Washington Energy Services has been helping homeowners throughout Western Washington save money and live more comfortably since 1957. As one of the largest home improvement companies in the Seattle-Tacoma area, we are able to provide you with top-quality products and services, installed by our professional craftsmen. Our free in-home estimates ensure you get the right product for your home. We'll be with you through all aspects of your project from the purchase decision, expert installation, quality maintenance and service, and even warranty work should you need it. We assist with permits and rebates, too. Give Washington Energy Services a call today to learn more or to schedule your service.

"This review is long overdue in my praise of Washington Energy Services for their customer service, pricing and workmanship ! My first interaction was in 1999 when they installed windows throughout my house. They are still in excellent condition. I might note I called them over 20 years later to inquire on how I could repair a broken slider and they sent someone right out, charging a very nominal amount to repair it. In 2020, I needed to replace my hot water tank, and the extremely knowledgeable Christy presented several options, answering my many questions. I settled on one with a booster that seemed to best fit my needs. Finally, in December 2023, I purchased a new gas furnace from WES. I had a minor issue with a fan switch and they responded quickly to rectify the situation. Within the past two months, I seemed to be having an issue with my thermostat (something they had not installed), and the manager, Greg, came out twice with his crew to explore the problem. Today they installed a new thermostat FREE OF CHARGE! Their excellent response and customer service is beyond any company I have hired. And I particularly love that they are family owned and have been around for decades. Their employees seem to be there for the long haul, which speaks highly of the owner. I refer all my friends and family and I won't go anywhere else for services that they offer. Many thanks to the staff I have interacted with over the past 25 years!"

We have been serving the Greater Puget Sound area since 1982. Today we serve all of King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. South West focuses on customer service as the differentiating factor between our company and other plumbing, heating, air, and electric contractors in the area. Our expertise, support staff, and quality work will earn your business for years to come.

"We Had Southwest Plumbing come to our house to attatch a hose bib that my husband wasn’t able to do because of the angle of the piping. He had the crawl space totally accessible and plenty of room to it as well as cob webs etc cleaned out of there. Hose bib was already removed from house. We also had a new hose bib on hand. It took the plumber 7 min to do the job. They quoted 1048.00 and we assumed they would deduct a couple hundred off when the job was done, it could not have been easier for the plumber. Again 7 min job…….. I have reached out to them 3 times to talk to Andrew which I’m sure is a manager. He has NOT returned our call. A call back and parcial refund would make all the difference as the plumber did his job well. With assessing the job they were at our house a total of 50 minutes and it cost over a 1000.00, very unacceptable. We are hoping they will make this right."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Tacoma, 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.
