"We were very happy with American Family. Their bid was competitive and the installation of our new air conditioner went very smoothly. They removed the existing system and were great about not destroying our landscape. We had them install the new system in a new location, away from the back patio. So far everything seems to be running fine and I would happily recommend them to anyone."

"I had a 20+ year old water heater. The expansion tank developed a leak. I contacted Wagner and Sons. Mike gave me a suggestion to temporarily fix the leak. After discussion I contracted him and his son to replace the water heater and expansion tank. He said he could be there at 12:00PM on Monday. He was right on time. He replaced the water heater and the expansion tank in just over one hour. Hauled away the old heater for free."

"My 15 year old water heater started leaking and causing my carbon monoxide detector to go off. I decided to just get a new one since it was on its last legs anyway. The first plumbing service I called couldn't fit me in until the following afternoon, so I called Plumb-It instead. Scott quoted me some prices and said he could be there the same afternoon, and in fact, he arrived a little early, which was great. Everything took about 2 hours, the new water heater has been great, and my CO detector has been silent. Definitely would hire again."

"Very, very happy with the services Toptec provided. I used them for installing a new hot water heater, installing a new furnace, and some minor electrical work. First of all, very professional. Brian came out, talked to me about what I needed and wanted, and gave me some suggestions. He provided a quote that gave me a few options, with absolutely no pressure to upgrade or add on services. The quote was more than competitive with other contractors I talked to. After I agreed to the contract, Toptec had Brian and John out to perform the work the following day. Both were very professional, clean, and the work looks superior. Immediately following my good experience, I had a minor electrical problem. Called Toptec and they had Gary out to my house in 45 minutes. Again, top of the line professional who figured out a weird wiring situation. When I go to upgrade my electrical I will definitely use Toptec and request Gary. Highly recommend this company."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

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.

You can use multiple tankless water heaters, but that doesn’t mean you should. Adding multiple tankless heaters adds considerable cost to your home in both parts and installation costs. Also, you’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.

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.

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.

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.

The average cost to replace a water heater is around $1,325, with a typical range of $900 to $1,800 for a standard replacement. The final price depends on the type of heater (tank vs. tankless), its size, fuel source (gas or electric), and the complexity of the installation. A simple one-to-one replacement will be on the lower end of the cost spectrum. However, if you are switching from one type of heater or energy source to another, you can expect labor costs to be significantly higher due to the extra work involved. It's also worth considering that while gas and electric heaters may have similar upfront costs, their long-term operating costs can differ based on local utility prices.
