"Jeremy was very responsive and informative. I had a couple of other quotes that involved various iterations of "replace the old water heater and add these other features at the same time", and we were able to talk through the suggestions and determine what was really necessary. The final quote was very competitive, the new water heater is working great, and the installation itself was fast and without any problems that they couldn't solve without me!"

"Fast response took care of replacing my 20+ year old 120 gallon solar water heater. They ordered the water heater on a Monday afternoon had it installed by Thursday morning. It was not easy finding someone just to swap out a water heater that's for solar. Most plumbers shake in their boots when I mention solar, especially only a water heater swap-out."

"My husband is ill and I needed help. My water heater wasn't working so I called High Speed Plumbing. Donald was wonderful ! He arrived earlier than expected and was very personable. He found the problem quickly and replaced the water heater and some electrical problems. I had smelled plastic burning so I was very concerned. I now have hot water and am not concerned about a fire hazard. I would recommend this company and will call Donald the next time I have an issue. Great experience !!"

"They replaced my tankless water heater, under sink valves with quarter turn ball valves and three toilets. The price was fair, a little high, but the quality of work and service was excellent. These plumbers know what they are doing. They were timely and had good communication."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

It takes between one and three hours to replace a hot water heater element, depending on whether you hire a pro or do the work yourself. For example, a professional plumber with all the necessary tools and experience can often finish the job in one to two hours, whereas DIY will take two to three hours because it'll involve more preparation and troubleshooting.

Venting a gas water heater out of the roof is preferable in most cases. Heated exhaust gases naturally rise, so a vertical vent pipe is efficient. If you’re trying to vent through a pipe exiting a wall, the angle of the pipe may be more horizontal than vertical, making the venting system less effective. If you go through a wall, you may need to add a fan to ensure a successful expulsion of the gases outdoors.

Every city and state will have its own set of installation codes and laws. Some won’t require you to obtain a permit before replacing your water heater, though we recommend you do, regardless of the local codes. On the other hand, some cities and states might require secondary permits for plumbing and electrical work related to the installation. Check with a local water heater installation company and local building codes to confirm which permits are required and what the specific laws are.

Signs your electric water heater is failing include inconsistent water temperature, reduced hot water supply, longer heating times, or discolored water (rusty or cloudy). Unusual noises like popping or rumbling suggest sediment buildup, while leaks or corrosion around the tank signal structural damage. If your unit is over 10 to 15 years old and experiencing frequent issues, it may be time to replace it.

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