"Did a $59 consult only. Turned out the cost of repairing the old heater was almost as much as a new one, so we got a new one, and handled the install ourselves. Luis B was great, knowledgeable, friendly, didn't try to upcharge just to sell a heater, which we appreciated. Gave us an honest evaluation, several options, and was right on time. I will say, though, that the company failed to call me when he was on his way... not a big deal. All in all a good experience."

"They were very prompt, polite, and professional. My water heater was in a tricky spot . He ended up needing to disconnect a few things related to my furnace as well. They did it without charging me anything extra and When they were done, everything looked and worked great."

"I have hired this company three times ..(1) laundry room renovation, (2) removing a microwave and installing an over the stove ventilation fan hood (3) a home water filtration system. Let me expand on this.. I had a filtration system installed end of last year, it started leaking and the original plumber pretty much ignored me and my phone calls. I called Alvco for help. They promptly responded. Upon inspection of the system, I found out it had been installed incorrectly â ¦ Tim completely reconfigured it â ¦ copper pipes, shut off valves, bypass shut off valves and pressure release valves â ¦ not to mention replacing the leaky filter encasing. Every job they have done has been done way above my expectationsâ ¦ I will , honestly, never use anyone else, They are knowledgeable, efficient, prompt, friendly, great communicators and they listen . This company is second generation family owned since 1984. This shows love, respect, dedication, motivation and just overall family tradition, In my opinion, these are all very positiveâ ¦ running a business, or just living each day. Deb"

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

The average water heater holds between 40 and 60 gallons, but the exact amount of water that comes out during draining will depend on your unit’s capacity. The amount of time it takes to drain a water heater averages from 10 to 30 minutes.

When the water expands in a hot water heater, it puts pressure on your hot water pipes and can cause leaks or a rupture in the hot water tank under certain conditions. Pipes or water heaters may split due to the pressure where there is a backflow preventer that prevents the hot water heater from diffusing pressure by releasing water back to the public water line.

In these scenarios, a hot water heater expansion tank provides a place for the hot water heater to relieve pressure and prevent bursts and leaks.

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.

In most municipalities, a license is not mandatory for water heater installation or replacement. However, we strongly recommend hiring a licensed plumber or water heater installer to handle the work. Licensed installers are far less likely to make a mistake during the installation, which means paying for the experience decreases your risk of a leak and other issues. You can use our state licensing tool to find out if a contractor you’re considering in your area holds a plumber’s license.
