"The service went very well. I called and asked if a plumber could come and change our expansion tank off of our hot water heater and was told that the plumber would be there between 1 and 3. About 15 minutes before 1, the plumber called and asked if he could come by. The service at the house went well and he used buckets and towels to make sure he didn't spill water everywhere. The water that did drip on our garage floor was cleaned up before he left. They accept credit cards and are very professional, I'd use them again! "
"Contacted Northline Plumbing & Heating with an emergency request which was promptly. The technician was Mike who came prepared to do the job and made the necessary repairs very fast. Northline is great and I will surely hire them again."
"We pay yearly but we have this is included with our rental property. They are pretty good on most things. We had a hot water heater replaced and they did an excellent job on that. They are very quick on their response. They dont come out here. It is all done on the internet. I just like the idea that one time service charge is so much better than trying to hiring someone to come in. It is more about convenience. It pays for itself."

No. Expansion tanks must be installed on the supply side (where heated water flows out) of the boiler. There’s also a list of other requirements for most boilers, including being above the pressure relief valves, being on the inner side of any circulator, and more. Your installation manual should have more information on expansion tank installation requirements and what sort of tank the system is made for.
Examples include gas stoves, ovens, and water heaters. Confirm with your provider for specific items.
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.
Due to the high temperature, using stainless steel vent pipes for your tankless water heater’s exhaust vent is best. Also, it is safe to use a flexible vent duct as the exhaust fan. If installing the exhaust fan yourself, make sure you are using heat-resistant silicon to connect the exhaust vent and the duct on your water heater.
The time it takes to install or replace a water heater depends on the type of heater and the complexity of the job. A professional can typically replace a standard tank-style water heater in one to three hours. However, if the work area is tight, such as a small closet or crawl space, the job could take four to five hours. Replacing an existing tankless unit takes about two to three hours, while upgrading from a tank-style to a tankless water heater is more complex and can take four to six hours. The project will take longer if you are switching fuel sources, such as installing a gas heater which can add about an hour to the timeline, or if the unit needs to be relocated.
