"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."

"Responded to my request immediately. Our conversation included me sending picks of the replacement. With that got an instant quote and set a date for the work. Showed up on time. Job took a bit longer as my old water heater was loaded with deposits so draining was longer than expected. Nice that quote didn't change. Rich and John were very friendly, professional and followed up immediately with the paperwork that I needed to satisfy my condo association. They also advised me on how to service my water heater myself annually to keep it running efficiently. During the service my neighbor saw my old water heater outside and after seeing their work booked his replacement. Definitely recommend this company and will use them again."

"Total Mechanical Systems went the extra mile. In one week they fixed my water heater and the igniter on my furnace. They were prompt and did exactly what they said. Their service techs are knowledgeable, and when the tech who came to my house couldn't diagnose the problem, he called in a more seasoned tech. They both worked on it for some time but only charged me the $99 diagnostic fee. Well done!"

"I have to say I was a bit skeptical to use Roto Rooter.  I had heard of conflicting comments and reviews online. <br /> I was dealing with some contractors regarding a blocked, possibly broken sewer line on my property and I never felt I was their priority.  <br /> Tired of the lack of communication and always getting the "run around" I contacted Roto Rooter. <br /> Roto Rooter (Mike ) came early the next morning to accommodate my work schedule.  After running a camera through the line, he suggested "jetting" - running a high pressure water jet to clear blockages and cut out all the roots. <br /> Arriving again early the following day, the jetting was completed in under two hours and was in the clear!  No Excavating Needed! <br /> (You Rock John!) <br /> Knowing what I know now thru my experience, I only wish my first call was to them!  They exceeded all my expectations.  I will be using Roto Rooter going forward.  Lesson learned! <br /> <br /> <br />"

"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."

"My project was handled professionally all the way through. I knew that it would be a difficult project -- that entailed removing low-hanging old radiator heating pipes in my basement and refeeding 4 radiators with pex tubing. The crew worked efficiently, cleaned up well, and communicated progress. When the system wasn't working properly, Ed worked with me to determine options, and honestly noted that a mechanical engineer might give us better advice. We then followed that plan and my system is working great. A great value!"

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