"Matthew came to do a free inspection of my plumbing.  He noticed some water under the kitchen sink and gave us a very reasonable estimate for that repair.  We ultimately decided to replace the sink and faucet, as the whole setup wasn't in great shape.  Matthew came the next day and did the job; he was punctual and professional, and he did an excellent job.  We are very pleased with how it turned out.

"When I called to schedule my service after our hot water heater suddenly started malfunctioning, the customer service agent was friendly and helpful. She set up an appointment for as soon as possible to get a technician out to examine the heater. I appreciated that they gave me just an hour-long window for when they would be coming, since some companies give you four or five hour windows when you need to be waiting by your phone at home. The two technicians arrived on time and called in advance to let me know they were coming. The main technician seemed knowledgeable and he walked me through all of my options. They had the heater installed the same day in a reasonable amount of time. I could tell that he took care in his work because he re-examined the hot water heater after he installed it to make sure it wasn't leaking. He also offered me extra services that where related to problems we were having (hard water). We weren't planning on having a water filter installed, but he let us know that it could help with the high iron content in our water, which could have been putting a strain on the hot water heater.
I only have two small complaints about the company. The Angie's List coupon, which was one of the main reasons I chose their services, is actually only for ONE service. I let the customer service agent know that I had a coupon up front, but she never told me that it was only for one service. I didn't find out that I could only use it on the largest item on my bill until the technician walked me through the services that I was about to authorize him for. I didn't argue over the price since it was still a good deal, but I think the coupon was misleading since it did not specify that it was on one item only. The other complaint is that I was told that I could get an iron filter for the house, but the technician later said that they did not carry them at the supply warehouse. I feel like he should have been aware of that. I would use their services again and was pleased, but the coupon fine print needs to be added for sure. This is why I put a C for professionalism, because I didn't know where else to categorize this oversight."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Yes, hybrid water heaters can be noisy — noisier than traditional water heaters. The sound they produce is often compared to the hum of a dishwasher. Its noise comes from the heat pump’s fan and compressor as they work to pull in and compress the air. While it’s not totally disruptive, especially if the unit is installed in less frequented areas, like a basement or garage, it’s something to keep in mind if you’re sensitive to noise or if the unit will be placed near bedrooms or living spaces.

Traditional gas or electric water heaters last an average of six to 11 years. However, with excellent maintenance, they can last up to 15 years. Heat pump water heaters, on the other hand, last an average of between 12 and 15 years and potentially longer with proper maintenance. In both cases, your home's water quality can be a determining factor regarding the lifespan of your water heater.

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. 

If your water heater is about to celebrate the big 2-0, you may want to consider sending it off to greener pastures. While the water heater may seem to be working well, any conventional, tanked water heater over 10 years of age is at risk of failure. If your water heater is 20 years or older, your best move is to replace your aging heater before it completely breaks down.

If your system is not vented properly, you could experience what’s called backdrafting. Backdrafting is when your ventilation system isn’t working as it should, and instead of releasing gases outside, they get trapped inside your home. 

Gas and propane water heaters create a few types of combustion gases, but the most dangerous is carbon monoxide. If there’s too much build-up of these gases inside your home, it can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
