Ben was at our house to quote a new AC unit and went above and beyond what was expected by doing a full inspection of our vent system calling out small fixes that would improve the longevity of our HVAC system. He also provided a floor unit AC to use in our house until the new unit is installed, and he even got that all set up and working for us! We are very happy to be choosing Genz-Ryan for our AC Unit and will be switching our entire HVAC maintenance over to them at well.

I my now the owner of a new air-conditioner and furnace and also some additional electrical work. The service team arrived on time, consisting of Mario, Kyle and Shawn the electrician and immediately got to work. They all were friendly and acted professionally and knowledgeable. J.P. was the first person who came to my home listening to my questions and concerns before making recommendations and giving me a quote. I would recommend Genz-Ryan to my family and friends for heating, cooling and electrical work needed.

Mark helped me with replacing a few switches and a fresh air fan at home. He was knowledgeable in his field, professional, thorough, and courteous. Thanks, Mark! Nice job! 2/11/2026 - Jon Boll from Genz‑Ryan did an outstanding job fixing my bathroom sink faucet. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to walk me through everything he was doing. The work was completed quickly and with great attention to detail. I appreciated his clear communication and the care he took to ensure everything was working perfectly before he left. 9/6 - Steffon Drumgoole came to help me fix a clogged kitchen sink, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. He showed up right on time and was friendly, courteous, professional, and clearly very knowledgeable at what he does. Before starting the work, he explained the different options available and gave me a clear understanding of what each would involve. What I especially appreciated was that he recommended the option that was both effective and cost-effective, rather than trying to sell me something I didn’t need. He did a great job fixing the issue, worked efficiently, and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. It’s refreshing to come across someone who is honest, skilled, and genuinely cares about doing the right thing for the customer. I would definitely recommend Steffon and would be happy to use his services again!

Frequently Asked Questions

See All FAQs

 Is water heater maintenance necessary?

Yes, your water heater should receive regular maintenance at least once a year. Ensure your tank is clear of sediment buildup by draining it completely and refilling it. Benefits of keeping up with water heater maintenance include improved performance, reduced energy consumption, minimized risk of breakdown, and extended service life.

How long do water heaters last?

Storage water heaters can last as long as 15 years, though they’ll start to show their age after 10 years. Tankless water heaters can last for 15 to 20 years. Both unit types will see longer service lives with routine maintenance and quick repairs when needed. You risk premature replacement if you skip maintenance or let water heater problems linger.

What are the benefits of tankless water heaters?

Tankless water heaters offer a lot of unique benefits, including an endless supply of hot water, minimized risk of water damage, improved energy efficiency, reduced utility bills, and less space required for installation.

When should I replace my water heater?

Besides old age, homeowners should look for signs that a replacement is necessary including loss of hot water volume, rising utility bills, corrosion, and frequent need for repairs.

The hybrid water heater system is the most energy-efficient option available, designed to combine advanced technology with sustainability. Featuring built-in EcoNet Wi-Fi technology, it allows you to manage hot water conveniently from your mobile device, track energy usage by week, month, or year, and optimize your heating schedule to avoid cold showers.

Its innovative hot water recirculation system efficiently delivers hot water to your fixtures using a single system, eliminating the need for a separate unit.

Pairing perfectly with solar panels, this system further enhances energy savings, which total up to $10,200 over 10 years. With Energy Star rebates, a 10-year warranty on parts and the tank, and an annual operating cost of just $132 compared to traditional systems costing $577–$1,154 annually, this hybrid water heater offers unmatched performance and cost-efficiency.
