"We had them replace plumbing fixtures in our bathroom remodel and install in-line water heater to provide point of use hot water to a distant bathroom from our water heater. In addition, they replaced a deteriorating concrete laundry tub and replaced a shut-off valve for an outdoor water faucet that was leaking."

"I needed to have this changed before the new stove was installed in a couple of days and thought I could have the ceiling fan in one of the rooms replaced (since they charge a trip fee, I wanted to take advantage of it and they were having a deal for 99.00 ceiling fan installation. Richard installed 2 new outlets and the ceiling fan in just under 3 hours. I believed the price to be reasonable but I didn't have much to compare that to because honestly there is something to be said for piece of mind, and confidence in the person doing this kind of work. I am an Angie's List Member and I contacted Randy's Electric via the Angie's List app on a Sunday and received a quick reply from Courtney ON A SUNDAY! They were able to get me on the schedule very quickly. The service is excellent! Richard was actually the electrician who came back to the house again to help with this project. As a female home owner, I have been subject to some companies (particularly a large local company that "specializes" in HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical) taking advantage of my lack of knowledge or understanding but this is not the case with Randy's. Richard walked through my options, offered suggestions and showed me what he had done when he finished. Great service, great company, you will have a customer for life, because lets face it, my house was built in the 40's- this won't be the first time I need electrical help!"

"Called them on Monday morning because water heater was discharging. By early afternoon Jon showed up. Diagnosed problem to be related to very high water pressure (nearly 80 psi). Installed pressure reduction valve and pressure tank. I had called water heater manufacturer and this was the remedy they suggested so I knew Jon was doing what was recommended. However, within a few hours the tank again discharged lots of hot water. I called Jon and he arranged for a new control component to be sent under warranty by the manufacturer. Early Wednesday morning Jon installed the new component and we thought all was well. However Thursday morning found hot water flowing from the discharge pipe once again. Notified Jon and he returned and installed a new overflow valve. He also rigged up PVC pipe to direct water to the drain in the event it happened again. It has been over a week now and the water heater seems to be performing as it should. While I was not happy that it took multiple tries to fix the darn thing, I know Jon was following the recommended protocols and did so in a professional manner. He was very responsive and empathetic. He checked in with me numerous time to see if there we problems. He was genuinely interested in solving the problem and eventually did."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

The right way to vent a gas water heater is to have a pipe directly upward or slopes upward out of the house. Because hot air naturally rises, this type of venting will efficiently ensure that all gas moves out of the house. Your system may rely on fans or blowers as well.

A single shower consumes an average of over 17 gallons, while brushing your teeth with the water running uses up to four unnecessary gallons. Watering the lawn spreads hundreds of gallons of water across the yard each time. Limiting water usage in these areas can significantly cut down your water bill.

If your system is not vented properly, you could experience what’s called backdrafting. Backdrafting is when your ventilation system isn’t working as it should, and instead of releasing gases outside, they get trapped inside your home. 

Gas and propane water heaters create a few types of combustion gases, but the most dangerous is carbon monoxide. If there’s too much build-up of these gases inside your home, it can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

While a water heater explosion is rare, it is a serious danger. Be aware of these critical warning signs:

  • Sulfur or Rotten Egg Smell: This is a major red flag, especially for gas water heaters. It can indicate a gas leak, which could ignite and cause an explosion.

  • Leaking Pressure Valve: If the temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve is leaking, it may not be able to properly regulate internal pressure, creating a risk of bursting.

  • Shaking or Rumbling: Loud rumbling or shaking from the tank can be a sign of extreme pressure buildup.

  • Excessive Heat: If the exterior of the water heater feels unusually hot to the touch, the unit may be overheating dangerously.

  • Rust-Colored Water: This can be a symptom of severe internal corrosion that compromises the tank's integrity.

If you notice any of these signs, especially a gas smell, you must act immediately. Shut off the gas supply to the water heater and call a professional plumber right away to prevent a potential disaster.

Every type of water heater has its advantages and disadvantages. Understanding those can help you decide the best type for your situation and budget.
