Furnace Maintenance Tips

Right now, the temperatures are pretty comfortable throughout the day, but at night, it gets a bit on the nippy side. Before too long, though, it will just be downright cold, chilly, frigid – whatever you want to call it! With that being said, there is no time like the present to have a good...

Types of Tankless Water Heater Applications

There are several types of tankless water heater applications, because a tankless water heater system can be used wherever a traditional tank-style water heater can be used, and in many other places where a tank-style heater cannot be used. Because of the compact nature of tankless systems and the minimal amount of space that they take up, there are many tankless applications that you may not have even considered. Some of these applications include:

 

Single-family whole home water heating

A tankless water heater system makes a great replacement for a whole home water heater – whether gas or electric – for a host of residential applications, such as apartments, condominiums, houses, manufactured homes, recreational properties and guest homes. In applications where there is an extremely high demand for hot water, there can be multiple heaters deployed. Or, you can pair a tankless system with a conventional tank-style system in a type of booster configuration.

 

Multi-family whole home water heating

Resort property owners, hotel and motel operators and property managers and developers can save thousands of dollars per year by having tankless water heating systems in their units. In addition, because floor space is always at a premium, switching to a tankless water heater system can save a great deal of physical space that can be used for other needs such as storage.

 

Point of use water heating

A tankless water heater system, due to its small size, is well suited for point of use applications around a home and is great for bringing hot water to parts of the home that are located quite a distance away from the existing water heater system. They can also help provide low-cost water heating for organizations such as schools and businesses in areas such as cafeterias and lavatories.

 

Other business and commercial applications

There are several other ways that tankless water heaters can be used in commercial water heating applications, such as restaurants, hotels, lodges, laundromat facilities, salons, spas and several more.

 

If you would like more information on a specific application in which you may be interested, or you would like to schedule a tankless water heater installation, please call Feehan Plumbing, Heating and Cooling at (484) 352-2643. We will be happy to help you determine the proper tankless water heater system for your needs and help steer you toward the right model that is right for your application.

Choosing The Right Tankless Water Heater in Delaware County

On February 15, 2012, in Tankless Water Heaters, by Steve Teneriello

Buying a tankless water heating system is a significant investment in your home, and there are several factors you need to consider when choosing the right tankless brand for you. Feehan Plumbing, Heating and Cooling sells and services many leading manufacturers of tankless systems, and we want to help you make the most informed choice you can make.

Here are some general factors to take into consideration when choosing the right tankless brand.

 

The size of your home

The biggest factors in this category are the number of bathrooms in your home and the amount of water your normally use for appliances. Tankless systems typically have ratings based on the gallons per minute, or GPM, that they produce. These various systems range from 4 GPM to 14 GPM. The right system, no matter what its GPM, will produce enough hot water for your needs. However, you should check with a professional to make sure you are purchasing a system that is not too small or too large. Call Feehan at (484) 353-2643 to have a professional help you purchase the correct system.

Climate and temperature

You next need to factor in the temperature of the groundwater that comes in to your home. You’ll need much more heating power in the winter, obviously, than you will in the spring or summer. The difference in temperature between the groundwater and the hot water temperature you prefer will have a significant impact on the size of tankless system you need. It is best if you use the temperature of the groundwater when it is at its coldest in order to calculate the size of system that you need.

Warranty and certification

You want to make sure that the model you buy has a warranty. You will be making an important investment for your home, and if something goes wrong, you will want the confidence of knowing that it is covered under warranty. Be sure to inquire with the company about this, and read the fine print to make sure you’re getting good coverage. If the company you’re having install the unit is certified by the manufacturer of the tankless water heater you choose, you can typically get an extended warranty. Choosing the right professionals to install the tankless water heater is just as important as what brand you go with.

Reputation and quality

However, when choosing a tankless water heater, you should always consider the quality and reputation of the brand you decide to go with. What are people saying about the tankless water heater company you are considering? Do they have good ratings? Are they recognized by the government for tax incentives? Are they partnered with environmental and energy saving programs? Answering these questions will help you find a quality tankless water heater that will help you conserve water and save money.

Resale Value of Tankless Water Heaters

On February 13, 2012, in Tankless Water Heaters, by Steve Teneriello

Did you know that up to 20 percent of a home’s energy cost can be spent on the water heater? Tankless water heaters are a new alternative, offering efficiency and comfort for homeowners.

Did you know that up to 20 percent of a home’s energy cost can be spent on the water heater? Tankless water heaters are a new alternative, offering efficiency and comfort for homeowners. Instead of a large 50-60 gallon tank that heats and stores the water, tankless water heaters use extreme heat to raise the water temperature as it passes though the pipes. The result is that homeowners have instant and continuous hot water. Tankless heaters last approximately twice as long as traditional tanks and provide energy savings by using less water and reduced power consumption by only heating water when it is needed.

