"I’ve used Anthony Heating & Plumbing for close to 8 years. They’ve replaced heating/A/C and water heater. They also have done some plumbing, fixed a sump pump issue, installed new PVC pipes for better flow and do annual general maintenance on my A/C and heater. They are punctual, friendly and clean. A few of my neighbors began using them."

"Matthew Pickett came to the house within an hour of my calling on a Sunday morning, cleaned the furnace and got it running within about 20 minutes and didn't charge me anything because we had previously purchased a service agreement. When he was finished he answered a wide range of home equipment maintenance and repair questions and checked the thermostat a second time when the furnace didn't start up as quickly as I thought it should and the furnace has been working perfectly ever since."

"After our water heater was spraying water into the basement. Erick from Arcadia arrived quickly, gave us a fair estimate and was at work that same day with a friendly crew. While they were working they found some corroded pipes that were in bed shape and they added that work on to what they were doing that day, and had everything finished by midafternoon. I was pleased with the work, pleased with the price, and pleased with the friendly service. Erick is a super nice guy! And his team was great. They are a contractor service so they do all types of jobs. I’ll definitely be using them again!"

"Corum Plumbing Heating & Cooling in Lee's Summit, MO, is known for reliable 24/7 service and expert plumbing repairs. Aaron Houseman, the technician who handled my Saturday emergency, was professional and knowledgeable. He arrived promptly, quickly diagnosed the leak under my bathroom cabinet, replaced both water valves and supply lines, and installed a new faucet I had purchased. He explained every step and provided a clear quote before beginning work. The job was completed efficiently and expertly, and the new faucet looks and functions perfectly. Aaron made sure everything worked correctly before leaving, which gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Aaron Houseman and Corum Plumbing for their courtesy, expertise, and thorough work. The company truly stands out for dependable emergency response and pride in craftsmanship. Fantastic service from start to finish—stress-free and trustworthy. I would definitely use them again."

"Had service on my 45 year old Coleman C/A unit,it kept kicking out the circuit breaker. Due to its age I thought most wouldn't even try to repair it, just push for a new install, but he thoroughly serviced and cleaned it, now it's running like a top, nice and cool. I highly recommend calling Bill first if you have an older unit that needs serviced, and not ready for a pricey new install."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Independence, MO

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.
