Frequently Asked Questions


  • How much does it cost to install a tankless heater? The initial cost is higher than a tank due to the unit price and installation complexity, but the long-term energy savings and 20-year lifespan often offer a superior ROI.
  • Why is my hot water rusty? This usually indicates the glass lining of your steel tank has cracked and the metal is rusting. This cannot be repaired; the tank must be replaced immediately before it bursts.
  • Do you install electric water heaters? Yes. We install electric tanks and the new hybrid heat pump water heaters, which are incredibly efficient for all-electric homes.
  • How long does a replacement take? A standard tank swap takes 2-4 hours. A tankless conversion typically takes a full day due to the gas and vent modifications.
  • What is an anode rod? It is a "sacrificial" metal rod inside the tank that attracts rust so the tank itself doesn't corrode. Replacing it every 3-5 years can double your tank's life.

Thornport, OH Insights: Population,
Zip Codes, Influence, and Service Areas

Thornport is an unincorporated village laid out by Dr. W. W. Talbott in 1839, when his private improvement company dug a private feeder canal to connect Thorn Township to the main body of Licking Summit Reservoir in Fairfield and Licking counties. Dr. Talbott and his wife's family, the Hoshors, owned a quarter section of land in Section 4, acquired from the US government and from which Thornport was platted. Thornport developed quickly in the early 19th century with the canal trade, with Thorn Township grain held at a large warehouse, and visitors staying at a large hotel. But after a mid-century storm, all fell to ruin, until a nearby railroad stabilized the pioneer village with traffic and visitors. At least one log cabin remains in Thornport, a testament to its early pioneer days and the canal trade. The Licking Summit Reservoir was since renamed Buckeye Lake.
