"Erik and Chris were absolutely amazing. Erik’s communication is impeccable—he explained everything clearly, from cost to timing, and made the whole process stress-free. My gas steam boiler failed during one of the coldest winters in decades, and they handled the removal and installation quickly and professionally. The job was done in just a few hours. I couldn’t be happier and highly recommend them.! "

"Do not hire Clear Flow, Rolando or his team. First he took 3 weeks to service the job after multiple reschedules and overcharged for the job once he began. After his team drilled the hole for the dryer vent, I used the stacked unit once and it shifted out of place, unplugged and was stuck in the door. I contacted the owner Rolando for a good faith repair. His usual response time is 1 hour but this time it took seconds for him to respond and say he isn?t and will not do anything. Also even worse - the washer wasn?t hooked up right so the pipes leaked through the wall to the first floor bathroom. Do not hire this pro - very disappointing experience "

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in South Orange, NJ

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.
