"I was aware that my old heat pump was on its last legs. Installed in 2000 I was told to expect it to last about 10-12 years. The air handler/furnace dated back to the year the house was built, 1983. I had a problem with the heat pump running out of freon back in March of this year. At that time the Bakers tech warned that the unit was very likely to go soon. He charged me $300 for replacing the freon and said if the heat pump failed within six months, Bakers would apply the money toward a replacement. Sure enough it failed a few months later. The way the air handler was configured, the hot water heater had to be removed to replace the furnace. This unit was very old as well and Bakers was able to replace it with a new one with no charge for labor as the furnace replacement required the hot water heater to be removed anyway. They also gave me a 10% discount on the cost of the water heater and applied the $300 credit as promised. The crew arrived promptly as scheduled, worked quickly, and cleaned up very thoroughly upon completing the work.

"I was very pleased with my overall experience.
Our commode was leaking badly and I didn't know of any plumbers. I remembered the commercial on tv about "Angies List". I looked on "Angies List" for a plumber to hire and fix my plumbing issue. I located "tjm plumbing", he was the closest to my location. I call him and made an appointment for him to come over the next day and he was on time. When he arrived, he introduced himself to me and ask me to explain what the problem was. I showed him the commode, he took a look at the inside and as he was pulling out the flapper, (it looked rather spent), so he replaced it. He also tighten a screw on the bottom of the tank, he kept feeling of the line to see if it was leaking, and said I think that will take care of your problem, he said you might have to replace the bottom of the device that the flapper fits over (because the water kept running off and on), at least it wasn't leaking. He said to give him a call if I needed him to return, and he left. During the night it started to leak again, I found that the floor was saturated with water. I called him again, and he came right out that morning and this time he found that he had to replace the line that was rusted out and a couple of other parts. He didn't charge me anything for his time or cost of parts. I will hire him again, if I ever have another plumbing issue.

"Jim Hicks came out to the house and did a water test on our roof to determine the source of the leak. Previously we had another company come out and repair it with no luck. Jim found three leaks on the roof, all confirmed with a water test. Crew was scheduled quickly and they were very efficient. Best news is that the leaks are finally repaired and we can rest easy.

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Your water heater's age can affect your homeowners' insurance policy. Many policies will ask how old the heater is when you first apply for a policy—and they may make you replace a model that's over 10 years old. 

Even if your policy permits you to have an older heater, it may significantly reduce the amount of protection available. If an older water heater suddenly leaks and causes damage to parts of your home, your policy may not cover it.

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.

Newer models are packed with newer technologies that decrease energy consumption and increase output, giving you more bang for your buck in more bills than one. 

If you’re trying to decide whether you want to repair or replace your new heater, consider factors like your utility bills, repair costs, and even your carbon footprint to help you decide whether it makes sense to buy a new one instead.

A well-maintained hot water recirculating pump can last 5 to 15 years. Pumps that run continuously may have a shorter lifespan than demand-controlled models. Hard water can reduce longevity by causing mineral buildup in the pump and pipes. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, can extend the pump’s lifespan.

You don’t have to replace expansion tanks at the same time as your hot water heater. You may be able to go six to 12 years or more before needing to replace your expansion tank. At $150 to $450, hot water heater expansion tanks are usually much more affordable than the cost of hot water tanks themselves, which average about $1,190.
