No hot water · San Diego
Water heater repair & installation
Nine times out of ten this is a part, not a new water heater. We find out which before we quote you.
Diagnosis first
What we check before we quote you.
- Gas supply and burner ignition, or the elements and thermostats on an electric unit
- The thermostat setting and the actual delivered temperature at a tap
- The T&P relief valve and the expansion tank
- Sediment level in the tank and whether a flush buys you real time
- Venting and combustion air, on anything gas
We test the unit before we quote anything. Most of the time it's a thermostat, an element, a thermocouple or a gas valve, and it's a repair. When the tank itself has gone we'll tell you that plainly and price the replacement alongside the repair so you can compare.
