My existing rental water heater gave up after 10 years, and I had to choose between renting a new one or buying my own. I consulted with James at Flow Teck to help me to make the right decision. Based on the high rate of hot water consumption required by our family we choose to purchase a Rheem High Efficiency Condensing Power Direct Vent unit. James explained to me that this unit will probably reduce our total energy consumption to about 60% of the rental unit, so the decision was simple... The same with the installation; James took care of purchasing the unit and arranged to have it delivered to our address. His crew came in and removed the old unit, arranging to be returned to the recycling facility specified in the rental agreement. They drilled the walls in my basement for the required intake air and exhaust piping, re-routed the gas lines and installed the water heater in less than 4 hours. At the same time they have done a direct exterior venting arrangement for my existing furnace, which allowed the furnace to draw combustion air from outside, so we could have our basement completely isolated. Excellent work by an experienced crew: precise, clean, and efficient. And James was right – my gas bill dropped a lot! I highly recommend this contractor.
