FAQ
Common questions
Should I repair or replace my water heater?
If the tank itself is leaking, it needs to be replaced. If it's a part like a thermocouple, gas valve or element on a tank that's otherwise in good shape, a repair usually makes sense. Age matters too, and we'll give you a straight answer.
Why is my water heater making a popping noise?
That's usually sediment built up in the bottom of the tank. Hard water makes it worse. Flushing can help on a newer tank. On an older one, it can be a sign it's near the end.
Is a tankless water heater worth it?
For some homes, yes. It depends on your hot water use, gas supply and venting. We'll look at your setup and give you an honest recommendation.
What should I do if my water heater is leaking?
Turn off the cold water supply valve on top of the tank and shut off the gas or the breaker. Then call us at (248) 674-1971.
