"I purchased a Generac standby generator from AirSouth in July of 2022. I was assured that this standby generator would power my home in the invent of a power outage. When the generator was installed, there was a problem with this brand-new generator, and they had to order a new main board because the generator was not charging. I was concerned about this, but the generator had a five-year warranty, and they explain sometime equipment have bad parts. AirSouth assure me that they would do regular maintenance to make sure this generator was performing as expected. WHICH THEY DID NOT DO! The first time we experienced a power outage was on Friday 06/16/23 the generator came on for about one and half hours and shut off. I called AirSouth and they sent a technician out that spent about 25 minutes out here and told my husband that the main board had went out and they would have to order one and it would not be in until Tuesday 06/20/23. I paid 13,822 for a backup generator that did not work the first time it was needed. When I called AirSouth to ask to speak to a manager or someone in charge I was told they were on another call and was not able to take my call. I than explained to Denise that I would not allow any repairs to this generator, and I needed them to replace it because obviously there is a defect with this generator if the generator requires three main boards in less than a year. She explained to me that they would only be able to repair this unit not replace it. AirSouth showed no concern for me or my family after I had paid them for this generator. I only make about 40,000 a year so this was a huge investment for me. They were total unconcerned that this was a brand new system that had never been use. They seem to think it was ok that I would have to wait four days during a power outage to use a generator that I paid them to install and had never had cause to use. Right now, I am feeling as through I have been scammed because I made the decision to invest this large amount of money for the security of my family and when the power went out, we were in the same position as everyone else, no power. My husband had to go and pay $400 for a portable generator to get us through the weekend. Bad business!! This was the perfect opportunity for the advertisement of not only Generac but also AirSouth due to the fact everyone in the area was hot and frustrated. My family, friends and I'm sure my neighbors were aware that I had recently had the Generac installed, and because AirSouth do the huge advertisement on their vehicles they were aware of who did the install. Epic failure, because when the power went out, everyone witness the fact that after paying for this generator I was still in the same situation as everyone else, NO POWER! I should have just stayed with the portable generator. It would have be much, much cheaper! A week later and they are still making excuses."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

When wondering what size of breaker for a water heater is appropriate, the majority of hot water heaters need a 30-amp, two-pole breaker. Most residential water heaters use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts. If your appliance matches these measurements, a 30-amp breaker is likely perfect. Owners of point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts often find that a 30-amp breaker is adequate. Water heaters that use more watts than average may need a 40-amp breaker. Smaller units that use fewer watts could potentially use a 20-amp breaker.

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.

If your water heater continues to have issues, you may wonder how long an electric water heat lasts. On average, these units last between 10 to 15 years. Following a proper maintenance schedule can help the water heater live to the end of its average lifespan or longer.

Standard electric water heaters (about 40 gallons) typically need a 30-amp circuit breaker. But if you have a newer model, a tankless water heater, or one that’s more energy efficient, you’ll likely need a higher amperage to power it. 

Having the right size circuit breaker for your water heater is an important part of making sure it heats water efficiently and runs safely. A licensed electrician can help you navigate your options, and determine what you need for your new water heater. 

Unless you have previous plumbing experience or extensive experience with water heaters, you should avoid replacing your electric water heater yourself. This process involves disconnecting wiring and parts from the old water heater and reinstalling them onto the new one, among other difficult tasks. This job is best left to the pros to make sure that everything is connected correctly to avoid serious leaks or malfunctions.
