"Beware of shipping issues with this company. Ordered an ice maker installation kit on 10/10/25. Shipping was due no later than 10/20 according to company and FedEx tracking. FedEx tracking showed the package at their facility for 8 days without moving beginning on 10/15. Called FedEx 3 times. Each time they said they cannot find package and I have to contact shipper. Shipper has to make a claim, they will not mark it as lost. Called Appliance Parts Pros twice. Each time they say FedEx has to mark package lost before they will do anything. They also state they have to wait 14 days from them before doing anything because of their contract with FedEx. I don't care about their contract, I want what was ordered and paid for. Just going in circles with them and FedEX. If they shipped after 14 days it would be 22 days from that point, 32 days from the date of order if they shipped it that day.

"Bartholomew did very poor work and greatly overcharged for installing a pellet stove, a very simple job. We waited a long time for them to come and do it, although the actual work took a very short time. They did not even plug in the stove or run it to see if it worked properly, and did not complete the required certificate as certified installer to prove the stove was installed to code and operating properly. We just failed the first inspection attempt, as inspector said that information was required to be onsite at time of inspection and Bartholomew knew (or should know) that. Reinspection fee now required, and another long delay to get completion. Bartholomew was very slapdash and unprofessional. I do not recommend them."

"This is one of the most unprofessional companies I have dealt with. In June of 2021 GLP&H installed a faucet for me. That $200 faucet worked for 5 months before it broke. When I called to have it fixed in January of 2022, our plumber (Eldon) came out and explained they installed an old faucet in error. The old faucet was placed in a new faucet box which is usually sent out, however in my situation it was unintentionally installed. When Eldon took the faucet apart you could see it was an old faucet and he apologized and installed new one. Fast forward 8 months to August 2022. The new faucet has snapped. The company gives you a year warranty on the products they install. I called asking for a replacement since it's only been 8 months. I was advised the warranty had expired. How is that possible I just had it installed. Well ma'am when we installed the old one, your warranty started then so the new one we installed only had a 6 month warranty. I am sorry that is not how warranties work. I have been more then patient, especially after your people ADMITTED to installing the incorrect faucet, and now you are telling me you won't fix it because the warranty is expired. Absolutely not. When I called to talk to the manager, he was less then friendly and unwilling to make it right. I advised you I would purchase my own faucet and have your company install it you stated that wouldn't work for you. For a business that prides itself in being a family company you sure don't help your customers. I will await a response and a date when you can come install my new faucet."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

No state requires you to vent an electric water heater. Other installation requirements for water heaters will vary, though, depending on the state and local jurisdiction in which you live. Some places require permits, while others don’t. Some may force you to place the appliance a certain distance from any walls or other appliances, while others don't. When you find a local professional to install a water heater, this expert will ensure you follow all the local regulations.

The good news is that most home warranty plans cover hot water heaters, regardless of whether you have a tank or a tankless model. Your hot water heater should be covered by your home warranty because it's considered an essential home appliance.

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.

When the water expands in a hot water heater, it puts pressure on your hot water pipes and can cause leaks or a rupture in the hot water tank under certain conditions. Pipes or water heaters may split due to the pressure where there is a backflow preventer that prevents the hot water heater from diffusing pressure by releasing water back to the public water line.

In these scenarios, a hot water heater expansion tank provides a place for the hot water heater to relieve pressure and prevent bursts and leaks.

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.
