2017 Tax Breaks on Residential Energy Property Credit

Posted on February 9, 2018 by weilhammerplumbing

You should consider installing a solar-powered water heater or other type of renewable energy equipment in order to benefit from a new tax credit. If you installed one last years, you may already qualify for your 2017 taxes!

Water Heater Installation 317-784-1870

Everyone is looking for new tax breaks each year in order to pay Uncle Sam a little less than the year before. In order to do this, it is important to take advantage of as many tax credits as you can find. Tax breaks come and go often, so it is wise to act fast and utilize these tax breaks before they disappear. Right now, taxpayers who make energy efficient upgrades or make use of renewable energy, may qualify for specific tax reliefs. Continue reading to learn about this tax benefit, how to use it, and some options to qualify in the years to come.

Energy Efficiency Tax Benefits

A fairly new federal tax benefit, called the Residential Energy Property Credit, allows property owners a tax credit of up to five hundred dollars (or 30% of the cost, including installation) for a wide range of home improvements that focus on residential energy efficiency. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the Residential Energy Efficiency Property Credit can be claimed for solar, wind, and geothermal equipment upgrades.

Such home improvements and renovations include everything from solar paneling projects and water heaters, to new window installations, attic insulation, and much more. One interesting note is that this tax break was higher in earlier years, however, if a person has not yet claimed residential energy property credits in the years before, they can still claim them when filing this year. In order to claim this credit, you must file a Form 5695 with your tax return.

This residential energy property tax break is further rewarding because, in general, energy efficiency improvements are helpful and save money on their own. The tax break is an additional incentive. Be sure to take advantage of this tax benefit before it expires at the end of 2018. As mentioned before, tax benefits such as these come and go often. It is more than likely to see a similar tax break for 2018, however, the cap on return may be lower or higher. We cannot know until then!

Energy Efficient Upgrades to Consider for Tax Credit Qualification:

☑ Solar-Powered Water Heaters
☑ Solar Panels or Photovoltaics
☑ Wind Turbines
☑ Geothermal Heat Pumps
☑ Fuel Cell Power Generators

NOTE: There is another tax benefit that is similar to the residential energy property tax break called the “Nonbusiness Energy Property Credit.” Equipment and materials only qualify for the Nonbusiness Energy Property Credit if they meet all technical efficiency standards set by the Department of Energy. You can claim 10% of the cost. Talk to your accountant for more information.

Product Defects and Manufacturing Flaws in FVIR Gas Water Heaters

Posted on October 2, 2017 by weilhammerplumbing

If anyone is in the market for a new FVIR gas water heater, they should do some further research before making any final purchasing and installation decisions. There have been several consumer reports and reviews, as well as, plumber experiences, which identify product defects in these water heaters. Continue reading to catch up on all the warnings associated with FVIR gas water heaters, and the complications that have risen for homeowners all across the nation.

Indianapolis Water Heater Repair 317-784-1870

FVIR Gas Water Heater Problems

Many master plumbers and water heater contractors have seen countless problems, troubles, and complications with FVIR gas water heaters. You can trust that their expert and educated opinions regarding these hot water heaters are accurate and reliable.

Here’s what they have found:

Many brands of FVIR water heaters come with a lint filter. If this lint filter is not manually cleaned quarterly, by the owner, then the warranty is completely void. They usually do not tell you this at the time of purchase. Instead, homeowners have had to learn this lesson the hard way; unexpectedly.

Also, several FVIR brand hot water heaters have Class Action Lawsuits against them! They have more than 1,500 consumer complaints regarding the complications and shaky warranties they come with.

For those who already purchased an FVIR gas water heater, and cannot return it for a refund or trade out, it is highly recommended to at least install it in a catch pan. This prevents a load of leakage problems and more.

Also, it is strongly suggested to install a T&P valve (Thermal Expansion Tank and Pressure Valve) for properties with a closed-loop system and high water pressure. This can cost anywhere between $400 and $800, depending on the level of difficulty and time required.

Most warranties that come with FVIR water heaters are shaky at best. Their labor warranties are terrible and most consumers are forced to pay for part replacements, repairs, and more, out of pocket.

