Know your Carrollton house
Clay soil causes slab movement. Carrollton spans Dallas, Denton and Collin counties.
Many homes were built from the 1970s to the 1990s. Many mid-century homes keep the water heater in a garage or utility closet, where code may call for raising it off the floor. Carrollton has one of the largest Korean business districts in North Texas.
Flushing sediment once a year helps a tank last longer and run quieter. Many homes have gas water heaters in the garage.
Local rules
In Texas, water heater work is plumbing work done by plumbers who hold a license from the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. Replacing a water heater usually needs a permit from the City of Carrollton Building Inspection division, since venting, gas lines and relief valves all have to meet code.
Who runs what: the City of Carrollton for water, the city's sewer system, with treatment by the Trinity River Authority and Dallas for wastewater and the City of Carrollton Building Inspection division for permits. Josey Ranch Lake is a city park and library site. The Elm Fork of the Trinity River runs through the city.

Is a tankless water heater worth it?
It can save space and run longer showers, but it costs more up front and may need a bigger gas line or new wiring. A pro can tell you what your home would need.
What size water heater do I need?
It depends on household size and peak use. A pro can size it based on how many showers and appliances run at once.
Any Carrollton details worth mentioning when I call?

Do I need an expansion tank?
