"We received estimates from multiple HVAC companies, all the estimates were within a few hundred dollars of each other, and all the companies installed reputable brands of systems. One of the primary decisions to pick this company over the others was due to more favorable financing terms. There was a small snafu with clearance of the water heater exhaust, which was noticed by the technicians before beginning the work. Ultimately, they decided to fix the exhaust issue, which included a lot of extra work, but enabled them to complete the installation of the new furnace within a week that the work was originally scheduled. And they did not charge extra to do this extra work, which is a bonus. The installers, Kyle and Hunter, did a great job, were very knowledgeable, and were very personable/professional. We would highly recommend to others."
Logan A/C & Heat Services offered value, competitive pricing, top of the line Trane equipment, nice financing options that other companies did not offer. Dan was my sales rep that offered the above services. Bobby was the installer & was professional & did a great job. Install was scheduled on a Monday after I committed on a Friday; so very quick!

"I used Plumb Tite to install a tankless water heater. The pricing was straight forward and fair. The service technician was professional and courteous. He showed up on time and cleaned up the workspace afterwards. I would definitely recommend Plumb Tite."

"This is the most professional contractor I have worked with (and I have worked with many) over the last 15 years). They were exceptional from their sales team to their installers and follow-up team after the projects were complete. They made sure I was happy with every aspect of my projects. I feel so fortunate to have gone with them. Of the 6 estimates I received, their total prices for furnaces, AC and water heaters were in the middle of the pack and reasonable. Everything else they did was truly first rate and 5 Stars. Plus their 15 year service warranty is unbeatable in Cincinnati and probably everywhere. I will recommend them to everyone who asks about HVAC and water heaters. Thank you!"

"We had a problem not only with water pressure and but with trying to get a old shower head off. He used several different tools but finally got it off. It was stuck as if someone used gorilla/super glue. He was very professional and gave me several recommendations on other products I might consider. I like his work very much. He wasn't a pushy sales person. I will be calling him back for furture plumbing needs"

"We had a gas hot water heater replaced and installed on 06/12/2020. Chris was polite, courteous, and honest. When we called him, he always answered immediately. There was no waiting for weeks to get the hot water installed. Chris purchased the hot water heater, delivered it, installed it, cleaned up, and got rid of the old hot water heater. We were very impressed and pleased with the service. We will use Watson and Son Plumbing again for any plumbing problems."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

It’s important to find the type of water heater that fits your needs and budget. Depending on the type of water heater, size, brand, and the type of energy you use to heat the water, costs range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand. Some of the most common types of water heaters include:

  • Electric: $600–3,500

  • Gas: $700–$2,700

  • Propane: $700–$2,500

  • High efficiency: $1,500–$3,000

  • Indirect: $1,200–$3,500

  • Hybrid heat pump: $1,200–$3,500

There are pros and cons to tankless water heaters. They are more efficient than traditional tank water heaters, and maintenance costs are lower. These units are also much more compact. On the other hand, they cost about twice as much to install as traditional tank water heaters and are more limited in terms of flow rate.

No, you’ll need to drain the tank before changing a water heater element, as the water heater element sticks through the side of the tank and uses a gasket to prevent water from pouring out. However, you don’t always need to drain it completely. If you’re only replacing the upper heating element, you can drain the tank until the water line is below the element. If you’re replacing the lower element, you’ll need to drain the whole thing.

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’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.

Yes, you can convert a gas water heater to an electric one, but it is a complex process. You will need to ensure there is adequate power for the new electric unit, as they require more power than gas models. The project also involves safely closing off the gas lines and ventilation, and some cities may require a permit for the conversion. The cost can range from $1,500 to $4,100, depending on the installation scope, plumbing and electrical work, and the water heater model. For an accurate quote, it's best to contact a local professional. Also, be aware that your monthly utility bills may increase after the conversion, as natural gas is typically cheaper than electricity.
