"I was not familiar with JL Anderson until reading all the positive reviews on Angie's List, so we decided to give them a try.  Joe Kollman arrived right on time for our appointment and was very knowledgeable and patient answering my multitude of questions and subsequent e-mails before we finally made a decision.  We were originally going to replace just our 20 year-old air conditioner but decided to have them replace the furnace as well so we could have two stage heat and a variable speed blower.  Our furnace was also 9 years old and noisy.  We have a zoned system with two thermostats, and Joe completely understood what was needed to recommend the best option.  The installers, Kirt and Cody, were extremely courteous and showed up on time.  The HVAC installation took the better part of two days as expected, and they got enough done the first day such that the house was warm when we got home from work and through the night.  They were very respectful of our house and left our basement cleaner than when they arrived!  Their installation was the very best I've seen.  Ironically, the night we were to review work with Joe, we discovered that our water heater had started to leak.  Joe was able to rearrange appointments the next day to have Kirt and Cody back out to do the water heater replacement.  Joe checked available options and reviewed those with me starting early the following morning.  He made a special trip to our house to make sure the new water heater would fit and and was back out with the new unit in his truck staying to help his guys carry it to the basement (since we upgraded to a 75 gallon model due to teenagers in the house).  In less than 24 hours, we had a new water heater and hot water.  The entire system is amazingly quiet compared to our old equipment.  I can't say enough about Joe, Kirt, and Cody and would highly recommend JL Anderson."

"The initial response was very quick and Jeremy gave us a thorough explanation of what to expect. The very next morning, he was able to come to our house, check out our water heater and go over everything that it was going to take to replace the old unit. We found that this company, Water Heaters Express, was very professional, knowledgeable, and had the experience that we wanted when it came to replacing our older unit. Could not believe how quickly the job was completed from start to finish!! Would absolutely recommend Water Express Heaters, veteran owned and operated!!!"

"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."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

When installing a new furnace, it's a good time to consider other projects that can enhance your home's energy efficiency. A great first step is to get a home energy audit, which will identify areas for improvement. Common recommendations include sealing or replacing windows and adding insulation to the attic. These upgrades can help you save money on monthly utility costs. You might also consider installing a smart thermostat to make heating your home more convenient and efficient.

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.

It’s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:

  • Electric: $600–3,500

  • Gas: $700–$2,700

  • Propane: $700–$2,500

  • High efficiency: $1,500–$3,000

  • Indirect: $1,200–$3,500

  • Hybrid heat pump: $1,200–$3,500

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.

You can and should vent the gas from your hot water heater to the outside of your home. Traditionally, these gases were vented back to other gas appliances, like stoves or furnaces, but many jurisdictions have outlawed this practice due to the risks it provides. 

Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.