If you need to install a new hot water heater in your home or commercial property, consult a licensed Indianapolis master plumber for expert advice and industry information. They can give you trusted advice on which brand water heaters are best for your home and hot water needs. You can trust that they know exactly what you need, all within your budget.

The Water Heater Repair Facts You Need to Know

Posted on June 5, 2017 by weilhammerplumbing

Water Heater Repair and Service 317-784-1870

Your water heater is one of the most important technologies in your home. Without it, you are left to live in a way our ancestors did during the ages without indoor heated plumbing! Everything from your mentality, skin, laundry, and dishes are better treated with hot water. For these reasons and more, it is important to provide your water heater with proper maintenance and care. By understanding your water heater, especially the facts surrounding repair and replacement, you can improve your household’s energy efficiency and cost savings exponentially, for years to come.

Continue reading to learn the vital facts you need to know if you are having trouble with your water heater.

Deciding Between Repair and Replacement

All things man-made are capable of breaking, and your water heater is no different. Even with the best upkeep, it may experience issues at some point in time. If it does, you have to make the educated decision between having it repaired and replacing it altogether. To help you with this decision, you’ll need the assistance of a licensed plumbing contractor who specializes in water heater service. They have the knowledge and resources to provide accurate diagnostics of your water heater, regardless of make or model. They can make professional recommendations that fit your home’s best interests, as well as your budget.

The General Rule of Thumb for Water Heaters

So what will your plumbing technician likely tell you? Water heaters are not designed to last forever. So as they get older, they get closer to their expiration date. Once a water heater has reached a certain age range, it is better off replaced than repaired in terms of cost.

The general rule of thumb adhered to by most water heater professionals is the “8 to 10 year” rule. If a water heater is older than 8 years, and it is experiencing operational issues, it is likely more cost-effective to replace it than it would be to repair it. Not only is this the more cost-effective choice, it is the safer choice. When a water heater is this old, problems can be repaired, but they are likely to continue and get worse as the unit continues to age. It is more beneficial to invest in a new water heater rather than to waste more money repairing an old one.

New Water Heaters

If your water heater is fairly new and problems occur, repair is the most effectual option. In this case, it is likely a water heater is still under warranty, which means the cost to repair any issues is fully or partially covered by the manufacturer or retailer you purchased it from. You may have to pay partially under warranty if the warranty only covers replacement parts; so you would be responsible to cover labor costs. Fortunately, labor costs are not usually extreme among plumbing and water heater contractors.

New Water Heater Replacement

Sometimes, new water heaters cannot be repaired, and must be replaced instead. For instance, if the storage tank is somehow damaged to the point that is causes the water heater to malfunction, you would need to replace the entire water heater as a whole. Most parts of a water heater are replaceable, but not all.

How to Descale a Tankless Water Heater

Posted on May 2, 2017 by weilhammerplumbing

Tankless water heaters have become a popular energy-efficient alternative to the standard tank-style water heaters we know so well. Aside from their increased energy-efficiency and eco-friendly operation, tankless water heaters have much to offer home and business owners alike. One of the most important responsibilities of owning a tankless water heater is regular maintenance. This includes annual inspections and service from a licensed plumbing contractor, as well as, routine descaling. Although it is recommended to call a licensed plumber for water heater descaling services, it is a job any handy homeowner can accomplish themselves.

Water Heater Repair and Service 317-784-1870

Descaling a Tankless Hot Water Heater

In areas with hard water, lime and scale can build up on the inside walls of the heat exchanger, causing problems for the entire unit. It is recommended to have your tankless water heater descaled once per year. You can choose to appoint the duty to a local and licensed plumber, or, you can choose to undertake the task yourself. If you wish to move forward on your own, be sure to review the basic steps of descaling a tankless hot water heater first. Look below to get started doing just that!

Tip: If your tankless water heater does not come equipped with isolation valves, you need to call a contractor for professional service!

What You’ll Need:

✔ 5-Gallon Bucket
✔ 3 Gallons Virgin White Vinegar
✔ Submersible Circulation Pump (available at any home improvement store)
✔ Two Small Garden Hoses

Instructions:

1. Turn off all power (gas or electricity) the water heater. Switch the breaker in the electrical box or shut off the main gas.

