EPA Certified Hvac licensed OSHA certified 7 years experience get the owner at your door not just a worker! Affordable and quality is what we strive for!

"We called to have a heat pump installed, and we got an electric heat system. We have a 119 year old 2 story farmhouse that we are still repairing. We contacted him and they did show up early, however, the workers he had employed at the time did not do much and he was not there to supervise them. It took four days to get it all installed. We have already had to have the unit repaired because the wrong wiring was used, there is no overflow spot so that the condensation does not leak onto our floor. We have to now figure out how to afford replacing this with the correct unit we had originally asked for because he is not willing to help where he messed up. I do not recommend this company because they are not very professional, and do not communicate at all. We were basically told "You are SOL and stuck with what you have." We did not ask for what we received, and he will not fix his mistake."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Yes, hybrid water heaters can be noisy — noisier than traditional water heaters. The sound they produce is often compared to the hum of a dishwasher. Its noise comes from the heat pump’s fan and compressor as they work to pull in and compress the air. While it’s not totally disruptive, especially if the unit is installed in less frequented areas, like a basement or garage, it’s something to keep in mind if you’re sensitive to noise or if the unit will be placed near bedrooms or living spaces.

A thermocouple is a pretty simple device. It simply tells the control valve if heat is present. Most water heaters can use a universal thermocouple, provided it's the correct length. Getting one that's long enough for your appliance is crucial for success. However, some water heater models require model-specific thermocouples, which is why it's essential to take your existing one to the store to find the right match.

Choosing between an electric water heater vs. a gas water heater comes down to personal preference. Overall, electric heaters are more energy efficient than their gas competitors. They’re also quieter to operate, take up less room, and don’t come with a risk of gas leaks. 

The downside is that electric water heaters cost more to operate than gas. They might also struggle to heat water fast enough for households that use large amounts of hot water. Lastly, a power outage could cause your electric water heater to stop working, whereas gas water heaters may still function.

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.

Often, the first issue you might encounter is a lack or loss of power—this could be caused by a tripped switch or a failed heating element. If your hot water is not producing enough power and its size is not the issue, you might need to replace one of its heating elements. A leaking water heater could be caused by tank erosion.
