"John and his team are gems! A 15 year old tank went on Father?s Day weekend and John jumped in with excellent customer care! Limped the tank along for use till a new larger more efficient tank could be installed a few days later. No more cold showers for this busy family of 6! Thanks as always John!"

"I had several companies come out to give me information and an estimate to install a heat pump hybrid hot water heater. I got a call right away from a very nice man, he gave me a price over the phone without coming out. I did ask questions and he answered them all. I think he would have done a very good job and his estimate was in line with others who came out to my home to look at my existing unit. I like to personally meet pros so I can get to know them while they are evaluating the problem. This was a big expense and a big decision. I would be fine with a faucet, drain clean, etc with just talking over the phone but I like to meet the pro when I am spending a lot of money."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Flushing biannually, checking the anode rod, and temperature settings maximize equipment lifespan while reducing surprise costs.

Tankless water heaters are more expensive than those with a storage tank, but they come with some impressive benefits that most homeowners find worth the higher investment. Most importantly, they provide unlimited hot water, so you’ll never run out like you would with a storage tank. Tankless heaters are also more efficient, so comparing gallon-for-gallon, you’ll spend less on hot water with a tankless heater. Tankless water heaters are also smaller, require less maintenance, and tend to last longer than storage tank water heaters.

Every city and state will have its own set of installation codes and laws. Some won’t require you to obtain a permit before replacing your water heater, though we recommend you do, regardless of the local codes. On the other hand, some cities and states might require secondary permits for plumbing and electrical work related to the installation. Check with a local water heater installation company and local building codes to confirm which permits are required and what the specific laws are.

Choosing between an electric water heater vs. a gas water heater comes down to personal preference. Overall, electric heaters are more energy efficient than their gas competitors. They’re also quieter to operate, take up less room, and don’t come with a risk of gas leaks. 

The downside is that electric water heaters cost more to operate than gas. They might also struggle to heat water fast enough for households that use large amounts of hot water. Lastly, a power outage could cause your electric water heater to stop working, whereas gas water heaters may still function.

Typically, only a high-efficiency water heater with an inducer fan can be vented outside the house. Otherwise, your water heater needs to be installed on the inside and vented through the roof. However, certain areas may allow a standard-efficiency water heater to be vented outside. Check your local building codes to be sure.
