"The Sila technician spent as much time as necessary to diagnose the problem with my furnace. He explained his findings every step of the way. Communication from the company regarding service visits and arrival of parts from their distributor was excellent. The cost of the repair was reasonable. Overall, I was very impressed by Sila and would definitely use them again."

"Brian was very professional in all aspects of this project. I described what I was looking for in a water heater and he was able to recommend a quality heater at a great price. Installation was smooth and I am very happy with both the heater and his work. I will avail myself to Brianâ s services in the future."

"Replaced a tank water heater, the door was too narrow so first pitched removing framing with no guarantee that it’d be replaced correctly. I suggested using a smaller sized unit based on a quote from another plumber which is the route we went. They also covered the overage for the additional cost of the smaller sized unit which was nice but if I wasn’t aware of the option I’m not sure what I would have done. They also only sent one person initially so I helped bring the old unit down and the new one up in between trying to work. Also the breaker to the hot water heater was never flipped back so I’m waiting to see how the unit performs now."

"Matt was incredibly easy to work with. Punctual, fairly priced, flexible, and responsive at any time of day, we hit a homer in by hiring Matt to run gas lines to our new pool heater. Having worked with numerous plumbers over the years, Matt will be getting all of our business moving forward. HIGHLY recommend."

"Louis Schede came to assess my job at my home to replace my hot water heater (at my request), even though he had seen pictures of my hot water heater and knew that it needed to be replaced. His men were extremely professional and skilled - and a pleasure to have in my home. Not only did Louis Schede have the exact same hot water heater that I wanted in stock, during the job, his men detected that I needed a new suspension tank for my oil burner - and managed to replace that as well on the same day - without going outside of my budget. Louis Schede told me that he has been in business for 50 years and it definitely shows. He is a humble guy, and will work within your budget to do the best, possible job. I will be calling Schede & Sons for future plumbing needs. Thank you, Andrea/Greenwich, CT"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Fairfield, 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.
