Customers say: Quality work

"I hired this company to replace a 75-gallon gas water heater, and the experience was excellent. Scope of work: Removal and disposal of existing unit Installation of new Rheem 75-gallon gas water heater Reconnection of gas, water, and venting The team was prompt, professional, and clearly experienced. They provided a clear explanation of the installation process, answered questions directly, and completed the work efficiently. I valued their use of text messaging to arrange the work, as it was most efficient and allowed me to share photos of the work area so they could plan the installation in advance. The installation was clean and well-executed, with attention to proper setup and safety considerations. Pricing was transparent and consistent with the scope of work. There were no surprises. Overall, this was a high-quality, professional installation. I would recommend them without hesitation."

"I wanted to replace an out dated oil furnace with an efficient low carbon hvac system that heated my home in the winter and cooled it in the summer. I checked out Angies List for hvac providers in my area, made some comparisons, and contacted vendors. I chose N.E.T.R. based on the reviews on Angies List and the product presentation by the sales rep. for N.E.T.R.
The product performance,installation time frame, and cost matched exactly the proposal submitted to me by N.E.T.R. The technical support staff - Adam and Jose' - installed the Mitsubishi heat pump system with a professional skill level that I found to be reassuring. Russell Dodd, the sales rep., provided detailed support to my various questions. His attention to my product order-installation was more than I expected.
I feel confident that the product and services provided by N.E.T.R. will perform to my expectations.

"We were very pleased with the work that the Genove technicians did. They removed our 40-year-old gas boiler and associated water heater and replaced it with a new system. They tested the new system carefully, put explanatory tags on all of the relevant pipes and faucets, and cleaned up well. The team members were polite and worked hard. We had similarly good experiences when Genove technicians came to repair our central AC system. They were knowledgeable and efficient, got the system going again, and the price was fair. We continue to use this company for heating and AC repairs."

"We have been using them to maintain our AC for a couple of years, and they are always extremely professional, thorough, and honest. We started having major problems with our unit last summer, and they determined that we needed a major repair to our outdoor AC unit. We were dreading the potential cost, but they were able to do the job, and do it extremely well, for much less than we anticipated. I would highly recommend their services!"

"I am a long time customer who pays Rodenheiser a monthly fee which covers annual maintenance and some priority in the event of any necessary repair required. I had an a/c compressor failure. I had to wait 3 weeks to have a technician visit and tell me that the unit’s motor was dead and the compressor needed replacement. Then, after ordering a new compressor, which was available within 3-4 days I was scheduled for an installation 3+ weeks later. I had to complain strenuously and threaten to cancel the order to get the installation moved forward to within 10 days. Apparently being a long time customer and paying a monthly fee for better service means absolutely nothing. The installation went well. Not sure about future relationship."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Needham, MA

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.
