"Nervous about hiring someone we were unfamiliar with upfront, so grateful we made this choice...Wild Water Plumbing is now our go-to company! Justin is wonderful, he is very knowledgeable, works hard, is thorough and takes the time to answer any and all questions. He installed a new water heater and water softening unit to our specifications and the pricing was right, his response time was excellent and he warranted his work without question. A very pleasant young man and a pleasure to work with, he came back a few weeks later to verify the water quality of the units he installed and we have already had him assist with other plumbing issues around the house!"

"Ryan was a knowledgeable, punctual professional who showed up less than an hour after my no hot water call. He was in and out and had the heating element I needed on hand which was great. Had hot water working again before he left. 100% recommend OConnell Plumbing to anyone in the local Jacksonville area."

"Crew was prompt and thorough. I told them what I wanted and what the future plans were for the installation, and they walked me through several options. Their work passed county inspection the first time. I have already used them again since on another project."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Most hot water heater manufacturers recommend replacing the anode rod about once every three to five years. Anode rods sacrifice themselves by collecting iron, limestone, and other minerals that would otherwise corrode your hot water heater tank. This abuse wears them out long before your water heater does. Check the rod when you remove it and replace it if more than 50% of the metal has been consumed. Check the rod more frequently if you have hard water or use a water softener. 

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

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.

A tankless water heater can last up to 20 years, which is nearly double the lifespan of a conventional tank heater. However, their longevity is highly dependent on several factors. With proper installation and regular maintenance, such as descaling to prevent mineral buildup from hard water, you can expect a lifespan of 15 to 20 years. Without proper care, a tankless unit may begin to fail in as little as 12 years. Other factors that affect its lifespan include household usage and the quality of the local water supply. While they have a higher upfront cost, their energy savings, smaller size, and longer life make them a worthwhile investment for many homeowners.

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.
