"Mike Williams false advertising. No Service. It is unfortunate they do not have minus stars. I honestly do not understand how they can be in business. Sold and installed (a shabby job) $13,000 furnace and A/C it worked for a about a month. Brought the baby home from the hospital furnace did not work. Goof they sent over said it was set op for a heat pump and never started properly. He claimed all was OK. Three weeks later no heat. 3 week old baby, 1 year old toddler, it's currently 28 degrees out side and under 60 degrees inside. Called for service. They claim they have 24 hour service. Said they would call at 7 in the morning the next day. Their add in the phone book says 100% Guarantee or your money back. Mike Williams (probably a fake name, no one would put their real name on a sham like this) come get your junk furnace, your no service, give my money back so I can go to a real HVAC company and get a job done properly and 24 hour service. Stick to what you might know best the wax ring at a toilet bowl."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

If you’re having problems with your hot water heater and it’s 10 to 15 years old—the typical life span of a gas hot water heater—you may want to consider replacing it rather than repairing it. Water heater replacement costs about $1,300 on average. If your water heater is younger than nine or 10 years, paying for repairs is most likely worth it. You can always have a plumber assess your fixture to see what it would cost to fix it and then decide if it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace it.

The cost to install a new water heater depends on the type and its size, but homeowners pay between $900 and $1,800 on average. By contrast, you’ll pay much less for certain repairs, like replacing a broken gas valve, which costs between $150 and $550 on average.

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.

If your system is not vented properly, you could experience what’s called backdrafting. Backdrafting is when your ventilation system isn’t working as it should, and instead of releasing gases outside, they get trapped inside your home. 

Gas and propane water heaters create a few types of combustion gases, but the most dangerous is carbon monoxide. If there’s too much build-up of these gases inside your home, it can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

Excessive pressure (above 80 psi) puts too much stress on plumbing pipes, joints, and fixtures. This can lead to leaks and burst pipes. Plus, it shortens the lifespan of appliances, can waste water, and can raise your utility bills. High water pressure might feel like a gift, but it’s actually a silent threat to plumbing.
