"The whole experience replacing the water heater from the beginning to completion of the job was excellent. I do not have any complaints. I shopped around to other water heater company's and nobody could even come close with price or workmanship to premier water heaters. I would not have any problem recommending premier water heater"
"My technician Kyle was very informative and respectful. He explained what was going on and was very professional. Kyle even left me with an electric heater for the evening until they could replace my furnace the next day. Kyle was back early the next morning to start the replacement of my old furnace for the new one and it is working great! I am so happy that I was able to get this done right away."

"I have used this company multiple times over the years. Installed a hot water heater and fixed some pipes when they froze in the winter. Dale is the best of the best! Would highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"They showed up very quickly. After replacing the hot water heater I went down in the basement later that day to inspect the work and found water all over the floor and a leaking braze joint right above the heater with the incoming water line. They came back quickly and repaired the leak but the mess on the floor was all mine to clean up. Not a fun experience at all. "

"Awesome job. Highly recommend and will use them in the future. Purchased the roof inspection off Angie's list. They came and were on the roof in no time. We were told our nails hadn't been caulked, and he did a quick caulk (which may explain some water leakage we had). Did some minor repairs and was extremely friendly. All said and told in less than 15 minutes. We will need some new shingles soon, and I will definitely give them a call. "

"I go through them sometimes and I have mixed feeling about them. You can elect to cover as little or as much as you want and for a yearly price they will cover it. You have to use their providers. Sometimes their providers are good and sometimes they aren't. Sometimes they want to keep fixing something that's obviously broken rather than replace it. That's my criticism. I've had them for many years. I live alone and so I feel like big ticket items, like if I have to have my air replaced I can go through them. Over the years I've had water heaters replaced, air conditioners replaced. I think the price is a little high but if you need a big item replaced it is totally worth it. I think that sometimes they don't use the best products that are available. I think that like everybody they are trying to get by with the least that they can do it with the contract for these companies. It's that kind of a thing, price driven."
The lifespan of a water heater depends on its type, usage, and maintenance schedule. Traditional tank-style water heaters typically last between 8 and 12 years, though the range can be as wide as 6 to 15 years. Within this category, gas models often last 8-12 years, while electric models may last 10-15 years. In contrast, tankless water heaters have a significantly longer lifespan, often lasting up to 20 years or more. Factors like heavy usage, hard water, and sediment buildup can shorten a unit's life. To extend its lifespan, it is crucial to perform regular maintenance, such as flushing the tank annually and scheduling professional inspections. If your unit is over a decade old and shows signs of rust, leaks, strange noises, or inconsistent heating, it is likely time for a replacement.
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.
Due to the high temperature, using stainless steel vent pipes for your tankless water heater’s exhaust vent is best. Also, it is safe to use a flexible vent duct as the exhaust fan. If installing the exhaust fan yourself, make sure you are using heat-resistant silicon to connect the exhaust vent and the duct on your water heater.
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.
The size needed for your expansion tank is determined by the size of your home's water heater. Expansion tanks are available in 2-gallon and 4.5-gallon sizes. A 2-gallon tank will be appropriate for water heaters up to 50 gallons. An adequately sized tank should have a volume that equals 2% to 5% of the water volume within the system. A plumber can evaluate your home's water pressure, water heater size, and other factors to provide suggestions for picking out the best expansion tank.
