messes made by installation and even looked at my kitchen sink for me to see why I was getting bad pressure. 10/10 would reccomend."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

If you want instant hot water and to reduce water waste while improving convenience, a hot water recirculating system is worth it, especially if you find your hot water heater is not hot enough. These systems can save thousands of gallons of water each year so you don't have to wait for hot water at faucets and showers. The upfront investment can be high, especially for systems requiring additional plumbing, but the long-term savings on water bills and added comfort make them a worthwhile upgrade.

While a water heater explosion is rare, it is a serious danger. Be aware of these critical warning signs:

  • Sulfur or Rotten Egg Smell: This is a major red flag, especially for gas water heaters. It can indicate a gas leak, which could ignite and cause an explosion.

  • Leaking Pressure Valve: If the temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve is leaking, it may not be able to properly regulate internal pressure, creating a risk of bursting.

  • Shaking or Rumbling: Loud rumbling or shaking from the tank can be a sign of extreme pressure buildup.

  • Excessive Heat: If the exterior of the water heater feels unusually hot to the touch, the unit may be overheating dangerously.

  • Rust-Colored Water: This can be a symptom of severe internal corrosion that compromises the tank's integrity.

If you notice any of these signs, especially a gas smell, you must act immediately. Shut off the gas supply to the water heater and call a professional plumber right away to prevent a potential disaster.

Due to the high temperature, using stainless steel vent pipes for your tankless water heater’s exhaust vent is best. Also, it is safe to use a flexible vent duct as the exhaust fan. If installing the exhaust fan yourself, make sure you are using heat-resistant silicon to connect the exhaust vent and the duct on your water heater.

Traditional gas or electric water heaters last an average of six to 11 years. However, with excellent maintenance, they can last up to 15 years. Heat pump water heaters, on the other hand, last an average of between 12 and 15 years and potentially longer with proper maintenance. In both cases, your home's water quality can be a determining factor regarding the lifespan of your water heater.

You can and should vent the gas from your hot water heater to the outside of your home. Traditionally, these gases were vented back to other gas appliances, like stoves or furnaces, but many jurisdictions have outlawed this practice due to the risks it provides. 

Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.
