"It was very hot and I was desperate for Puron for my heat pump. The company that agreed to come didn't show up and I called Jimmy Gusky Heating and Air based on the Angie's List reviews. And they were right! The company came the next day and not only provided the needed Puron but provided me with great advice on my next steps.

"I highly recommend Fred's Plumbing! They promptly gave me a quote that was significantly better than any of the others I received for a new hot water heater. They were quick, pleasant, and did good work. No high pressure sales or price gimmicks. I'll definitely hire them again."

"I can't say enough about DB's Plumbing. I called in the morning, had a return call within hours and they were at my house that night. 24 hours later, the new hot water heater was installed! Price beat all others. Duncan was professional and knew exactly what he was doing. DB Plumbing is now my GO TO PLUMBER!"

"We had a great experience when SwiftPro completed a dryer duct cleaning and a bathroom fan replacement at our home! They were on time, professional, and friendly. Moises also threw in a much-needed bird cover for our dryer vent to help prevent future issues. We highly recommend Tyler, Moises and the SwiftPro team for all of your HVAC and plumbing needs!"

"Albert and Joseph provided truly exceptional service during their visit to my home. Albert first installed my kitchen faucet and food processor, and then, both came back to install a water heater with remarkable professionalism, care, and efficiency. From the moment they arrived, they were responsive, respectful, and incredibly warm. They took the time to explain my options, helped me feel at ease, and ensured I understood why the water heater they recommended was the best choice on the market. On top of that, they went above and beyond by fixing a separate issue in my shower without hesitation. Their dedication, expertise, and kindness made the entire experience outstanding. I am deeply grateful for their work and highly recommend them."

"Mr. Brian Langford made all the arrangements with the installation of our gas hot water heater from Lowe's via McCarthy plumbing. He was extremely helpful,patient, professional and available to answer all questions. Due to his approach to his work, we will be working with both companies in the future. Only concern I have is the warranty between Lowe's and AO Smith Hot water heaters. Once the heater is installed, Lowe's severs ties. If there is a problem with the hot water heater, you cannot return it to Lowe's although it was purchased through them, this is clearly stated on the Hot water heater in bold writing."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

No state requires you to vent an electric water heater. Other installation requirements for water heaters will vary, though, depending on the state and local jurisdiction in which you live. Some places require permits, while others don’t. Some may force you to place the appliance a certain distance from any walls or other appliances, while others don't. When you find a local professional to install a water heater, this expert will ensure you follow all the local regulations.

The time it takes to install or replace a water heater depends on the type of heater and the complexity of the job. A professional can typically replace a standard tank-style water heater in one to three hours. However, if the work area is tight, such as a small closet or crawl space, the job could take four to five hours. Replacing an existing tankless unit takes about two to three hours, while upgrading from a tank-style to a tankless water heater is more complex and can take four to six hours. The project will take longer if you are switching fuel sources, such as installing a gas heater which can add about an hour to the timeline, or if the unit needs to be relocated.

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.

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

When installing a new furnace, it's a good time to consider other projects that can enhance your home's energy efficiency. A great first step is to get a home energy audit, which will identify areas for improvement. Common recommendations include sealing or replacing windows and adding insulation to the attic. These upgrades can help you save money on monthly utility costs. You might also consider installing a smart thermostat to make heating your home more convenient and efficient.