Not only do tankless water heaters provide the above benefits and more, they can also help the resale value of your home. One of the reasons is that tankless water heater systems take up significantly more space than do tank-style systems, and when it comes to selling a home, square footage equals money. The more useful a room is, the more money you may be able to get.

You can add resale value to your home, as real estate agents use tankless water heaters as a selling point. Remember the rule – square footage equals money. The more useful room you have the more you will get. There have been several instances where homeowners were able to recover the cost of a tankless installation because of the added money they received through the sale of their home – in the meantime, they never ran out of hot water and they saved up to 40 percent on their energy bills. When prospective buyers analyze the expected utility expenses of a home, a tankless water heating system becomes a major selling point.

So if you’re in the market for a water heater or looking for a replacement for a worn out, aging electric hot water tank, make the move to a tankless water heating system today. It will provide continuous hot water, continuous peace of mind and could help you make a significant amount of money down the road.

Claim your 2011 Tax Credits for Tankless Water Heaters

On February 9, 2012, in Tankless Water Heaters, by Steve Teneriello

Time is rapidly running out for you to take advantage of a tax credit for installing a tankless water heating system. The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 signed by President Obama on December 17, 2010, extended tax credits for qualifying energy-efficient, residential water heaters and boilers placed in service [...]

Time is rapidly running out for you to take advantage of a tax credit for installing a tankless water heating system.

The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 signed by President Obama on December 17, 2010, extended tax credits for qualifying energy-efficient, residential water heaters and boilers placed in service between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011. The structure is similar to the 2009-2010 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, however, the credit amount has changed. Water heaters are still required to have an energy factor >= 0.82 or a thermal efficiency >= 90%, and boilers must have an AFUE >= 95.

The tankless water heater or boiler must be installed in or on the taxpayers’ principal residence in the United States.

The tax credit is ONLY available for existing homes.

How to claim your tax credit for 2011

For qualified improvements, homeowners may be able to claim tax credits equal to 10 percent of the installed costs (up to $500 maximum). The extended tax credit is in effect for all qualifying systems and products installed during the 2011 calendar year and expires on December 31, 2011.

The tax credit applies as a direct reduction of taxes owed. In the past, IRS has directed taxpayers to use Form 5695 (the Residential Energy Efficient Property Credit). It is expected that the IRS will produce new rules related to the recently enacted stimulus legislation, giving taxpayers further guidance on claiming tax credits. To fully understand how the new tax credit may apply to you and what you can do to obtain one, you should consult with a tax professional. Subject to IRS regulations. Customers should consult a tax professional for advice on tax preparation. Qualified products or systems installed during 2009 and 2010 may also qualify for a tax credit equal to 30 percent of the installed costs (up to $1,500).

Again, the heating, cooling, water heater or boiler equipment or system must be placed in service between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011. The IRS defines “placed in service” as when the product is ready and available for use. The heating, furnace, air conditioner, water heater, tankless water heater or boiler must be installed in or on the taxpayer’s principal residence in the United States.

For more information or to schedule a tankless water heater installation, please call Feehan Plumbing, Heating and Cooling at (484) 352-2643.

Tankless Water Heater Warranties and Life Expectancy

On January 24, 2012, in Tankless Water Heaters, by Steve Teneriello

A tankless water heater, known also as an instantaneous or on-demand water heater, heats water as needed rather than a traditional storage system that heats an entire tank of water. This not only saves energy, but because tankless systems are so much smaller, they save a great deal of space. Tankless systems have a longer life span than tank-style systems, so their warranties are different. Here is more information on tankless water heater warranties and life expectancy.

Tankless water heater warranties

A tankless water heater warranty normally covers the parts and heat exchanger separately. Like the tank is to a tank-style water heater, the heat exchanger is to a tankless system. The typical tankless warranty covers the heat exchanger for 10 years and the rest of the parts for three to five years.

A tankless water heater system is expected to last 20 years (much more on this later). Manufacturers of all products, not just tankless water heaters, typically set their warranties at half of the product’s expected life span. The warranty of your dishwasher, for examples, is about half of its life expectancy.

One advantage of a tankless system is that even if the heat exchanger fails after its warranty period, for example, you can either buy a new heat exchanger or replace the entire system. If a tank fails, you do not have this kind of choice.

Factors that determine a tankless system’s life expectancy

Period of time – While the average tank-style system typically lasts 10-15 years, a tankless system, as stated previously, is expected to last at least 20 years. That lifespan can be extended even further by replacing the heat exchanger rather than the whole unit.

