Branch Brothers Plumbing was created in 1987 when brothers Bruce and David Branch had a dream of offering superior plumbing services to the community. The brothers took a risk, motivated by the hard times of the mid 80's, and opened a business account with just $70. That $70 was just the beginning, and it allowed Branch Brothers Plumbing to flourish into a successful and dependable company that is still growing and offering quality service at a fair and affordable price. Today we continue to be a family owned and operated business with second generation son Bruce Branch Jr. involved in day-to-day operations. The Branch brothers are dedicated family men who continue to honor the basic life principles that GOD provided for us all. We take pride in the fact that our company is close knit and dedicated from top-to-bottom to our customers and our service quality.

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

If you are having trouble determining the right breaker size for your water heater, it is a great idea to contact an electrician near you to help. They can help you determine the best option for your home and install the circuit breaker for you, ensuring that you have all the proper permits and that your circuit breaker won’t overload, which could lead to fire and other damage.

Venting a gas water heater out of the roof is preferable in most cases. Heated exhaust gases naturally rise, so a vertical vent pipe is efficient. If you’re trying to vent through a pipe exiting a wall, the angle of the pipe may be more horizontal than vertical, making the venting system less effective. If you go through a wall, you may need to add a fan to ensure a successful expulsion of the gases outdoors.
