"It was a wonderful experience. Travis was wonderful. He fixed my AC and it was a cheaper price. He was great and a life saver. He was really professional and polite. He responded to me very quickly."

We replaced an aging, inefficient HVAC unit with a new high-efficiency system to improve cooling performance and energy savings. The original unit was outdated, sitting low to the ground, with declining performance and airflow issues caused by poor drainage and landscaping.
In-progress installation of a high-efficiency air handler and furnace system. Wiring in place, connected to updated ductwork with adjacent water heater visible. Clean layout and spacing prepared for final paneling and system test.

"Dyllan did a great job! He came to the house early. He actually woke me up! I was given a quote to replace the angle stop valves on two toilets and a sink. While Dyllan was working on the project, he found out that the main water shut off valve didn't work. He explained what needed to be done to fix the problem and gave me another quote for that. I agreed for the additional work to be done and I'm completely satisfied! I would certainly recommend Cardinal Plumbing. Thanks again Dyllan!"

"The job was done very well and on time. They also had helpful suggestions along the way. Matins not only replaced the septic system, they also did concrete work and replaced the house. All of their work was done very well. They are also very friendly, professional, and easy to work with. I highly recommend them!"

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

It takes between one and three hours to replace a hot water heater element, depending on whether you hire a pro or do the work yourself. For example, a professional plumber with all the necessary tools and experience can often finish the job in one to two hours, whereas DIY will take two to three hours because it'll involve more preparation and troubleshooting.

Several signs indicate your water heater may be failing or in need of replacement. Key indicators include:

  • Age: A water heater older than ten years is approaching the end of its typical lifespan.

  • Water Quality: If you notice rusty or discolored water from your hot water faucets, or a foul odor similar to rotten eggs or sulfur, it can signal internal corrosion.

  • Unusual Noises: Banging, rumbling, or popping sounds from the tank often mean sediment has built up, causing the unit to overheat.

  • Leaks: Any water pooling around the base of the tank or visible leaks are clear signs of failure.

  • Performance Issues: A decline in performance, such as water not getting hot enough, taking longer to heat up, low water pressure, or decreased efficiency, suggests the unit is struggling.

  • Visible Damage: Obvious rust and corrosion on the exterior of the tank can indicate a more serious internal problem.

While these signs often point to replacement, some issues may be fixable. It's best to consult a professional plumber to diagnose the problem before investing in a new unit.

Professional installs conclude in mere hours, with complexity differences possibly prolonging efforts slightly. Site condition often dictates the exact duration.

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.

Tankless water heaters are more expensive than those with a storage tank, but they come with some impressive benefits that most homeowners find worth the higher investment. Most importantly, they provide unlimited hot water, so you’ll never run out like you would with a storage tank. Tankless heaters are also more efficient, so comparing gallon-for-gallon, you’ll spend less on hot water with a tankless heater. Tankless water heaters are also smaller, require less maintenance, and tend to last longer than storage tank water heaters.
