"The plumber can over the same day and examined what needed to be done. Installation of a leak detector. A quote was generated and it was approved. The plumber arrived on time Sat morning and had everything ready to go. Well organized. Work was completed on time and we only had to have the water off for 2 hours. Not cheap but reasonable/competitive and they show up and get it done."

"Excellent service, prompt, professional, helpful, and friendly.  Answered all of my many questions, even when I had one more after he was already in his truck set to go.  I will definitely use them again and not just for heating concerns if I need a plumber they also do plumbing.

"Richard was just awesome. He installed my hot water heater that I had been without for 3 days. He responded to my inquiry right away and when I called him to come over he was here in 1 1/2 hours. He was very nice, neat and reasonable. I highly recommend Richard. He will be my go to plumber from now on!"

"Hector and his helper got the old water heater taken out, a tankless one installed, and a water softener and filter installed in one day. Normally this job would take about a day and a half. Hector is very easy to work with, answers questions in a way that’s easy to understand, and has competitive rates. I highly recommend HB Plumbing."

"Our appointment times was set. 2 hour window. In the middle of that time they called to say the would be late or need to postpone. The communication was nice, but it would have been better to keep the scheduled appointment time. In the end the tech needed to go back to his shop twice for parts. A job which should have been completed about 10am dragged on until 5pm. In the end the work was good and their communication was good, but I think I paid some of his time driving back and forth which should not have been my problem."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Carmel By The Sea, CA

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.
