"I have my 14 years old water heater replaced by Flint & Associates recently. Jordan and his partner arrived on time and installed new water heater in couple of hours. They were professional and efficient, did a great job, highly recommended. Communications with Chad were easy, quoted price was very reasonable and respond time was fast. I will use this company again if needed for future plumbing services."

"On 10/27/2027, I had to find a plumber to repair my water heater that had stopped heating water. I went online to Angi?s website and received 3 different plumbing companies in the Austin, TX area. One of the companies was 5-Mile Plumbing Co. The owner of the company, Elvis Bernal, contacted me. We discussed the issue with the water heater. Mr. Bernal gave me his assessment and provided me with a bid proposal on the cost of the repair. Mr. Bernal came to our house the next day and immediately started work on the water heater. I watched Mr. Bernal from a distance and asked questions regarding the procedure. Mr. Bernal went out of his way to answer my questions. During his work, Mr. Bernal also saw something else that needed replacement on the water heater and immediately left the house to go purchase the part. Mr. Bernal replaced the part, continued the repair and verified one of the heating elements had gone out. A new heating element was installed and Mr. Bernal ?bled? the"

"I was disappointed that he arrived late because as he said "he forgot". If he is tech savvy enough to use Apple Pay (which was really great firme) the one would think he should be able to set reminders for his appointments so he doesn't forget. I now seem to be having issues with my water heater and I'm vacillating about calling him again?"

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

Most standard residential water heaters, which are typically around 40 gallons and use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts, require a 30-amp, two-pole circuit breaker. For smaller, point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts, a 30-amp breaker is also often adequate. However, some models may have different needs; units that use more watts than average may require a 40-amp breaker, while smaller units might only need a 20-amp breaker. Newer, tankless, or more energy-efficient models can also require a higher amperage. Having the correct breaker size is crucial for safe and efficient operation, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to determine the specific needs of your water heater.

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

If you're replacing a broken water heater, now is a great time to make sure you're selecting a unit that has the right capacity for your household. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, a small 50-gallon to 60-gallon tank is sufficient for households with one to three people. A medium-sized 80-gallon tank is considered ideal for three to four people. A larger tank may be needed if your household has four to six people.

Yes, you can replace a current tank water heater with a tankless model or vice versa. If you’re maintaining the same fuel source—gas or electricity—the switchover should be smooth. A conventional tank requires open floor space, while a tankless model can be wall-mounted. If you’re switching to a tank water heater, you might need to clear space for it. Gas-powered tankless water heaters need a large volume of gas when they start running to heat the water instantly. You might need to increase the size of the gas line when going from a tank to a tankless model.

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.
