What's the best choice in water heaters for conserving energy?
Other than your furnace, water heating is often the single largest cause of your home’s gas or electric bill. Improvements here often pay for themselves quickly and reap huge rewards for your small investment.
When it comes to choosing from the various options for water heating, each person’s situation is unique. We are able to install a wide range of top-brand electric water heaters, Rinnai tankless gas water heaters, and instant hot water heaters. What works best for you is determined by reviewing your household and its water use.
How many people live in your house?
Do they all need to shower at about the same time?
Do you have more than one bath?
Do you have several appliances that use hot water simultaneously?
How long are the lines from the water heater to an outlet?
Do you frequently need short, quick supplies of hot water at a sink?
Is your home all-electric?
There are other questions, too, to consider. Each can have a significant effect on your water heater's cost, efficiency, and usefulness. Since every situation is different, it’s impossible to say which option is best without a review of your personal situation. The good news is that there ARE many great options, today, for significantly reducing water-heating costs. We’re available to discuss the options with you – just give us a call (316) 799-3212.
We're limited to using one plumbing fixture at a time because the pressure is too low. How do we fix this?
This problem is typically an issue with the water service, or with the pipes in the house. It’s too often assumed that the water pressure is inadequate. Actually, the pressure may be OK, with simply a limit on the volume of water able to pass through the system. Many homes built before 1975 have galvanized water service lines, and many homes built before 1965 have galvanized piping throughout the house. Galvanized pipe rusts over time. Eventually the pipe fills with rust, choking the flow of water. Many homes see a major benefit by replacing the water service line, thus allowing them to run multiple fixtures — simultaneously — without the water volume dropping. If you would like to have this done – give us a call. We’ll be happy check your home and give you a quote.
How do I find the water shut-off valve for the house?
There are several locations possible for the water shut-off valve, that shuts off the water supply to your house. It depends mainly on what kind of foundation you have.
CONCRETE SLAB:
If your house is simply mounted on a concrete slab, with no space under it, the main shut-off valve is usually in a closet nearest to the water meter, OR next to the water heater location.
CRAWL SPACE:
If your house has a crawl space under it, the main shut-off valve is usually in the bedroom closet nearest to the water meter, OR just inside the crawl space opening, OR in the garage.
BASEMENT:
If your house has a basement under it, the main shut-off valve is usually at the foundation wall nearest to the water meter. If the location for your type of foundation isn’t the answer, try some of the other answers above. If you still can’t find it…:
Search the basement & garage.
Check the laundry/utility room.
Check around the water heater.
Search every closet and crawl space in the house.
Check around your porch & foundation.
Keep in mind that the shutoff valve may be covered by a panel, hatch or housing.
Additional shut-off valves for sections of your plumbing, or specific appliances, may be found around them. This typically includes the plumbing around the water heater, behind washing machines and dishwashers, under sinks and toilets, behind a panel in the wall on the opposite side of the wall from your tub or other bathroom fixtures (or in the basement directly under them), and near other major plumbing appliances. Remember that many appliances have TWO separate shut-off valves– one for hot water and one for cold water. Don’t wait for an emergency! When everything is OK, take a few minutes to find out where your shut-off valve is. In an emergency, knowing where it is can often enable you to prevent extensive damage to your home and belongings. Also locate the other shut-off valves, for future reference.

My water bill this month is high, and my usage hasn’t changed. Is the local water department overcharging me?
Typically, this tends to be a leak in the water service line. Homes built before 1975 commonly use galvanized pipe for their service line, which can be vulnerable to breaks. Most of the time, it’s more cost-effective to just install a new water service line, than to hunt for the leak in the old one. If it’s a copper or plastic continuous line, it might be worth the cost to search for the leak — but generally we recommend replacement. We have some simple tests to figure out if there’s a leak in the water service line. Sometimes, though, the water department may bill you based on a usage average. After they’ve read your meter, the bill reflects the difference between your actual usage and the amount they already billed you. If you’re unsure, and want help, give us a call and we’ll be happy to help you figure it out.

"Their service was excellent!"
I would recommend Bowers Plumbing. They scheduled us for repair right away. The technician wears booties over shoes, so there was no tracking on the floor. They repaired my toilet and left the area cleaned up. Plus we have a one-year warranty!
- Pamela S.
"Will get plumbing needs done by them!"
We had a Bosch dishwasher that we bought from Costco and they said they would install and they didn’t. We contacted Bower’s Plumbing and showed up on time and prepared. David the plumber was super nice and knowledgeable.
- Tony C.
"Great service!"
Tylor replaced a sewage lift in my basement. He was quick, courteous, and organized with his work. I’m very satisfied with Bowers and recommend them to anyone needing plumbing repair work.
- Chris K.
"Very impressed!"
They assessed the problem and gave me an estimate with two choices. They began fixing it, had a bit of a change, and let me know of that change right away. I was so impressed with their manners, professionalism, and ability to fix the problem right away.
- Valeria W.
"Couldn’t express my gratefulness enough!"
My outside cooling system went out and I called and was scheduled for the next day after calling other companies. Even on my scheduled appointment day, I was pushed up and Robert was sent to me and he is a GOD SEND!!
- Kierra W.
"We would choose them again and again!"
Andrew and Wyatt were wonderful!! Very polite and took the time to work with us and explain what to expect. This was an extremely dirty job and they worked very hard to make sure the dirt and dust did not enter the rest of the house.
- Diana S.
"Well done!"
Bowers and their repair technician provided excellent service communication, and punctuality, were knowledgeable, and were responsibly efficient. I do not hesitate to recommend Bowers Plumbing for peace of mind of a competitively-priced job.

"Robert was an awesome technician."
He took the time to discuss everything with my elderly father to ensure he understood it. Did a great job of keeping his work areas clean and dry while it was raining and even hauled off the old AC filter... much appreciated! I would recommend them!
