"The work done wasn’t what is shown above, but that was the closest option. The plumbing was checked throughout the house. He inspected all sink and tub/shower drains and valves, the sump pump, hot water heater, and main water shutoff. He explained any possible problems that could be changed. He was pleasant and helpful. I would recommend him and request him for future issues."

"Another great experience with Vanguard. My main water line to the house sprung a leak at 2pm on a Saturday. I have used Vanguard in the past and was very happy with them, so I called and got an appointment for Monday and was OK being without water for a day or so. David (tech) texted me 30 min later and said he could come earlier on Monday which was great, and when I explained what was happening in more detail, he offered to come out right then, on a Saturday! I explained that I could wait until Monday, but he insisted, and was there in a hour, and had it fixed 45min later. Thank you David! And if you are looking for a plumber, don’t go anywhere else!"

"Jorge came out first and he showed me all the problems inside my unit and under my house. I made the decision to purchase a new unit and those guys were great too. Luis and I’m sorry I forgot the other guys name put duct work crawling on their backs under my mobile home. Amazing ! Jorge was polite and courteous and gave me options. It was all done the same day. Thank you Iceberg"

"Found Sunlight through Homeadvisor. Have old solar hot water system that needed old pipes replaced. I did not think system was salvageable, and was going to cost thousands for new system. Sunlight came out and repaired old hot water solar system, and reset pump from water heater to solar collector. Did not need to buy new system. Very reasonable and professional, they new what they were doing and I appreciate their honesty. Now looking to redo pool solar and possibly add solar panels in the future and will use then. Highly recommend Sunlight Solar. Richard M"

"I recently hired Tom from Premier Backflow to install a new water heater, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. From the moment I contacted them, they were responsive and professional. They provided a clear estimate upfront, arrived on time, and were very respectful of my home. The work was completed efficiently and with great attention to detail. Tom was knowledgeable and took the time to explain the issue and the repairs he was making, ensuring I understood everything before proceeding. He also checked for other potential problems and offered preventative advice without trying to upsell unnecessary services. Pricing was very fair, and there were no hidden fees or surprises. I highly recommend Premier Backflow for anyone looking for reliable, professional plumbing services. PS I also hired Tom to install water softening system!"

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.

If you're replacing a broken water heater, now is a great time to make sure you're selecting a unit that has the right capacity for your household. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, a small 50-gallon to 60-gallon tank is sufficient for households with one to three people. A medium-sized 80-gallon tank is considered ideal for three to four people. A larger tank may be needed if your household has four to six people.

Water expands when heated and also when freezing. When water is heated, it expands by around 4%. For a full water heater, this is one of the main reasons malfunctions occur—the hot water has nowhere else to go but out. Due to the constant expansion and reduction in volume, it’s recommended (required in most places) that an expansion tank be installed.

A well-maintained hot water recirculating pump can last 5 to 15 years. Pumps that run continuously may have a shorter lifespan than demand-controlled models. Hard water can reduce longevity by causing mineral buildup in the pump and pipes. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, can extend the pump’s lifespan.

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.
