"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."

"Found the hot water heating spewing water. Within a couple of hours, Addison from Reddi Services was there. We needed a replacement, which he did within a very short period of time. Addison was efficient, patient with my questions, and respectful of my house. Two days later, our air conditioner wasn't cooling, the afternoon before a predicted heat wave. Vince showed up and started the process of diagnosing the problem. So blessed that the last time we had our air conditioner serviced, Joel recommended a cleaning/coverage plan. Thanks to that, the clogged hose was replaced, the entire unit checked out and cleaned, all at no charge. We've used Reddi Services for years. Wouldn't think of switching!"

"Service was very professional from Angel and Luis. Got the AC unit tuned up and checked it. Cleaned the ac unit and it needed to be leveled out got it all leveled out in no time. We have used this company the last few years and will have them back out in the fall to check out the furnance. Eric and his employees are very professional in every aspect and knowledgeable"

"Outstanding and punctual service! Worked with Erick at Arcadia. He was quick and efficient and got several jobs done right including following up to make sure that the water pressure was set correctly. I like the fact that he was flexible and able to fix multiple things across the board from furnace to plumbing. Have not found a job yet that Arcadia won't take with friendly responsive service. There was an initial service fee of $75 that I thought was going to go away as long as we used their service. I guess I was wrong about that expectation. Other than that they rate a 5 overall!"

"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."

"We hired them because we no longer trusted the huge company we had been with for years. So they came along behind our previous company who had just ASSURED us tHAT BOTH OUR UNITS NEEDED REPLACED AFTER 10 YEARS. Same units we were told would last 15 years when we bought them. Long story short, we could not be more pleased with the wonderful service we got using this company. As we had suspected, neither of our units required replacement, only repairs. Had we known about them sooner, we could have paid nearly half for a thermostat we replaced. Anyone complaining about their fees is clueless about what other companies charge. Donnie comes to our home, I explained that we doubted what the previous company had told us and off to work he went. He was extremely professional, explained himself and the repair process very well, answered my questions very professionally and detailed what he felt would remedy our problems with both units. I had no doubt he was going about the repairs in a way that best served us, and was certainly cheaper than replacing both units. The appt he had prior to us was very difficult and ran him latre, but we were kept informed. I was expecting a very frustrated tech when I welcomed him in, but Donnie met me with a warm smile and was quite pleasant to interact with. We care nothing about fancy work attire or anything else superficial. We simply wanted someone to be honest about what needed done and for that work to be completed by a true professional. This company, especially Donnie delivered exactly what we wanted plus more. We will not hesitate to invite them back and absolutely WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to others who need repairs. Today I hired Donnie to do work at my Mothers home as well, and I am quite confident she too will be more than pleased to know she has a HVAC company she can depend on 100%. Ignore any negative review you may run across, as I always say, there is more to hear than from just one person. Trust them to make things right for you."

"had water backing up through my washer drain late one night, and Jacob came over and snaked the drain for me. He was professional, respectful, and reasonably priced. He got the problem taken care of quickly, and I couldn?t be happier with the service. I would definitely recommend Jacob to anyone needing plumbing work!"

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.
