"The Delaware Plumbing Professionals (DPP) that installed my products were Ryan and Anthony. I was very happy with the products and services provided to me. Here are things I want to express in no particular order. 1. Ryan/Anthony were on time. 2. They answered all of my questions. 3. I feel good knowing that my water hardness has decreased and the amount of chlorine in my water is less. (Artesian adds a lot of chlorine.) 4. I now get suds when I shampoo my hair. 5. My water tastes better. 6. I don't get orange rings in my toilet. 7. Ryan/Anthony are nice guys and a pleasure to talk to. 8. I was not pressured into buying anything. 9. I am definitely going to call DPP the next time I have a plumbing issue/need. 10. I will recommend DPP to my friends and family. Thank you, Alfred (Chad) Alspach"

"My hot water heater was replaced the same day. Old hot water heater was installed in 2000 so it didn't owe us anything. Done Right Today was courteous, professional, and offered a reasonable price. My wife and I were very pleased with their work. David and Jan Magaha"

"Project: Conversion from oil to gas heat and water heater including oil tank removal I don’t normally write reviews so I’ll start with the bottom line and go into more detail below. I highly recommend Burns & McBride for your heating, A/C jobs. From the sales, demolition and install they did the job right and for a good price. They participate in Energize Delaware program where DE provides rebates on upgrades in heating, A/C and insulation from select servicers enrolled in their program, saving you money. My oil furnace was 27 years old and had minor repairs to keep it going, the oil tank was from 1974 when the house was built. The tank was in the far corner of a crawl space not an easy place to remove. The water heater was a 10 year old electric about the time to start thinking of replacement. I had four estimates for the job. Bidders fell into two categories, those who participate in the Energize DE program (which qualified for DE rebates) and those who did not. Companies not in the program trashed it and said it was too much work to comply with the rules and that the cost would be inflated by the contractors (BALONEY!!). Those in the program gave me a sense of the cost before the rebates but none gave me any sense that they were capable of all aspects of the job and most did not even come back with a bid. Jim Myers from Burns & McBride was my salesman; he worked in the business and knows his stuff. He came in assessed the job and put together a plan with the costs and eligible rebates on the spot. By far the most professional of 4 other companies I spoke to. The crew, Calvin and Keith, spent the first day getting rid of the old equipment including cutting up the old oil tank. The next day they worked late putting a new furnace, tank less water heater, and humidifier and took care of all the gas and water line hook ups. These guys worked hard, knew what they were doing and did a GREAT JOB. They got us up and running the second day as promised. If you thinking of any doing any heating A/C work you really ought to call Burns & McBride, I was very impressed and pleased with their work"

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

The time it takes to install or replace a water heater depends on the type of heater and the complexity of the job. A professional can typically replace a standard tank-style water heater in one to three hours. However, if the work area is tight, such as a small closet or crawl space, the job could take four to five hours. Replacing an existing tankless unit takes about two to three hours, while upgrading from a tank-style to a tankless water heater is more complex and can take four to six hours. The project will take longer if you are switching fuel sources, such as installing a gas heater which can add about an hour to the timeline, or if the unit needs to be relocated.

While not all homes require a hot water heater expansion tank, they are necessary in most newer homes and are often mandated by local building codes. Codes typically require an expansion tank if your plumbing system is a 'closed-loop' system, which often includes a backflow preventer or pressure regulator on the main water line. Some municipalities have specific requirements. Installing an expansion tank on a closed system is crucial, as it prevents excess pressure that can damage your water heater and other appliances, potentially shortening their lifespan. However, tankless water heaters do not require an expansion tank.

A water heater is one of the heaviest hitters in your home, and it needs as much power as possible to help it run efficiently and effectively.

Your water heater should be on its own dedicated circuit breaker, with no other power sources running to it. This is required to meet the National Electric Code–and to ensure it runs as efficiently as possible.

One of the primary benefits of a heat pump water heater is how cost-effective it is. How much you save will depend on your water usage and electricity costs. That being said, we can ballpark savings for the average home of between $100 and $500 per year. You can increase that savings rate by researching and applying available energy incentives available in your area. If you really want to focus on cost, consider a tankless water heater.

Tankless water heaters are more expensive than those with a storage tank, but they come with some impressive benefits that most homeowners find worth the higher investment. Most importantly, they provide unlimited hot water, so you’ll never run out like you would with a storage tank. Tankless heaters are also more efficient, so comparing gallon-for-gallon, you’ll spend less on hot water with a tankless heater. Tankless water heaters are also smaller, require less maintenance, and tend to last longer than storage tank water heaters.
