"These guys were Amazing! Two months ago my pilot light on my 15 year old water heater went out. They were out within three hours to relight and give us a quote on a tankless system. The bid was very reasonable so I called the operations manager and asked him if we should move forward with the installation or hold off until the old water heater died. Naturally I assumed he would push me to replace but he said he would hold off until the old one died. I was completely impressed that they didn’t to encourage me to buy right away. Two months later on Thanksgiving it started leaking. I called Excalibar back on Thanksgiving thinking I would be leaving a message and they answered. Not only did they answer but they scheduled replacement of the hot water heater for Monday and it was done by the end of day on Monday. We couldn’t be happier with the service or the tankless product. I would absolutely consider paying a little extra to get the recirculating system so that you have “on demand” hot water. It’s really nice to jump in the shower and have hot water immediately."

"Colin Badgett was the pro who arrived timely to give me an estimate on replacing my 13 year old water heater. He was friendly, eager to provide information and assurance that the job could be done easily and promptly. He provided three different levels of Rheem heaters from which to choose. He also provided information on available to ease the cost burden. This pro and his company are great! Thanks, Colin! They were not chosen only because another company offered a better discount and then, as it turned out, tried to renege on their offer. Next time, I’m going with Mr. Blodgett and his company."

"Jon @ Johnny Pipes was great with explaining on the phone the process with converting my tanked water heater to a tankless water heater. It was installed quickly. The energy savings are amazing and the install price was very reasonable. The install was very professional and i highly recommend his services! Thanks again."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Austin, TX

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.
