"Everyone from Delta Heating & Cooling were highly professional and courteous. Everything was done as quoted. Michael, the sales rep came back during the install to make sure everything was going smoothly and afterwards to answer any questions. Kelley at the office was very nice and responded quickly to my requests. I would recommend Delta to anyone looking to have their HVAC system replaced."

"Fred from Streamline came the day after we contacted the company about a slow leak in our water heater. Since the appliance was 10 years old, we decided to replace it. Fred was friendly, efficient and effective. Within a few hours we had our new system in place."

"Perfect. I know this because I had a different company come out, say they would install 7-10, after 11th day started getting run around, 20th day I called this company. They came same day, installed within 4 days, submitted my rebate from Duke for me, comes with excellent warranty and they offer a service plan cheap enough I can afford. Single woman who cant tolerate heat along with aging dogs, they put my needs in first. Very happy. Will have them back to install hot water heater! I didn't like that they added $500 to billing to get me the 0% for 5 yrs payment plan but it is what it is in this day."

Customers say: Quick response

"I called Able Plumbing yesterday and said I did not have any hot water and that the water heater probably needed to be replaced. Later in the day, Chris came by to look at the heater and informed me that, due to it's age (11 years), the heater should be replaced and not repaired. I agreed and Chris replaced it today. His work was prompt, neat, and to my satisfaction. I would highly recommend Able Plumbing Services."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Cary, NC

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.
