"Was selling my apartment and wanted to service heater prior to listing. Moore provided great technicians who tried everything they could to reset and fix some mechanical issues. Provided lots of info and updates while they worked, showed me everything they were doing, where problems were, etc. In the end, the heater was too far gone and a whole replacement was recommended. Moore was able to schedule the replacement within a week. Whole project was completed in 4.5 hours and came in under their initial estimate. 10/10 would recommend them to all friends and family."

"I would highly recommend Ray’s Rescue Plumbing. He was very clean, prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. We had several issues ranging from leaks, repairs and installing a tankless water heater. Ray’s prices were competitive and he actually saved us a few thousand dollars from a previous bid from a ‘not so honest’ plumber."

"I had a leak in a pipe in the radiant heating pipes in the slab under my house. James was able to isolate the leak and re plumb my system without cutting a hole in the slab. He and his crew did some great creative plumbing that took care of the leak and separated the unused radiant system from my household plumbing and they even installed a new tankless heater in a single days work.. I recommend James and Bowen Plumbing without reservation. They are the Best!"

"These guys rocked, from the time I called on a Friday, to the install of our brand new furnace the following Tuesday! Technician-Scott and Ryan were prompt, friendly, informative and professional. The quote/estimate given was fair/reasonable and in the end was what we paid. Installers-Oscar and Kevin were prompt, friendly, informative, professional, quick and did an outstanding job. Thank you to everyone at Elevated Comfort for your great service! I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing HVAC work to be done!"

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Heat pump water heaters, also known as hybrid water heaters, are the most efficient types of water heaters—both in terms of carbon emission and energy efficiency. This type of water heater utilizes as little as half of the energy of a traditional water heater while releasing no direct emissions. Tankless water heaters are also extremely efficient, although slightly less so than hybrid heaters.

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

The lifespan of a water heater depends on its type, usage, and maintenance schedule. Traditional tank-style water heaters typically last between 8 and 12 years, though the range can be as wide as 6 to 15 years. Within this category, gas models often last 8-12 years, while electric models may last 10-15 years. In contrast, tankless water heaters have a significantly longer lifespan, often lasting up to 20 years or more. Factors like heavy usage, hard water, and sediment buildup can shorten a unit's life. To extend its lifespan, it is crucial to perform regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank annually and scheduling professional inspections. If your unit is over a decade old and shows signs of rust, leaks, strange noises, or inconsistent heating, it is likely time for a replacement.

No state requires you to vent an electric water heater. Other installation requirements for water heaters will vary, though, depending on the state and local jurisdiction in which you live. Some places require permits, while others don’t. Some may force you to place the appliance a certain distance from any walls or other appliances, while others don't. When you find a local professional to install a water heater, this expert will ensure you follow all the local regulations.

A tankless water heater can last up to 20 years, which is nearly double the lifespan of a conventional tank heater. However, their longevity is highly dependent on several factors. With proper installation and regular maintenance, such as descaling to prevent mineral buildup from hard water, you can expect a lifespan of 15 to 20 years. Without proper care, a tankless unit may begin to fail in as little as 12 years. Other factors that affect its lifespan include household usage and the quality of the local water supply. While they have a higher upfront cost, their energy savings, smaller size, and longer life make them a worthwhile investment for many homeowners.
