Comfort Master Inc. Opened in 1984 servicing Poplar Bluff and the surrounding areas.

"I have a complaint on Comfort Master at 1645 Hwy. B Poplar Bluff, MO 63901. This past spring, I had signed a contract with them to service my air conditioner in the spring and my gas fireplace in the fall. I never heard from them to set up an appointment to service the fireplace so I called them. They told me that was my gas fireplace was not part of the contract. The service tech that signed me up said it was. I asked them for a refund on the fall portion since it was not going to be honored. They started laughing at me and said I'm not getting anything back. They told me I was screwed when I signed the contract in which they screwed me out of $67.50. Also in August of this year, I had to call them to come out and check my air conditioner. They came for out for 3 minutes, did absolutely nothing but tell me it was blowing cold air and charged me a service call of $59.00. Last year, my brother had the same contract problem with them except they never came out to check his heat but they sent him a bill for the following years contract. These people are taking advantage of customers and need to reported before they screw someone else out of money and end up hurt."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

No, you’ll need to drain the tank before changing a water heater element, as the water heater element sticks through the side of the tank and uses a gasket to prevent water from pouring out. However, you don’t always need to drain it completely. If you’re only replacing the upper heating element, you can drain the tank until the water line is below the element. If you’re replacing the lower element, you’ll need to drain the whole thing.

The average cost to replace a water heater is $1,325. How much your replacement heater costs depends on the type, size, and complexity of installation. Gas and electric heaters may cost a similar amount out of pocket, but one type may cost more to operate than the other, depending on the cost of utilities in your area.

It is very difficult and dangerous to install your own water heater, so we strongly recommend against tackling this as a DIY project. Not only will you need to wire your water heater, but you’ll also need to connect plumbing to the intake and outlet. Sweating copper pipes and connecting wiring properly are skills most DIYers don’t have, and even if you do feel confident you can do it, working with water and electricity always leaves the potential for electrocution. Hiring a local water heater installer is well worth the investment.

If your gas water heater is over 20 years old, it should be replaced. Gas water heaters can last up to 12 years and while they can exceed this expectancy if well-maintained, a heater that's 20 years old would require replacement. The heater is unlikely to run as efficiently as a new model and could be more expensive to do so.

The size needed for your expansion tank is determined by the size of your home's water heater. Expansion tanks are available in 2-gallon and 4.5-gallon sizes. A 2-gallon tank will be appropriate for water heaters up to 50 gallons. An adequately sized tank should have a volume that equals 2% to 5% of the water volume within the system. A plumber can evaluate your home's water pressure, water heater size, and other factors to provide suggestions for picking out the best expansion tank.