Maintenance – As with any product, regular maintenance is necessary in order for that product to reach its maximum life span and beyond. Have your tankless system cleaned periodically by a service technician who will use a flush kit. It is normally recommended that you have this done on an annual basis. There are some models, however, that eliminate the need for periodic maintenance because they are self-flushing. Either way, if a tankless system becomes clogged it will perform an automatic shut-off in order to prevent permanent damage, and that will require a re-start.

Water – The kind of water flowing through your tankless system is probably the biggest determinant in regard to life span. If your water is too acidic or too hard, you will probably have to have it treated. Water that is too acidic can cause corrosion, while water that is too hard will cause a build-up of minerals or scale and could void your warranty.

Installation and other considerations – Obviously, correct installation is key to a tankless system’s life span. In addition, a gas system has to be properly vented or it can lead to a hazardous condition. There are some tankless systems that can be installed outdoors, but you have to make sure that the freeze protection safeguard works properly, and you must be aware that if the power goes out the freeze protection system can fail. Most warranties do not cover damage that occurs due to freezing.

If you have any questions regarding tankless water heater warranties and life expectancy, call Feehan Plumbing, Heating and Cooling at (484) 352-2643.

Tankless water heater technology has remained largely unchanged for many years because it still works well today. There are several benefits of installing a tankless water heater, and here are a few of them.

 

Energy efficiency

A traditional water heater uses a tank that heats and stores water. While you always have hot water on hand, you still need constant energy in order to keep the water in the tank hot. This is a wasteful, energy-inefficient system. A tankless system only works on demand, when it senses that a hot water faucet has been activated. That results in not only less energy used, but lower utility costs as well. A tankless system can be as much as 30 percent more energy efficient than a tank water heater system.

 

Operational efficiency

Tankless systems can be powered by electricity, natural gas or propane, and most models can heat water much faster at less cost. An electric tankless system is best installed during the construction of a new home because existing homes may not have the necessary hook-ups or venting. For a new home, the cost difference between installing a tankless system and a tank water heater is not that significant.

 

Durability

While the average tank heater has a span of 10 years, a tankless water heater is designed to last at least twice as long. The reason is that they are not subjected to the same kind of corrosion that can doom a tank heater.

 

Space savings

One of the biggest benefits of installing a tankless water heater is its size. They are a mere fraction of the size of tank heaters, and therefore obviously take up less space. They are perfect for small homes and condominiums where space can be rather cramped. And they can even be installed outside of a home.

A tankless system is typically more expensive than a tank heater, but the cost is comparable to that of a high-efficiency tank heater. And since these are especially desirable, a tankless system will add value to your new home.

Feehan Plumbing, Heating and Cooling professionals are experts in the installation and service of tankless water heater systems. For more information on the services we offer, please call (484) 352-2643.

5 Replacement Tips for Your Furnace Filter

By frequently replacing the filter within your home furnace, you cannot only benefit economically but you can also experience numerous health benefits. A clean furnace filter will not just lower your overall heating bill each month, but it will also keep the proper amount of air flowing at a consistent pace, which will minimize dust and allergens within the home. To ensure that you receive the aforementioned benefits, have a look at the furnace filter replacement tips below.

  • Purchase multiple filters – As a general rule, filters for your furnace can be somewhat expensive; however, if you choose to buy them in a bundle – such as two or more – then the price is drastically reduced per furnace filter. By purchasing furnace filters ahead of time, you will have one readily available when yours need to be replaced meaning that you will more likely to actually replace the furnace filter when needed.
  • Purchase higher quality filters – Believe it or not, the quality of the furnace filter makes an incredible difference. By purchasing a higher quality furnace filter, you can rest assured that it will last longer in addition to the ability to control more types of airborne particles. When looking for filters, examine the side of the filter or the filter’s packaging for the MERV number, which is the Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. The higher this number, the higher the quality of the furnace filter.
  • Change the filter frequently – Your furnace filter should be replaced at least once each three months, which is four times a year. However, if you have pets in the home or just recently had remodeling work performed on the house, then it is vital you examine your furnace filter on a more consistent basis to ensure that it is replaced at the most appropriate time.
  • Purchase a pleated filter – Generally, there are two types of filters: pleated and fiberglass. A fiberglass furnace filter is the cheaper of the two; however, dust is accumulated much easier and the filter is more susceptible to clogging. When the filter becomes clogged, the efficiency of the furnace is lowered and your energy bill will increase due to the increased energy consumption. The chances that your furnace fails and breaks down is also heightened. A pleated furnace filter, on the other hand, is much more efficient in terms of keeping particles under control. They may be more expensive, but they are a much better value overall.
  • Purchase a reusable filter – The absolute best value that you can purchase when it comes to furnace filters is a reusable furnace filter. A reusable filter can be washed and then replaced in the furnace. However, if you don’t clean the filter often enough, it could become impossible meaning that a new one will be required.

