"Showed up, tested, diagnosed, filled the system with coolant, pointed out general maintenance issues that had not been addressed like dirty/clogged filters etc. Took credit card for payment. Excellent service! Even managed to send the tech out the day after we reached out to them."

"The contractors from freedom heating and Air were very fast and efficient with their work. They came in and took a look at what needed to be done. Took about 5 to 10 minutes to go get the equipment they needed and in less than a hour they were done. My wife and I are very pleased with the choice of hiring them to fix a leaky pipe that was leading to our gas furnace and the price for doing the job was well in our budget."

"I had researched replacing my broken standard water heater with a whole house instant water heater and Plumb Perfect was directed to me by HomeAdvisor. Mr. Alexander had GREAT communication with me on arriving on time and my options with what I had already researched. He offered another option that I was previously not aware of that would save me nearly $1000 on initial costs from what I had researched online. Mr. Alexander was extremely courteous, professional and was genuinely interested in my needs being met over his final costs. I can't say enough about how comfortable I was with his recommendations, attitude and demeanor towards this project. He gave me honest and clear pros and cons towards my research that I may not have considered as well as for his recommendations and let me decide what I thought was best for my situation. I have added his number to my favorites list and will call upon him again if I need his services. If you are ever in need of a plumber Mr. Alexander with Plumb Perfect should be your first call. Thank you for your service Mr. Alexander, Ed. B"

"Our furnace motor was making a loud noise, and Chris Suttles came by and diagnosed the problem shortly after I called. He fixed the problem that afternoon, and the furnace is now quieter than it's ever been. I asked him to come by the next week and give the furnace a tune-up and clean the heating ducts. When Chris opened one of the supply ducts, he found the inside of the ducts had a sticky, oil-like coating. I decided to replace the ductwork, and he replaced all of the ductwork in 2 days. The air coming out of our vents is now cleaner, warmer, and stronger."

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

A thermocouple is a pretty simple device. It simply tells the control valve if heat is present. Most water heaters can use a universal thermocouple, provided it's the correct length. Getting one that's long enough for your appliance is crucial for success. However, some water heater models require model-specific thermocouples, which is why it's essential to take your existing one to the store to find the right match.

Water expands when heated and also when freezing. When water is heated, it expands by around 4%. For a full water heater, this is one of the main reasons malfunctions occur—the hot water has nowhere else to go but out. Due to the constant expansion and reduction in volume, it’s recommended (required in most places) that an expansion tank be installed.

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.

The amount of time it takes to replace an electric water heater will depend on the skill level of the individual who is replacing it. For example, if you replace it yourself–and you don’t have much experience–you can expect the project to take a full day. 

However, if you have a certified plumber or water heater contractor install your new water heater, it can take as little as 2 to 3 hours.
