"We've been dealing with Sal's for over 15 years, they've covered routine maintenance work on the furnace and a/c as well as emergency repairs in the winter and summer. We just had a hot water tank replaced in December, they always do a good job and you can trust them."

"Old water heater failed. Called the company, and they were able to install a new one the same day. The tech was very knowledgeable and professional. However, I felt the price was too high. But I wanted it taken care of ASAP."

"“I was getting frustrated after two plumbers I contacted couldn’t figure out where my water leak was coming from. Then I contacted Bernard Pettyjohn of Legacy Systems remodeling LLC. He was the third plumber I called. He immediately pinpointed the issue, and completed the repair with real expertise. Outstanding service from a true professional. His skill and knowledge turned a stressful situation into a quick fix. His exceptional service is absolutely worth five stars.”"

"Chris and his assistant did an excellent job of explaining the situation and options for repairing or replacing our hot water heater. In the end we chose to replace it and they were able to secure a new unit and install it within 3 hours. Would definitely recommend Chris and Tri-County Services and will use them again if another situation arises."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Willoughby, OH

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.
