"What I liked about water heater plus is that the person I contacted clearly explained all of the options to me. He did not try to convince me to take any route in particular; he encouraged me to do what would be best for me financially at the time. I ended up replacing my old water heater and I think that was the best decision. The technician efficiently replaced my old water heater."

"Very knowledgeable and replaced both inside and outside units in what was the coldest and wettest day. Obviously mud and water was an issue but, they came back the next day and cleaned everything up. I would highly recommend them for any of your heating or air conditioning work."

"Dwight from Double Wrench provided excellent service. I was not getting hot water to my motherâ s bathtub in her home yet I was getting hot water everywhere else. Because her equipment was generic and not a name brand it was difficult to determine what was needed. DDP replaced all the necessary equipment and put an access panel in for future needs. Great work and great price with prompt service."

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. 

Electric water heaters do not need an attached vent, but the location of the water heater should allow for roughly 12 inches of clearance around it. This allows cool air to flow around the appliance and allows repair technicians to work on its components safely. The exact amount of clearance space required depends on your local building codes.

If you are having trouble determining the right breaker size for your water heater, it is a great idea to contact an electrician near you to help. They can help you determine the best option for your home and install the circuit breaker for you, ensuring that you have all the proper permits and that your circuit breaker won’t overload, which could lead to fire and other damage.

Every type of water heater has its advantages and disadvantages. Understanding those can help you decide the best type for your situation and budget.

  • Safer than gas or propane

  • Doesn’t require extensive venting systems

  • Lower upfront costs

  • Simpler to operate

  • No pilot light

  • Easier installation

  • More efficient heating than gas models

  • Available as point-of-use (POU) and whole-house units

Cons

  • Slower to heat water

  • Longer recovery time

  • Possibly higher operating costs

  • Doesn’t work during a power outage

  • Costs can increase without a 240-volt connection

Any item that can hold on to moisture and encourage mold growth should be discarded and replaced following water damage. Upholstered items, such as armchairs and couches, and soft items, such as mattresses, usually must be thrown away once they've taken on a lot of water. Soft furniture is difficult to dry out, creating an inviting environment for mold.

You may also need to replace hardwood furniture following water damage if you're unable to fully dry it out. If you have appliances and electronics that have been fully submerged in water, particularly sewage, you'll need to replace those, too.
