"My 21 year old Gas Water Heater finally has stopped working and I started getting quotes for the replacement. I contacted 4-5 companies via Angi and 3 more from Google. I texted pictures of my old Water Heater to potential contractors and had multiple phone and text conversations. Rob, the owner of R.A. Plumbing & Mechanical, offered me a competitive, but not the lowest price, but our 2 phone calls and his detailed explanation and answering my questions - that's what convinced me to give this project to him and his team. Rob explained me the difference between brands, models, and tank sizes, discussed a tankless solution, and offered to do the work on the same day, which was important for me on December 1st in Chicago. Rob emailed me the detailed estimate with a convenient way to accept it electronically and after I accepted it, he sent the team who did a great job. I highly recommend R.A. Plumbing & Mechanical and personally Rob for any plumbing projects you may have."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Lakeview, IL

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.
