Water heaters come in many shapes, sizes and types. Tank type water heaters are the most common in New England and can be natural gas fired, LPG fired, oil fired or electric. Tank sizes usually range from 10 to 80 gallons (and even larger!) but 40 or 50 gallon water heaters are most common. Also fairly common are systems that heat domestic hot water indirectly from the boiler that heats the house. These systems come in several varieties both with and without storage tanks and varying levels of complexity. We are experienced with all of these systems at R Plumbing, installing, repairing, servicing, and replacing them almost daily.
