"Greg did a wonderful job with replacing our water heater and now works well and looks good. He was able to come in the next day after getting a quote from him. It did take him a whole day just because he didn’t have his helper. Otherwise, good service!"

"Jason and Devin are an awesome father son team. They were referred to me when we needed to cap our propane lines to convert our gas fireplace to pellet. We found more work for them when we had heaters installed in our garage and we needed to extend and connect the LP lines. These guys were organized, professional and kept my project clean. I would highly recommend Hands On Construction to everyone for any plumbing job big or small."

"Long story short our water heater was still working. Someone had left a trickle of hot water run all night and it drained the tank. Two hours later we found out that we had hot water and the repairman didn't change us for the visit."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't recommend Jordan enough! He truly went above and beyond to make sure our home and family were safe. He came out twice, fixed our furnace, tested for carbon monoxide, and even checked our stove and water heater. After all that, he only charged us $100 and even offered us an incredible deal on a new furnace installation! His honesty, professionalism, and genuine care really stood out. It's hard to find someone this trustworthy and dedicated. If you need HVAC services, Jordan is absolutely the person to call! He's earned our trust, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone!"

"I’m not sure how to update my review but I did attach my previous review. I was contacted by TLC field manager and he was very willing to work with me and the insurance. He was very responsive to my concerns. As of now, we’re still waiting for the house to be redone, but TLC was very professional and responsive about this whole ordeal. Description of work: Not sure why we had such bad luck with this company. Let me just start off by saying they have been courteous the whole time but they can’t seem to get the job done. First, we called them for a leak in the master bath. Upon arrival, they found the leak was from a pipe accessible from the living room. So they cut up the drywall and supposedly fixed the leak. We thought, not too bad. Minimal floor damage. Had to file a claim with insurance for the floor damage in masters. So then there was no hot water after the fix, so we had to pay for new water heater. Don’t know if they were the ones who broke it or not. Then in the middle night, the pipe they fixed bursted and now pretty much damaged the floors of the whole living room, hallway, etc. called them back and they “fixed” it but now we see saw marks on the pvc tubing next to the wall where they were sawing. Got another call in for them to come out. Meanwhile, we had to file another insurance claim meaning another deductible out of our pocket not to mention the stress of a water damaged home!"

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

While a water heater explosion is rare, it is a serious danger. Be aware of these critical warning signs:

  • Sulfur or Rotten Egg Smell: This is a major red flag, especially for gas water heaters. It can indicate a gas leak, which could ignite and cause an explosion.

  • Leaking Pressure Valve: If the temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve is leaking, it may not be able to properly regulate internal pressure, creating a risk of bursting.

  • Shaking or Rumbling: Loud rumbling or shaking from the tank can be a sign of extreme pressure buildup.

  • Excessive Heat: If the exterior of the water heater feels unusually hot to the touch, the unit may be overheating dangerously.

  • Rust-Colored Water: This can be a symptom of severe internal corrosion that compromises the tank's integrity.

If you notice any of these signs, especially a gas smell, you must act immediately. Shut off the gas supply to the water heater and call a professional plumber right away to prevent a potential disaster.

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.

The average cost to replace a water heater is around $1,325, with a typical range of $900 to $1,800 for a standard replacement. The final price depends on the type of heater (tank vs. tankless), its size, fuel source (gas or electric), and the complexity of the installation. A simple one-to-one replacement will be on the lower end of the cost spectrum. However, if you are switching from one type of heater or energy source to another, you can expect labor costs to be significantly higher due to the extra work involved. It's also worth considering that while gas and electric heaters may have similar upfront costs, their long-term operating costs can differ based on local utility prices.

Yes, a heat pump water heater can work in colder climates but it’s much more effective where it’s warm. The reason is that the heat pump needs ambient warmth in the air to compress. The less warmth, the more compression required, thus using more electricity and offsetting the energy-efficient benefits.