2. Shut off all water supply to the entire property, including the hot and cold water heater valves. No water should be coming into the house or into the water heater. These handles usually turn north to south and are located on the side of the hot and cold valves.

3. Be sure the hot and cold water valves are also closed. These are generally labeled red and blue and turn side to side.

4. Carefully remove the purge port valve caps. Place them somewhere gently so the rubber washer discs do not dislodge and they are not lost. You may feel some pressure when doing this, but just make sure the hot water valve is closed and you should be safe.

5. Fill the bucket with 3 gallons of white vinegar. Be sure the bucket is in a stable position and it won’t tip over once full.

6. Connect the hot and cold water hoses to the correct valves.

7. Connect the other end of the cold water hose to the output of the circulation pump.

8. Place the pump inside the bucket of vinegar.

9. Place the other end of the hot water hose inside the bucket.

10. Open the cold and hot water valves back up by turning them half-way, so the levers are parallel to the hoses. This will allow vinegar to flow up from the bucket, through the pump, up to the water heater, then back out of the hot water valve, and then back into the bucket. This flushes all the solid deposits from inside the tank.

11. To get that started, plug in your circulation pump and turn it on.

12. To be sure water is flushing properly, slowly lift the outlet hose out of the vinegar and check that water is coming out.

13. Allow the system to circulate for one hour, no longer.

14. When finished, turn off the pump and drain the vinegar from the tank.

15. Close the cold water valve.

16. Open the main cold water supply valve and flush cold clean water through the tank for 5 minutes to clear out any residual vinegar. Then close the main water valve.

17. Remove the filter screen from the inlet of the cold water valve and clear any buildup. Replace it when finished.

18. Disconnect the hoses, and replace purge caps.

19. Close the hot and cold water valves.

20. Open the main cold and hot water supply valves.

21. Turn the power back on.

22. Run hot water from a few faucets around the house and check for any performance issues.

The Advantages of Electric Water Heaters

Posted on March 8, 2017 by weilhammerplumbing

Electric Water Heater Repair 317-784-1870

Whether you’re moving into a new home or replacing an old unit, you will be faced with the decision of choosing among all the different types of water heaters on the market. Hot water heaters can be powered by many energy sources, so you have the option of buying a unit that runs off natural gas, fuel oil, propane, geothermal power, solar power, electricity, or even a heat pump. Out of these options, one has made quite the impression on home and business owners over the last few years: electric water heaters. Electric units have gained popularity since newer, more dependable models have been introduced to the market. If you are trying to decide among all the hot water heater options out there, continue reading to learn why electric water heaters are so beneficial.

Traditional Water Heaters

To better understand the various benefits of electric water heaters, it is helpful to review how a traditional model works. Traditional hot water heaters come with an 80 gallon tank, or larger depending on the property’s hot water needs. This tank holds heated water that is ready to use, instantly. Cold water enters through the bottom of the tank from the city’s main water supply, and it is heated to a preset temperature. It remains at this temperature at all times inside the tank.

Tankless On Demand Water Heaters

Just like traditional “tank-style” units, it is helpful to review how tankless water heaters work as well. These units do not come with a large-gallon tank, and instead, only heats water when it is requested for immediate use. This reduces standby-energy loss, making it a more efficient method of heating water. Now let’s take a look at the many advantages offered by tankless and tank-style electric water heaters!

Electric Water Heaters

Traditional Tank-Style:

Tank-style electric water heaters come with storage tanks between 20 and 80 gallons. They operate by using two separate heating elements, each with their own thermostat. The first heating element is positioned at the top of the storage tank. It is designed to recover more hot water in the case that more hot water is demanded. The second heating element is found at the bottom of the tank, and its job is to maintain the preset temperature setting. In contract to traditional, gas water heaters, electric units are incredibly efficient because the water is not being heated at all times.

Tankless On Demand:

If you are looking for even more energy efficiency, a tankless electric water heater is the right choice for your home. Water is only heated upon request, making these units extremely energy efficient. Here’s how they work: Cold water enters through the bottom of the unit where it is heated to a preset temperature, and then it is then sent through the hot water lines, directly up to the faucets. This process takes between 5 to 10 seconds from the time you turn on the water.

