"Just had their plumber come out to fix our faucets. We called yesterday and he was out this morning. Knowledgeable, professional, and very clean. Gave us some great tips on some of our issues and was pretty funny on top of that! We have had Sturm service our furnace and air conditioner for years and have never been disappointed. The only problem I had was that the plumbing services on the web site are limited to water heaters. He is very knowledgeable about other issues. He replaced our toilet a few months ago and it is amazing. I have had other companies out and he is the best so far."

"Great job. Cole has done several jobs for me and I can say for certain not only does he do exceptional work he is always pleasant and professional. He gets the job done right and stands by his work all for a fair price. In real estate I always need a plumber and Cole does far more than that. He installed a new water filtration system, replaced toilets, replaced water heaters, fixed and replaced valves for sinks, faucets, and W/D lines and scoped and cleaned clogged lines, just to name a few. If you need a plumber who is honest, hard working and professional and won't break the bank give Method plumbing a try you wont regret it."

"Came up to Silverthorne for an overnight stay and discovered our electric hot water heater was leaking and needed replacement. I immediately went to Lowes and purchased a new hot water heater and was told it would be 3 days minimum to install. I went to HomeAdvisor on my smart phone and found Alpine Home Solutions and called from the store. I spoke with Richard (the owner) and he said he would pick up the heater at Lowes at 8am the next morning. He actually showed up at my place at 8am and hauled it up a flight of outside stairs and explained his installer(Neil) would be there at noon for the install. Neil showed up at 11:59 am and preceded to do a great job of installation in a very tight space. Neil explained to me on how to change the water temperature if needed and did an excellent job of protecting our floor coverings and he cleaned up everything very well. Richard came back right after the install to inspect and everything was A-OK. I can't say enough good things about Alpine Home Solutions, LLC and the way they do business. The were very prompt and performed the work in a VERY TIMELY manner. My wife and I are totally impressed with this company and the quality of their work. I would HIGHLY RECCOMMEND THEM TO EVERYONE !!!"

"I’ve been working with Wayne Bullington at St. Joseph's Heating & Plumbing for nearly twenty years, and I can’t recommend him enough! He has been instrumental in my rental remodels and personal properties, handling everything from the installation of high-efficiency gas furnaces to new plumbing fixtures and repairs. Wayne's expertise in septic and sewer repairs has also been invaluable. His professionalism and quality of work consistently exceed my expectations. If you need reliable HVAC and plumbing services, make sure you hire St. Joseph's Heating & Plumbing!"

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Athol, ID

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.
