"Office staff was very helpful and professional. They took the time to address all my needs. Turned out I didn't need to replace the water heater. I am currently out of town, and would not of known the real problem if it were not for the honesty of the technician sent to perform the work. Saved me a lot of money. Will be calling them back as needed for sure."

"Ray not only answered his phone on the first ring, but he also came out immediately. To better explain the project to my wife, he returned later that night for an hour. He is extremely knowledgeable and personable. The pricing included professional and package discounts. Knowing we needed a working furnace in the midst of winter, his crew came 2 days later and within hours had installed the new unit. He then took time to explain how to best use the smart energy thermostat. We worked out financing and since installation, Ray has only been a call away. Plumbing & heating services vary widely, but with Mtn. Home Comfort, you get personal service, professional installation, and reasonable pricing."

"No water, but one Angies List company told us 2 weeks (because they were busy with air conditioners and hot water heaters), one told us the next day.  We called Advantage at 10:00, told us we would have technicians here by 1:00.  They were a little late, but called to tell us they would be.  Sean and David showed up, quickly assessed the problem, and began repairs.  Within an hour, the leak was fixed and we were able to turn the water back on!  With a household of 12, we were VERY grateful for the prompt response and fix.  We will definitely consider Advantage for any more plumbing issues, and highly recommend them.

"My old water heater went out yesterday and of course leaked water all over. I shut it off and stopped the leaking. Called early this morning looking for someone to install a new one. Jim was actually sent over by another plumber who could not get to my job right away. Jim showed up, looked at the job, we talked about the options and he gave me a bid. Let to get the new water heater. We back in about thirty minutes. He had to make some changes to the water and gas lines. Added shut offs and installed new one. Took the time to explain operation and maintenance of the new one. Cleaned up the work site. Removed all debris and old water heater. I was impressed with his work and his attitude.

"The yearly service works out to be $50 a month. We've had two water heaters replaced through them because of a fault in them. They're usually very responsive. I like that I can request the service online. The only thing is, I wish that there was a better avenue for emergency services. If something doesn't work right away usually it takes a couple of days to get someone out and sometimes you can't wait two days without water."

"It went great. Had them install a new tank less water heater because our old one went out. Everything went so well we had them come back and install a whole home water filtration system. We love both items. The owner was awesome. She was friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend their services to anyone."

"Went well as could be expected, needed a part and ordered, when part came in found out we needed another part which delayed fixing our heat for almost a week in total, but having a carrier unit and not having parts in town is what made it difficult, not A+ plumbing and heating. I will be hiring for all future plumbing and heating work!"

"I am a handyman myself, but some things are difficult to do by myself when shutting water off to an entire building with time constraints. I hired Pedro at RT plumbing, and he was able to come out to the jobsite with another one of his plumbers and knock out a laundry valve box replacement in a very timely and professional manner. The work was done correctly, and also important as well.... clean. Every line was wiped down after all the copper was sweated to a polished finish. Pedro and his apprentice got the job done same day which was great, too, and in only a couple hours. I would definitely recommend RT Plumbing and Pedro to anyone needing an experienced plumber that's prompt and does a professional job."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Electric water heaters use a high amount of electricity, so they’re best for homeowners who subsidize their electric bill with solar or who live in an area with inexpensive electricity. For others, gas water heaters versus electric water heaters may be the more cost-effective solution, with the added bonus of heating water quickly and efficiently. No matter which you choose, you can lower your water temperature as low as possible to keep costs down.

Water heater installation code requirements are in place to keep your family and home safe. Water heaters that are installed wrong can simply not work. However, that's an, if you're lucky, type of situation. More commonly, incorrectly installed water heaters pose a real threat from carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, water leaks, and even explosions. 

A thermocouple is a pretty simple device. It simply tells the control valve if heat is present. Most water heaters can use a universal thermocouple, provided it's the correct length. Getting one that's long enough for your appliance is crucial for success. However, some water heater models require model-specific thermocouples, which is why it's essential to take your existing one to the store to find the right match.

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.

If you have a tank-type electric water heater, it runs regularly to keep the water at the desired temperature. If you live in a home where you don’t use much hot water, it could seem wasteful to run power to heat water that you’re using infrequently. You could save some power by using a smaller tank, insulating the tank, or lowering the temperature of the water heater.
