"I purchased a condo in Salt Lake City this past year. When it was time for the annual spring maintenance on my rooftop central AC unit, I found Just Right Air on Angie's list and decided to give them a try based on positive reviews and a 50% off coupon for any tune ups offered to Angie's List members. The technicians arrived on time, were dressed professionally, and went right to work servicing and cleaning the air conditioning unit. They also checked my furnace and the humidifier system. When the cleaning and maintenance tasks were complete, I was given the checklist they use to ensure a comprehensive service call. It listed all tests that were performed along with the results and any recommendations for service. It was apparent from our conversation and review of the checklist that the technicians were both extremely knowledgeable and thorough in servicing my HVAC. The technician also took the time to demonstrate the operation and maintenance of each piece of equipment including the digital thermostat that controls all components of my system. (The previous owner did not leave any manuals.). JRA also fixed an issue with the drip pan that my water heater sits in at a reasonable additional cost. (A plumbing service --My Buddy the Plumber--said it could only be fixed by first removing the new water heater they had just installed and then reinstalling it. Thankfully, this was not the case.) I decided to sign up for one of the maintenance plans that Just Right Air offers. Not only are their plans cost-effective, but enrollment puts you on their 'priority list' for priority service. I'm very pleased with the service I received from Just Right Air, and I highly recommend this company to others."

"Over the years I have used 4 different companies for my A/C, heating and plumbing needs. I will be using Whipple Service Champions from now on. James Garcia is a service technician with Whipple. James did a fantastic job on my A/C blower motor replacement and system service. He arrived on time for the diagnostic service on my system. He explained everything to me. (I tend to ask a lot of questions). He gave me a few quote options. I accepted one of the quotes and James was back the next morning to do the repair. He did everything has said he would do. My system is repaired and operating properly. I will be using Whipple from now on for all my plumbing, hearing, air conditioning, drain cleaning and electrical needs."

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

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.

In most municipalities, a license is not mandatory for water heater installation or replacement. However, we strongly recommend hiring a licensed plumber or water heater installer to handle the work. Licensed installers are far less likely to make a mistake during the installation, which means paying for the experience decreases your risk of a leak and other issues. You can use our state licensing tool to find out if a contractor you’re considering in your area holds a plumber’s license.

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

While heat pump water heaters are more expensive than gas-powered water heaters, the ROI is higher for heat pump units. Not only are heat pump water heaters more energy efficient, meaning immediate savings on your energy bill, but they also last longer than traditional gas versions, meaning you won't have to buy them as often.

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.
