"*AVOID THIS COMPANY: We had an extremely disappointing and concerning experience with H L Bowman and strongly caution others before using this company. In 2019, we hired them to replace an outdoor spigot/hose bib and copper plumbing, which cost $309. That installation ultimately failed within a few years due to what a technician on a recent visit confirmed was an improper initial installation. Fast forward to our recent service call: a technician came out, diagnosed the issue, and quoted us over $700 to replace a simple hose bib with no additional parts required. After questioning the price, they ?discounted? it to $600. Feeling uneasy about the pricing, we asked them to stop the work so we could get a second opinion. Only then did the technician suddenly offer to honor the original 2019 price of $309?raising serious questions about where these pricing numbers were coming from and how such a drastic ?discount? could be offered on the spot. Beyond pricing concerns, we were also unc"

"Finding a reliable contractor is tough these days, but I got lucky hiring Chris. He and his son arrived on time, replaced my electric hot water tank, fixed a leaking guest bathroom sink, and cleaned up afterwards. Chris is a true professional with a great attitude excellent work at a fair price. I highly recommend him."

"We had a standard water tank that failed on Friday July 1. I reached out to Matt with water issues from the tank, but more importantly- to find out options for a replacement. He convinced me to go with a popular and reliable tankless system. I called him at 7:40am, the parts were delivered at 11am and Matt came by at 1pm. By 3:30pm, our new system was operational. Going into a holiday weekend - that was fantastic service!"

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.
