Please call us today. 610 462 3760. Thank you

"Very happy we had Contek repair and remodel our living room. Started with a prompt visit by Corey and a detailed quote shortly after, and we then got on their schedule about 6 weeks later. Job consisted of removing and repairing a large area of the ceiling that was water damaged, removing a 9' picture window and also repairing water damage around that, refinishing that with two smaller double-hung windows, refinishing it all inside and outside, and lastly converting a standard small doored closet into an open mudroom closet. Dan managed the job and was nothing but a complete pleasure to work with. Shawn and crew did the vast majority of the work and were also a pleasure to work with. We did have a few finishing items we weren't initially satisfied with, but I'm only saying this because they made it very clear that they wanted us to be COMPLETELY satisfied, and to tell us of any concerns. Dan really went above and beyond here, and he and the crew addressed each of our concerns. It really was a pleasure having the Contek team work on our home, and now we have a living room we can't wait to show off."

"Robert, the owner of Brooks HVAC is not reliable, he charged me full price and was paid in full to fix my gas fireplace, but never showed back up to complete the job. He doesn?t answer his phone, can?t leave a message because his mailbox is full, he doesn?t respond to my texts or emails. Now I?m out $420.00 and he never came back. I opened a complaint with the Better Business Bureaux and have contacted my attorney for advice going forward."

"I do have to say he does good work. HOWEVER.... We were quoted one price for labor and charged a much higher price. He ran into a friend and talked for a long time while charging us to chat with his friend and then proudly he told us he ran into a friend, and they chatted. We were not allowed to choose the bathtub facet that was going into OUR house. He brought it with him, and it is UGLY beyond belief and now we are stuck with this in our house. The facet is not something I would put in a cellar tub that no one ever saw it is that ugly!!!! We thought at least it must have been an expensive well-built facet because of how high the bill was but NOPE it is cheap and not expensive at all. We priced it. The highest price anywhere was $188.99 with no plumber or any other kind of discount. We were charged $700 for less than three hours of work and that gosh awful facet. We went to the place of business to question the cost and let him know we needed the serial number to register that ugly facet and he refused to answer the door. We called and left two messages and NOTHING. He is refusing to give us the serial number or explain the ridiculously high charge after quoting us $100 per hour for labor. He even insulted us because we asked what the warranty of his work was and wanted him to put his name on the paper. After all, he scribbled on the signature line. Very unprofessional."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

The average water heater holds between 40 and 60 gallons, but the exact amount of water that comes out during draining will depend on your unit’s capacity. The amount of time it takes to drain a water heater averages from 10 to 30 minutes.

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.

Venting a gas water heater out of the roof is preferable in most cases. Heated exhaust gases naturally rise, so a vertical vent pipe is efficient. If you’re trying to vent through a pipe exiting a wall, the angle of the pipe may be more horizontal than vertical, making the venting system less effective. If you go through a wall, you may need to add a fan to ensure a successful expulsion of the gases outdoors.

If your water heater continues to have issues, you may wonder how long an electric water heat lasts. On average, these units last between 10 to 15 years. Following a proper maintenance schedule can help the water heater live to the end of its average lifespan or longer.

You can and should vent the gas from your hot water heater to the outside of your home. Traditionally, these gases were vented back to other gas appliances, like stoves or furnaces, but many jurisdictions have outlawed this practice due to the risks it provides. 

Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.
