"It went perfect. They were the first to call me the next day when my water heater was out of commission. They came earlier than expected (a good thing), Bruce was super professional and nice, was quick and quiet while he worked. And when he was done, he showed me what I needed to do in the future so I wouldn't run into this problem in the future! I would give 10 stars out of 5 if I could."

"My God! Dan came out this morning, I explained what was done, he went to work on it right away! My furnace stopped working December 25th, 2024, no heat till today! Keep in mind, the last technician I hired in January 2025, charged me 240 dollars for 20 minutes analysis just to tell me I need new furnace and AC central, my AC works beautifully. Then I used 4 space heaters to keep my house warm! Man my electric bill was over 400 dollars the first month and climbing higher each coming months till Spring arrived! I hired B & D Plumbing and Heater Co. to come out and finish the job. It was a gentleman name Dan, he did an extremely awesome job, telling me the details, explaining everything I needed to knowledge. And now the furnace works about as good as it gets beautifully. The impressive part, he took his sweet time. And the most impressive part was when he presented my total bill! I was about to have a major heart attack when I saw the bill! It wasn’t through the roof bill! Cheap cheap"

"I was going to have some work done to my basement and needed the water heater moved. It was time replace the heater so I asked Northern if they could remove the heater and install the new one the next day. They were fine with that. The workers were very professional and friendly. The installer took the time to explain all the controls and maintenance. Very pleased with results"

"Matthews plumbing did a fantastic job repairing our water heater. Matt quickly returned our request for a service call. He went above and beyond by gathering any possible parts before coming to diagnosis the issue to ensure it was fixed on the same call. I would highly recommend Matthews plumbing to anyone who is having any issues."

"They were great.  They're awesome.  The people who lived here before me had incorrectly sealed the electrical box outside so water had gotten inside.  They cleaned out that area because there was some corrosion in there, and they replaced one of the breakers.  I thought it was a little expensive because I don't think they were there that long, but I know electricians are expensive.  I had an emergency, so I had a number of electrical outlets that were out, including in my master bedroom, and so I did pay an emergency fee to have them come out, but they came out that same day like they said they were going to.  I left the keys, so they came when they were supposed to."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

A tankless water heater with a flow rate of 10 GPM should replace a conventional 50-gallon water heater. To avoid a surprise cold shower or two and to keep your energy costs in check, it's important to replace a conventional tanked water heater with the equivalent tankless water heater. Your household size and the number of hot-water-using devices you use at once can help you determine the best-size tankless water heater.

Examples include gas stoves, ovens, and water heaters. Confirm with your provider for specific items.

Unless they are connected to the same system, boilers and water heaters will both need their own expansion tanks. The only case they wouldn’t have separate expansion tanks is if the boiler is pulling double duty and managing a heating system while also supplying hot water for a home. In which case, you may not need a hot water heater.

A well-maintained hot water recirculating pump can last 5 to 15 years. Pumps that run continuously may have a shorter lifespan than demand-controlled models. Hard water can reduce longevity by causing mineral buildup in the pump and pipes. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, can extend the pump’s lifespan.

One of the primary benefits of a heat pump water heater is how cost-effective it is. How much you save will depend on your water usage and electricity costs. That being said, we can ballpark savings for the average home of between $100 and $500 per year. You can increase that savings rate by researching and applying available energy incentives available in your area. If you really want to focus on cost, consider a tankless water heater.
