"We came home from vacation in the 98 degree heat to find our AC unit had died. We sought out several quotes and decided to settle on Super Heating and Cooling. Their price was competitive, they were available in a time frame we could live with and most important, we felt comfortable with them. We never felt that they were trying to oversell us,, we felt at that time and still do, that Super Heating and Cooling gave us the perfect equipment for our home.
They came when expected, did a clean job and saved us from the insufferable heat. 
Super Heating and Cooling will definitely be our "go to" guys for as long as we live in this area.

"He did great.  The price was good.  I really needed that done and I don't know too much about plumbing, but the work he did, came by the house and looked at the pipe, then went and got the parts.  I'm not in that State but the house is.  My nephew let him in and everything was great.  The price was great.  The quality was good.  My nephew sent me pictures of the work he did - after it was broke and the water spilling out and everything - and all the parts were new.  He was on another job but as soon as he got done with that other job, he came straight to the house; my nephew was waiting on him and he was there like he said.   Those are good guys, The Plumber.  I live in another State and he still did the job and waited for me to send the money to him two days later.  I'm in Florida and the house is in Indiana."

"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."

"We had Wadsworth install a new A/C and heat pump. They were very thorough with the pre job inspection, more so that any other contractor. The price was well higher than all others but I don't mind paying a higher price for high quality work and initially that was what we received. The problems started when we tried scheduling our bi-annual service/maintenance that is mandatory to retain our warranty. The first occasion we called 3 times and were told someone would get back to us, no one ever did so I called Mike Sr. at home and that got the intended action started. The next time they made the appointment on our first attempt but then the did not show up when they were scheduled twice in a row. They didn't even call to cancel, we had to call them to be told they weren't going to make it. As i said before I don't mind paying more for quality, and I think $13,500 qualifies, but the after the sale service of Wadsworth is so sub standard I would not use them again nor would I recommend them to anyone."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Basements, specifically those without any air conditioning, are the best location for a hybrid water heater. These rooms are less likely to experience extreme temperature fluctuations, which can affect your hybrid water heater’s efficiency and performance. Basements often have more than enough space for their tanks and proper air circulation. Hybrid water heaters can also be a bit noisy, but putting them in your basement will keep the noise away from your main living areas.

Typically, only a high-efficiency water heater with an inducer fan can be vented outside the house. Otherwise, your water heater needs to be installed on the inside and vented through the roof. However, certain areas may allow a standard-efficiency water heater to be vented outside. Check your local building codes to be sure.

You don’t have to replace expansion tanks at the same time as your hot water heater. You may be able to go six to 12 years or more before needing to replace your expansion tank. At $150 to $450, hot water heater expansion tanks are usually much more affordable than the cost of hot water tanks themselves, which average about $1,190.

Water heater installation code requirements are in place to keep your family and home safe. Water heaters that are installed wrong can simply not work. However, that's an, if you're lucky, type of situation. More commonly, incorrectly installed water heaters pose a real threat from carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, water leaks, and even explosions.
