"Kirkwood Plumbing is represented by very capable plumbers, does its work without surprises, and has a very strong commitment to customer satisfaction. For those reasons I give it an A rating. Below is the story. I needed to have the upper stack of the toilet replaced and have a new toilet installed. Of the 3 companies I called, only Kirkwood Plumbing sent a master plumber, a plus. Paul was very observant and identified the least intrusive manner I was chip to complete the tasks, which in an old home, was not simple. Although not the least expensive bid, I accepted it based on the confidence Paul inspired. That was a very good decision. Greg arrived on time at the appointment date and immediately went to work. He is a capable plumber who worked very hard and efficiently, a plus. He had a great manner with his assistant and it was a pleasure to observe them working together. Greg was determined to leave me with running water and a functional toilet by the time he had to leave, and that was much appreciated. To that end, however, he did not take the time to go back to get the correct saw to cut through the cabinet and wall and thus created sufficient dust particles to saturate the air. Nor did he go back to get the correct shut off valve so he didn't install one. Those were negatives. After he left, I noticed that I could no longer open the faucets in the bathroom so I got in touch with Kirkwood plumbing. They immediately rescheduled a return visit, a positive. Greg attended to the issues that remained but couldn't repair the faucet problem. Although he was convinced that he did not cause this problem, he called Jason in to take over, another plus. Jason is a very thoughtful, methodical plumber who calmly and efficiently repaired the problem. I don't know if he thought this issue was a separate or related problem but he refused any additional payment that I offered, another plus."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

When replacing an old unit, you might want to switch from a gas water heater to an electric water heater or vice versa. To do this, you will likely need to add infrastructure to the area. For example, you likely don’t have a gas line that served your old electric water heater. You’d have to call a plumber to put in a new gas line. If you’re replacing a gas unit with an electric one, the plumber will need to safely cap the old gas line. You will then need an electrician to add wiring for the new electric unit.

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.

It takes between one and three hours to replace a hot water heater element, depending on whether you hire a pro or do the work yourself. For example, a professional plumber with all the necessary tools and experience can often finish the job in one to two hours, whereas DIY will take two to three hours because it'll involve more preparation and troubleshooting.

Electric water heaters do not need an attached vent, but the location of the water heater should allow for roughly 12 inches of clearance around it. This allows cool air to flow around the appliance and allows repair technicians to work on its components safely. The exact amount of clearance space required depends on your local building codes.

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.
