"This is the second time I have had Quinn do work for me and I couldn't be more please with Tom or the work he did. When I put in the quote request he contacted me within seconds and was at my house within an hour to prep the old water heater for removal. The next morning he came right on time with the new water heater and had it up and running in short order. The quote for the job was fair even though he had to leave to get some materials to replace what was there. I'll definitely use Quinn again. If you have plumbing issues, give Tom a call. You won't be sorry."

"Great experience Justin, Nate & Timothy were awesome. Very knowledgeable, professional & curious. Aside from the cleanliness they delivered an experience. I highly recommend HL bowman if you want rapid service on your HVAC. Pricing was reasonable in my opinion & financing is an option. Keep in mind when seeking quotes for your HVAC repair/ new install you must consider performance over equipment, that is if your want a good system that will have a good run/life span."

"I had Michael LeBlanc come over to see if my water heater was serviceable. Unfortunately, it had to be replaced. I was very happy with the quick response time and him scheduling in the replacement service right away. I now have hot water again, and recommend MTL based on this experience."

"Kenny did an excellent job and I give him 5 stars. I was told by the office staff that the installation of the new water heater (under lifetime warranty but only five years old when it needed replacing) would take up to six hours. The actual work time was closer to two and a half hours, most of the time was taken up waiting for the delivery of the new heater as well as half-way through Kenny left for another two hours, maybe even longer, to pick up an expansion tank. I had been quoted a price of $950 for the installation . After the installation the office called to ask how I wanted to pay I challenged this amount and ended up paying $850 instead. - I very much appreciated that Quinns were able and did install the hot water heater so quickly but felt I was taken advantage of financially."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Derby, CT

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.