5 Furnace Maintenance Safety Tips

In terms of furnace safety, the best form of advice that can be given is to not fall under the trap to carbon monoxide, which is a gas that is colorless, odorless and tasteless in addition to being lethal when CO is present in large concentration levels. CO is created when a furnace has not been properly maintained and the process of fuel-burning is cut short. Just like a person, a furnace needs to be breathe making it vital that the heating unit had proper ventilation. A fresh-air intake installed may be necessary and CO alarms throughout the house may be appropriate as well. Your furnace should further be checked frequently by a trained and qualified heating technician.

If you smell gas and have a gas furnace in the home, you need to leave immediately. Take your cell phone or stop at a neighbor’s house to use their phone so that the gas company and/or a repair technician can be called. If you are able, find the gas main on the exterior of your home and shut it off.

Aside from the above, here are additional furnace safety tips:

Clean or change the filter frequently –  By far the easiest of them all, you just need to change your disposable filters regularly or clean your permanent filters thoroughly monthly at minimum.

Examine the furnace exhaust vent – Make certain that there are no obstructions in the way of the vent pipe including but not limited to leaves, animals nests and additional debris. In addition, make sure snow or ice is not present in the roof exhaust vents.

Turn off the motor and fully examine the furnace blower motor – You should carefully vacuum the blower motor to suck up any accumulated dirt and if the owner’s manual for your furnace recommends it, oil the motor. In addition, the v-belt and furnace pulleys should be fully examined for wear and tear. If the belt moves over an inch when it is pushed, you need to tighten it.

Maintain the entire furnace area – Ensure that the entire furnace area is completely clean and doesn’t contain anything that it shouldn’t – such as wet clothes for drying!

Examine the flue assembly – After it has cooled from use, check the position in addition to the firmness of the flue assembly. From the top of the furnace unit to the ceiling, it should be a straight line and the flue should be securely attached to the furnace collar. Look for loose wiring anywhere near or around the flue – if found, move and secure it away from the pipe.

9 Tips on Choosing a Qualified Heating Contractor

Just as important as it is to choose the proper heating system for your home, it is vital that you choose a qualified heating contractor for the installation of your brand new furnace. In order for your furnace to operate efficiently and safely, proper installation as well as maintenance is crucial. Here are a few tips that will help you choose a professional heating contractor that has years of experience and can provide a flawless, accurate installation.

  • If you aren’t familiar with a heating contractor, ask around. Word of mouth is how most contractors get the jest of their business. Ask your family members, co-workers and your friends for recommendations.
  • Never choose a heating contractor that is willing to give you a full estimate over the telephone without actually coming out to your home and examining the job that needs to be performed.
  • If you are working with a heating contractor that doesn’t recommend the purchase of a high-efficiency heating system then you shouldn’t trust him. A contractor that is up-to-date on the newest technology and is well trained in their industry, they won’t try to steer you away from the newer, better designs. It’s as simple as that.
  • Ensure that the heating contractor comes to your home and performs a full survey. You also want to make certain that his estimate is based on the heat-load calculation.
  • Ensure that the contractor takes plenty of time to examine your home to ensure that you have the appropriate size heating system. A good, professional heating contractor won’t base the size of your new heating system (or what is going to be) on your current heating system.
  • The contractor should request information from you regarding any previous heating problems then offer you an explanation for each of your heating problems in a way that you can actually understand it.
  • The contractor should have no problem estimating how much your energy bills should average annual for the suggested equipment for your home.
  • A quality contractor will take the time to provide you with a written or printed bid or proposal that will display the equipment that needs to be installed, the work that needs to be done as well as the price. The quoted price will – or should – include costs for labors.
  • You should get quotes/estimates from several contractors; however, make certain that the price itself isn’t the only thing that you use as a basis of choice. A more qualified contractor will probably charge more at first, but in the long run, it will be worth the price as it is a better overall value. A bid that is extremely low should bring up a red flag as they are probably trying to get rid of outdated or unreliable equipment. Alternatively, the price could be without routine services or warranties.
  • A highly reliable heating contractor is going to be professional, courteous and prompt. The way that the contractor treats you from the get-go is a true reflection of how you will be treated later down the road when or if problems arise. Find a company that has a shop or an office and will be happy to accommodate an in-person visit. This shows that the company, as well as the contractor, is established and well-grounded.
