Advantages Of Electric Water Heater

Electric water heaters offer several advantages, making them a popular choice for homeowners in Seattle. Choosing an electric system for your home comes with several benefits:

Lower Initial Cost: These systems generally have a more affordable purchase price compared to their gas counterparts, making them an attractive option for budget-conscious homeowners.
High Efficiency: Modern units are designed to convert nearly all the electricity they use into heat, reducing energy waste and helping you save on utility bills.
Increased Safety: Since they don’t rely on combustion, these systems eliminate the risks of gas leaks and carbon monoxide, offering a safer option for indoor use.
Space-Saving Design: With no need for vent pipes, these systems can be installed in smaller spaces, making them ideal for homes with limited room.
Simplified Installation: Most homes already have the necessary wiring in place, making installation straightforward and often less expensive than installing a gas system, which requires venting and additional infrastructure.
Eco-Friendly Option: If your home is powered by renewable energy, this choice can help reduce your carbon footprint, offering a more sustainable solution.
Quiet Operation: These units run quietly, making them less intrusive and more comfortable for everyday use.

For Seattle homeowners, these advantages make choosing this type of system a smart, reliable option for ensuring a steady supply of hot water year-round.

Ben's responded quickly to a small leak that had developed. They quoted us a rate to find the leak (which they promptly did with a minimum of opening ceiling/wall space). They then quoted us a rate to repair the leak, and then proceeded to do a fine job. Highly recommend.

The plumbing at our rental house backed up and caused a flood. We hired a local roto-rooter company to come out and clear the line - lots of money but at least they were fast. Two weeks later, our tenants called - basement flooded again and they weren't happy. It was a Saturday and I was out of town. Based on these reviews, I called Ben's Plumbing. Ben called me back within 15 mins. He explained that the costs on the weekend were much higher - but he could stop by the house and see if he could make a temporary fix to hold until Monday. And he did! Then Monday his plumber snaked our line, put a camera down, and found the original roto-rooter guys only cleared the line to a point - creating a jam just beyond that point. From start to finish, Ben kept me informed, the costs were very reasonable, and the work was professional. Plus, he's a really nice guy. Ben's the guy to call!

Have used this service a number of times. This weekend my water heater started leaking and since it was almost 18 years old, clearly needed replacing. Did not have time for multiple estimates but I got two estimates. Ben's crew came out on a Sunday morning early and finished in a timely fashion. They even came in under their original estimate. The other estimate was several hundred dollars more and would have Ben several days later. I am very happy with the service and the water heater heats up faster than my old one.

I hired Ben's to take care of the plumbing for two bathroom fluffs in our home - the first visit involved removing the old faucets and the second visit was to install new faucets and a (tricky) Kohler Reach toilet. I can't remember the first plumber's name, but Nick did the installs and they were both great to work with. Nick even hauled away our old toilets. With both encounters the experience was positive in every way - they were responsive, able to come out fairly quickly, professional, and cleaned-up well after they were done. Their pricing seemed reasonable, too. We'll definitely use them again.

Your technician arrived, got right to work. He replaced an outside faucet and reset my regulator so that I now have the proper water pressure throughout the house. I appreciated that he was very informative with all of my questions. I would use Ben's Plumbing again in the future!

These guys were just incredible. We had kind of a tricky issue with the plumbing under a toilet. We checked three other plumbers and got quotes ranging from $2700 - $4200. And that was just to cut a lead pipe, replace it with modern materials and mount the toilet on a new ring/grease fitting. All the bids included some strange tinker toy like plumbing routing to fix the problem. One plumber suggested that we cut a hole into a plaster wall to gain access to the pipes! Ben's plumbing came in at $1200 and that included a brand new toilet! No strange rerouting of the plumbing. Just an in place repair. The plumber, Nic Huse, was unbelievably competent and efficient. He told us what he intended to do and just...did it. In about 2.5 hours. No fuss, no muss. If I could give these guys six stars out of five, I would.

Ben's Plumbing is AWESOME! They are very responsive, very flexible, very communicative and great to work with! The team had great knowledge and provided suggestions over the phone to attempt to unclog a pipe. They were able to squeeze me into their schedule and it was great because they helped resolve an issue before it became a larger issue. Brian came out and helped provided some preventative support as well. Great, honest people and I recommend them 1000%!

Ben is always the guy I want on the job, and for the past couple years he's been quick, responsive, and a professional at the work I've needed him to get done for me. He's the local guy that always has your best interest in mind - for example this last testing work he did, he noticed that whoever performed my last sprinkler testing forgot to turn the system back on! He truly caught & made a life-saving fix for us, which shows his professional knowledge and attention to what's going on around him. Thanks again for the great work and conversation, Ben, see you next year I hope!

Our water heater decided to start leaking at 3pm on a Friday and the team at Ben's Plumbing got back to me quickly, got me a bid that wasnt outrageous, and scheduled me for their first slot on Monday morning. The installers arrived on time, were quick, thoughtful, and did great work. I'd totally recommend Ben's Plumbing to anyone.

Nic from Ben’s Plumbing was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING fixing the leak from our toilet yesterday with skill and finesse! Upon arrival, he immediately expertly assessed the problem(s) and proposed an excellent approach, with options, to resolve the issues. I had complete confidence in his capability to handle the expected and unexpected with this repair. I highly, highly recommend Nic (and Ben’s Plumbing) for any work, and we will be coming back again for additional projects and needed repairs at our house. Nic is an excellent communicator and explained everything clearly to a plumbing novice, answered all of my questions, was extraordinarily neat in opening up the drywall and then tidying up at the end of his work. Because of the blessing to me of Nic, I can now sleep peacefully at night knowing that a trustworthy repair has been completed. Thank you, Nic, and Ben’s Plumbing!

Our engineer was super helpful and got the repair done quickly, including a trip to the hardware store to get the right part for our quirky old house.
