"This company was quick to respond to my call about a leaking water heater. After diagnosing my problem they explained my options and recommended a course of action. The next day my problem was fixed and I know have a beautifully installed tankless water heater! These folks were great to work with and treated our home with great care."

"We contracted with High Five Plumbing to purchase and install a 40 gallon water heater to replace a 21-year-old unit. Our experience with the company was terrific. Members of the office staff were cordial, helpful, and professional, providing options and information, following-up on appointments, etc. Caleb, who installed the water heater, is a real pro and a good guy who answered all our questions and provided a thorough explanation of the various services offered by High Five. He is a credit to his company. We didn't have a plumber on our contacts list. We do now. Cliff Foster, Denver"

"Excellent...we had some additional issues related to water pressure regulator, piping, etc. The situation happened on the weekend and we had hot water running by Monday afternoon. An EXTREMELY short time compared to our last water heater issue. Highly recommend Heart and will use them from now on."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

Depending on the brand of water heater, you may need to install an expansion tank in order to meet the conditions for warranty coverage. It’s important for consumers to read the fine print of the warranty to see if an expansion tank is necessary. Even if an expansion tank isn’t required for the warranty, it’s usually mandated by building codes—although not for tankless water heaters.

There are pros and cons to tankless water heaters. They are more efficient than traditional tank water heaters, and maintenance costs are lower. These units are also much more compact. On the other hand, they cost about twice as much to install as traditional tank water heaters and are more limited in terms of flow rate.

The average lifespan of a water heater is eight to 12 years. If your water heater is approaching its first decade of life and is giving you problems, talk to a plumber about your replacement options.

Keep in mind that certain parts of a water heater, such as the anode rod, may need replacement long before the heater itself. An anode rod often has a lifespan of three to five years.

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.

No, you’ll need to drain the tank before changing a water heater element, as the water heater element sticks through the side of the tank and uses a gasket to prevent water from pouring out. However, you don’t always need to drain it completely. If you’re only replacing the upper heating element, you can drain the tank until the water line is below the element. If you’re replacing the lower element, you’ll need to drain the whole thing.
