Patrick started plumbing in 2000 and opened Lorenz Plumbing in 2019. With over 25 years of experience, we are your local, go-to, plumbing company. Our goal is to provide, professional, honest, and reliable service. We want to give you the best service for a fair price. Check us out on Google for more reviews from our customers.

"I originally spoke with the owner Patrick Lorenz,, who gave me an idea how we should approach this problem. I thought I needed a tankless hot water heater, which is very expensive but he gave me an alternative that I’m happy with. I had a tankless hot water heater in the past and that’s all I knew about getting instant hot water. The system he set up for me is just as good and cost pennies on the dollar compared to tankless. Might not be good for everyone, but it’s served our purpose. And I’m 100% satisfied I would highly recommend Lorenz Plumbing to anyone looking for a professional job and save a few dollars."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Every city and state will have its own set of installation codes and laws. Some won’t require you to obtain a permit before replacing your water heater, though we recommend you do, regardless of the local codes. On the other hand, some cities and states might require secondary permits for plumbing and electrical work related to the installation. Check with a local water heater installation company and local building codes to confirm which permits are required and what the specific laws are.

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.

If you're replacing a broken water heater, now is a great time to make sure you're selecting a unit that has the right capacity for your household. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, a small 50-gallon to 60-gallon tank is sufficient for households with one to three people. A medium-sized 80-gallon tank is considered ideal for three to four people. A larger tank may be needed if your household has four to six people.

You can convert a gas heater to electric, but it isn’t as simple as swapping a plug or two. First of all, you need to make sure there’s adequate power to the unit, as electric units require much higher power amounts versus gas. Then, you need to close off the gas lines and ventilation. Make sure you don’t also need a permit for an electric water heater—some cities require it. Making the switch can cost upwards of $1,500.

Due to the high temperature, using stainless steel vent pipes for your tankless water heater’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.
