For a tank water heater, the right size depends on the number of occupants: 30 to 40 gallons for 1 to 2 people, 40 to 50 gallons for 3 to 4 people, and 50 to 80 gallons for larger households. For tankless units, the required flow rate in GPM determines the correct unit size. Phoenician Plumbing assesses your household demand and recommends the right unit for your Williamsburg home.
Real feedback from homeowners who trusted Phoenician Plumbing with their plumbing projects.
"They did a great job on short notice. The plumber came out even earlier than expected and spent the entire day fixing the original problems, laying new pipes, and then fixing new leaks when the water was turned on. I wish more companies had this work ethic and attention to detail."
"Burst pipe emergency on a Sunday night. I was amazed they picked up and had someone to my house within an hour. Stopped the flooding, fixed the pipe, and gave me solid advice on preventing it from happening again."
"Sewer line was backing up into my basement drain. They ran a camera and found tree roots 40 feet in. Hydro-jetted it clean and it has been flowing perfectly for months. Thorough diagnosis saved me a costly replacement."
