Q: How much do different types of water heaters cost?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:</p><ul><li><p>Electric: $600&ndash;3,500</p></li><li><p>Gas: $700&ndash;$2,700</p></li><li><p>Propane: $700&ndash;$2,500</p></li><li><p>High efficiency: $1,500&ndash;$3,000</p></li><li><p>Indirect: $1,200&ndash;$3,500</p></li><li><p>Hybrid heat pump: $1,200&ndash;$3,500</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What do I need to replace after water damage?

• <div><p>Any item that can hold on to moisture and encourage mold growth should be discarded and replaced following water damage. Upholstered items, such as armchairs and couches, and soft items, such as mattresses, usually must be thrown away once they've taken on a lot of water. Soft furniture is difficult to dry out, creating an inviting environment for mold.</p><p>You may also need to replace hardwood furniture following water damage if you're unable to fully dry it out. If you have appliances and electronics that have been fully submerged in water, particularly sewage, you'll need to replace those, too.</p></div>

Q: Are water heaters covered under a home warranty?

• <div><p>The good news is that most home warranty plans cover hot water heaters, regardless of whether you have a tank or a tankless model. Your hot water heater should be covered by your home warranty because it's considered an essential home appliance. </p></div>

Q: What is the proper vent pipe for a water heater?

• <div><p>Due to the high temperature, using stainless steel vent pipes for your tankless water heater&rsquo;s exhaust vent is best. Also, it is safe to use a flexible vent duct as the exhaust fan. If installing the exhaust fan yourself, make sure you are using heat-resistant silicon to connect the exhaust vent and the duct on your water heater.</p></div>

Q: Can I use multiple tankless water heaters?

• <div><p>You can use multiple tankless water heaters, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean you should. Adding multiple tankless heaters adds considerable cost to your home in both parts and installation costs. Also, you&rsquo;re adding many more points of failure in the system, making plumbing issues harder to diagnose. More heaters mean more maintenance, and insurers may want a word regarding the increased risk of water damage. A single, larger unit makes more sense in most situations. </p></div>

"We pay yearly but we have this is included with our rental property. They are pretty good on most things. We had a hot water heater replaced and they did an excellent job on that. They are very quick on their response. They dont come out here. It is all done on the internet. I just like the idea that one time service charge is so much better than trying to hiring someone to come in. It is more about convenience. It pays for itself."
