"I would highly recommend Sexton Plumbing Service for any of your plumbing needs. Installed a new Hot Water Heater on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Very professional and prompt. They had to come back and correct a problem with the hot water and corrected the problem in just a few minutes. In my opinion, Sexton Plumbing is a great business and will use them again if I need any more plumbing problems. Satisfied Customer!! Jimmy Sanders"

"Great company to work with if you have ANY water issues at all in your home. We purchased the biggest bundle and could not be happier. Our water is softer, meaning I have to scrub the showers less (YAY!) and our drinking water is safer. 10/10 would recommend."

"I highly recommend them for a water heater replacement. The owner, John Burt, is a master plumber and gas fitter certified. My 16 years old natural gas water heater, located in my attic, had to be replaced asap. I did not want the new gas water heater installed in the attic for peace of mind, so I contacted several companies about installing it on floor level in my garage storage room. Burt Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning came to the rescue with a very reasonable price and assurance that my new water heater can be placed in the garage storage room. Mr. Burt did an EXCELLENT job with rerouting the gas line, the water line, drainpipe, and other things from the attic to the storage room. He did a very good, professional, and neat job and he cleaned up afterward. He arrived before the scheduled time, which was especially important to me."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Tankless water heaters heat water as it passes through the unit instead of storing heated water in the tank. Their ability to produce hot water on an as-needed basis makes them more efficient. However, they are generally more expensive than traditional units. Is a tankless water heater worth it? Most homeowners will save money with a tankless unit in the long run by using less energy.

Every type of water heater has its advantages and disadvantages. Understanding those can help you decide the best type for your situation and budget. 

Pros

  • Safer than gas or propane

  • Doesn’t require extensive venting systems

  • Lower upfront costs

  • Simpler to operate

  • No pilot light

  • Easier installation

  • More efficient heating than gas models

  • Available as point-of-use (POU) and whole-house units

Cons

  • Slower to heat water

  • Longer recovery time

  • Possibly higher operating costs

  • Doesn’t work during a power outage

  • Costs can increase without a 240-volt connection

Unless you have previous plumbing experience or extensive experience with water heaters, you should avoid replacing your electric water heater yourself. This process involves disconnecting wiring and parts from the old water heater and reinstalling them onto the new one, among other difficult tasks. This job is best left to the pros to make sure that everything is connected correctly to avoid serious leaks or malfunctions.

While not all homes require a hot water heater expansion tank, they are necessary in most newer homes and are often mandated by local building codes. Codes typically require an expansion tank if your plumbing system is a 'closed-loop' system, which often includes a backflow preventer or pressure regulator on the main water line. Some municipalities have specific requirements. Installing an expansion tank on a closed system is crucial, as it prevents excess pressure that can damage your water heater and other appliances, potentially shortening their lifespan. However, tankless water heaters do not require an expansion tank.

An average-sized empty water heater weighs around 150 pounds. Tankless water heaters are much lighter, weighing between 10 and 50 pounds. The smaller size and added convenience come at a price, though—tankless water heaters average about twice the price of their traditional counterparts.
