"Justin came within a half an hour of my phone call, and he worked the rest of the day taking out the old water heater and installing a brand new one. He demonstrated expert workmanship and excellent knowledge of all aspects of installing a gas water heater. It was a wonderful experience and I would definitely call this company if anyone needs emergency service with a leaking old water heater. :-)"

"Chase responding almost immediately after I posted the job. He was personable and professional. We scheduled the job at a time that suited both our calendars. He showed up, did the job to my satisfaction, removed the old water heater, arranged for the inspector, and I'm very happy. I will definitely use Mil-Spec again!"

"We had a water pressure issued and called NCPDService. Igor and Thiago came out the very next day and fixed the problem. They were professional, knowledgeable, timely, and reasonably priced. We inquired about a new water pressure tank and filtration system to ensure no further issues with our water pressure. Their cost estimate was much better than the local competitor for the same product and service. We will definitely be using them for our future needs and would not hesitate to recommend NCPDService to friends and family."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

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

Pros

  • Safer than gas or propane

  • Doesn’t require extensive venting systems

  • Lower upfront costs

  • Simpler to operate

  • No pilot light

  • Easier installation

  • More efficient heating than gas models

  • Available as point-of-use (POU) and whole-house units

Cons

  • Slower to heat water

  • Longer recovery time

  • Possibly higher operating costs

  • Doesn’t work during a power outage

  • Costs can increase without a 240-volt connection

Every city and state will have its own set of installation codes and laws. Some won’t require you to obtain a permit before replacing your water heater, though we recommend you do, regardless of the local codes. On the other hand, some cities and states might require secondary permits for plumbing and electrical work related to the installation. Check with a local water heater installation company and local building codes to confirm which permits are required and what the specific laws are.

Water heater installation code requirements are in place to keep your family and home safe. Water heaters that are installed wrong can simply not work. However, that's an, if you're lucky, type of situation. More commonly, incorrectly installed water heaters pose a real threat from carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, water leaks, and even explosions. 

Yes, you can replace a current tank water heater with a tankless model or vice versa. If you’re maintaining the same fuel source—gas or electricity—the switchover should be smooth. A conventional tank requires open floor space, while a tankless model can be wall-mounted. If you’re switching to a tank water heater, you might need to clear space for it. Gas-powered tankless water heaters need a large volume of gas when they start running to heat the water instantly. You might need to increase the size of the gas line when going from a tank to a tankless model.

A leaking water heater could potentially last for a few weeks or months before you need to repair it. However, it's not advisable to wait too long. Once your water heater starts leaking, it's likely that the underlying cause of the leak is getting worse as time goes on. Without immediate repair, your water heater could fail. Instead of using a leaky water heater, you should turn it off and call a pro to fix it.
