Q: What’s the best place in my house for a hybrid water heater?

• <div><p>Basements, specifically those without any air conditioning, are the best location for a hybrid water heater. These rooms are less likely to experience extreme temperature fluctuations, which can affect your hybrid water heater&rsquo;s efficiency and performance. Basements often have more than enough space for their tanks and proper air circulation. Hybrid water heaters can also be a bit noisy, but putting them in your basement will keep the noise away from your main living areas.</p></div>

Q: Are tankless water heaters better than traditional water heaters?

• <div><p>There are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-pros-and-cons-tankless-water-heaters.htm">pros and cons to tankless water heaters</a>. They are more efficient than traditional tank water heaters, and maintenance costs are lower. These units are also much more compact.

Q: What are some common issues with a water heater?

• <div><p>Often, the first issue you might encounter is a lack or loss of power&mdash;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. </p></div>

Q: Can you switch to a tankless water heater from a heater with a tank?

• <div><p>Yes, you can replace a current tank water heater with a tankless model or vice versa. If you&rsquo;re maintaining the same fuel source&mdash;gas or electricity&mdash;the switchover should be smooth. A conventional tank requires open floor space, while a tankless model can be wall-mounted. If you&rsquo;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.</p></div>

"Keith punctual and professional. He explained what caused the clog and how to remove the hair from the drain. Then he explained that Drano was not helping the problem and only made this worst. My clogged issue was never going away with Drano. This was good information. He was told me what to use if the drain became clogged again. I was very grateful that he took the time to explain everything and gave advise as to what would unclog the drain,if another clog happened. I will definitely call Kevin again for any plumbing issues I may have in the future. Thank you!!"