4 Critical Steps to Prevent a Water Heater Explosion

Posted on January 16, 2017 by weilhammerplumbing

Water Heater Repair and Service 317-784-1870

When you go long periods of time without checking up on the condition of your water heater, you are putting your safety and your savings at risk. When water heaters are not serviced properly, they begin to corrode, defect, and breakdown overtime. This is the easy version. Sometimes, in addition to (and as a result of) the aforementioned damages, water heaters can also rupture and explode. This is not only dangerous and destructive, it is very costly to undo.

The average cost of renovating after a water heater explosion can be devastating; ranging anywhere from $4,000 to $10,000 and more, depending on the amount of structural damages and needed flood repairs. This doesn’t include any associated medical expenses for related injuries or trauma. There are four ways to prevent water heaters from bursting, and they should all be performed by a licensed contractor well-versed in water heater service. Continue reading to learn the four critical steps to stopping your water heater from ever exploding.

❶ Flush and Drain the Tank Once a Year

Hard minerals like magnesium and calcium buildup inside water heater tanks over time, which impedes water heater performance capacity. To avoid sediment accumulation, you must have the tank flushed annually. If you hear knocking or other strange noises, your water heater tank may need to be flushed. This service should be carried out by a licensed professional well-versed and trained in water heater repair. Check client reviews and credentials before making a hiring decision.

❷ Replace the Anode Rod As Needed

The anode rod on a hot water heater is a valuable component. It prevents water heater tank corrosion by corroding itself. This is why it is commonly referred to as a “sacrificial” anode rod. If this part is not replaced as needed, which is usually once every 5 or 6 years, it will cause the glass lining within the tank to corrode in its place. This leads to faster deterioration and costly water heater repairs or replacements. Again, have a professional provide this service, which leads to the third method of preventing water heater explosions…

❸ Get Annual Service and Maintenance for Your Water Heater

Hire a professional service to maintenance your hot water heater at least once per year, twice if living in a larger home or home with multiple occupants. Regular maintenance is imperative to sustaining a safe and functional water heater. It prevents dangerous explosions and costly breakdowns, keeping you comfortable all year long.

❹ Replace a Bad Water Heater ASAP

If a water heater is simply beyond repair, and should be replaced, don’t hold onto it for another second! This could be dangerous and is one of the most common reasons for water heater explosions. Don’t try to continue using a bad water heater; replace it as soon as you know it’s no good anymore.

Water Heater Warranty Reminders for Homeowners

Posted on January 9, 2017 by weilhammerplumbing

Water Heater Repair and Service 317-784-1870

As a homeowner, you most likely have a water heater somewhere in the house. If not, you own another type of appliance that heats the homes’ water. When it comes to owning a water heater, certain precautions must be taken; and buying a warranty is one of them. In these warranties; however, there can be some fine writing that is, often times, overlooked by the average home owner. Be sure to dig deep into the warranties offered by water heater brands, and learn where you’re protected and where you’re not.

Know the Length of Your Warranty

Do you know if your water heater is currently under warranty? Do you know how long your warranty is for? In most cases, water heater warranties range anywhere from one to five years. If your appliance is older than five years, you may not be covered under your manufacturer’s warranty anymore. If you are still under warranty, be sure to check out the limitations and constrictions in your purchasing agreement. See how long your warranty is in place. Once you have this information, you can determine whether or not you can use your warranty for repair, need a new warranty, or a new water heater altogether.

New Warranty vs. New Water Heater

If your water heater is already four or five years old on a six year warranty, is it a better choice to buy a new water heater with a brand new warranty protection; or to keep your aging appliance and purchase a new warranty? This is a decision many homeowners face when it comes to water heater warranties. The best way to determine which decision suits your needs best, is to ask yourself a few questions. Do you plan to live in the home for another five to six years? If so, perhaps purchasing a new unit would be more beneficial. You can have a brand new high performance appliance, with a brand new warranty attached. On the other hand; are you moving or selling the home soon? If so, then re-purchasing another warranty is probably a better financial position, long-term.
