"Got ripped off...do not use this company without an estimate, remember companies can get anyone to write a review to say how great they are, last week they charged $839.00 for a simple plastic 1/2" pipe repair in Fenwick, De. I was not there, my daughter was. So be warned - part of the bill said $360 - to lay down drop cloth, open hole in drywall, and sweep up. I called them 3 times, and sent an email, no one would call me back, this was before I posted anything negative - so be warned. CWO"

"I was recommended to McCrea in 2018 for a new furnace and a/c. From the very beginning I was impressed by their promptness, delivery of estimates and ability to accommodate my schedule. They did a great job and the system they recommended for me worked out perfectly for my home. I was so happy that I contacted them again in 2019 to replace my hot water heater. To save time I was able to send pictures of my existing unit and they were able to provide an estimate within the hour. The estimate was competitive and McCrea was at my house the next day 10 mins before start time. I highly recommend them and would call them again."

If you're looking for heating and cooling services or expertise in Selbyville, look no further than Red Dog Cooling, Heating & Plumbing. Our staff has more than 25 years of experience in the HVAC/Plumbing field across a full range of HVAC products, maintenance, technology you name it. We do professional, quality work for everything we do so you can enjoy a more comfortable home.

"The Red Dog technician determined that my air conditioning was not working due to the refrigerant having leaked out. He then proceeded to recharge the system without providing an estimated cost for the recharging, attempting to find the leak or advising me of his intentions. He then presented me with a bill for $960.00 for the 8lbs of refrigerant that he installed. I would not have authorized that work had I been given a cost estimate and have had knowledge of what work he was performing. The system still has the leak and needs repaired and recharged again. Also, I priced the refrigerant on Ebay for $17lb that he charged me $120lb. My basis for a complaint is that he did the temporary repair without my permission and without my knowledge of the expected cost. I would have most certainly rather put the $960 toward a new system than recharge a system that is leaking given the choice. I was totally ripped off. He just wanted to get the most money he could as quick as he could without any regard for doing the right thing. He has absolutely no integrity in my opinion. Stay away."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Standard electric water heaters (about 40 gallons) typically need a 30-amp circuit breaker. But if you have a newer model, a tankless water heater, or one that’s more energy efficient, you’ll likely need a higher amperage to power it. 

Having the right size circuit breaker for your water heater is an important part of making sure it heats water efficiently and runs safely. A licensed electrician can help you navigate your options, and determine what you need for your new water heater. 

Water expands when heated and also when freezing. When water is heated, it expands by around 4%. For a full water heater, this is one of the main reasons malfunctions occur—the hot water has nowhere else to go but out. Due to the constant expansion and reduction in volume, it’s recommended (required in most places) that an expansion tank be installed.

Unusual noises, lack of hot water supply, efficiency loss, and visible leaks are signs of necessary replacement beyond mere repair.

Water heaters seldom ever burst, but when they do, you should know the warning signs to protect your home. The biggest sign that your water heater is about to burst is a sulfuric smell. If your home inexplicably smells like rotten eggs, then this could be an indication of a gas leak in your gas water heater. If gas leaks out of the unit, it could ignite and cause an explosion, so you should immediately shut off the gas and call a plumber near you to inspect your water heater.

How long a water heater lasts depends on the type. A conventional tanked water heater has an average lifespan of eight to 12 years. Tankless models typically last a little longer, anywhere from 10 to 15 years. Regular maintenance can help you extend the life of your water heater and keep operating costs in check.
