"From the staff I spoke with over the phone to the technician that came, the experience was excellent and trusting. I had a difficult time trying to find the right company that was familiar with my water heater model, I was reassured that Washington Water Heaters had several technicians that knew my water heater model. I had contacted at least 7 vendors, in which 3 responded; however, Washington Water Heaters was the only company that sent someone out that actually looked at and diagnosed my problem. A temporary fixed was completed on arrival and a follow-up a few days later with a new parts. I felt that the service and follow-up from the technician to the staff over the phone was superb! Thanks."

"My water heater died last week. I went on Home Advisor and received a number of calls. One from George at Stream Water Heaters. We discussed my problem. George requested Photos of the heater and the area around the heater. Within 30mins I received an estimate. The price was totally reasonable for equipment and install. The water heater from a well known company and carried a better than good warranty. I received an install time of 6pm next day. The team remved the old water heater, replaced an obsolete valve, and installed the new water heater. I had numerous questions. All my questions were answered in the most courteous manner. The professionalism, expertise, and timeliness of George's Team were exceptional. Highly recommend this company."

"Great. I received 3 bids and Drain Pro's was the most competitive and thorough. We scheduled a date, and installation was done in a day. They removed my old electric water heater and were tidy and very professional. I paid by check as they left. Now I will have to install an electrical outlet next to the heater but meanwhile, it's on an extension cord... Looking forward to 24-hour hot water, and a lower electric bill!"

"I recently had the pleasure of having RossCo Plumbing upgrade my water heater set up in my home and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From the moment I contacted Richie, the owner, he was incredibly responsive and courteous. He took the time to explain the process thoroughly and provided a clear, fair estimate with no hidden fees. Richie’s team arrived on time and were professional and efficient throughout the entire job. They were respectful of my home, ensuring everything was clean and tidy before they left. My situation was a little complicated because we also needed to have my furnace replaced by another company, which required my water heater to be removed and then put back after. Richie was kind enough to help me out by coming out and taking care of all of that for me, including coordinating with the furnace company so that everything was seamless. Richie’s hands-on approach and commitment to customer satisfaction were evident in every interaction. He personally followed up after the job to ensure everything was working perfectly and that I was completely satisfied. It’s difficult to find such genuine dedication and personal touch in businesses these days. Overall, my experience with RossCo Plumbing was outstanding. If you’re looking for reliable, skilled, and courteous professionals in Puyallup, WA, look no further than RossCo Plumbing. They truly go above and beyond to ensure their customers are happy, and it’s clear they take great pride in their work. Thank you, Richie and the RossCo team, for making what could have been a stressful situation completely hassle-free. I will definitely be using your services again in the future and recommending you to all my friends and family!"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Lakewood, WA

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.
