"This company exceeds my expectations. Austin is knowledgeable and strives to meet all your needs. I hired him to replace a hot water heater, but he ended up finishing other plumbing projects that my renovation contractor failed out. Justin also came to assist and was great. This is my forever go to Plumbing Company."

Keep Smiling Plumbing Electric Heating and Cooling is a family-owned, family-operated, full-service plumbing electric and HVAC business, serving Gwinnett County, Georgia. We are Master Plumbers and members of the Plumbing & Mechanical Association of Georgia. Keep Smiling Plumbing & Electric is there when you need us, ready to take care of any problem that you may have with your plumbing or electrical systems. We also have available a full line of quality replacement products if you want to upgrade or update.

"The manager I spoke with told me that there wasn't any way the damage of the pump could come from the technician doing a drain and flush of the water heater. He told me that it would cost $1200 to replace the pump on the water heater. After speaking with the manager at Keep Smiling, I called another company which I've seen before in the community and spoke with a plumber and explained to him what happened. The technician at the other company told me that the pump could definitely be damaged if the pump was still plugged up and not turned off while the water heater was being drained and flush. I called the manager at Keep Smiling and shared those details with him and he replied that he understands what I'm saying but there was nothing he could do about it. I told him that I don't have any reason to lie about any of this and felt very frustrated and cheated by the fact that I went in expecting for them to do a maintenance check for $59 for plumbing but ended up spending a $1000 for new."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Buford, GA

Warning signs include fluctuating water temperatures, a pilot light that repeatedly goes out, unusual noises from the tank, or complete heating failure. You might also detect a rotten egg smell, indicating a potential gas leak, or notice water that never reaches the proper temperature. If your water heater is over eight years old and displaying these symptoms, the gas valve is a likely culprit. Professional inspection is recommended, especially if gas odors are present.

Water heater gas valves are not universally interchangeable. Each valve must match your specific water heater's make, model, and specifications. Important compatibility factors include gas type (natural gas vs. propane), BTU rating, connection types, and physical dimensions. Using an incorrect valve can result in poor performance, premature failure, or dangerous gas leaks. Always consult your water heater's documentation or a professional plumber to identify the appropriate replacement valve for your unit.
