"Mr. Rema arrived on time Sunday morning to update my water heater. He installed an expansion tank, duct work and replacing the piping to the thermostat on the water heater. He did an excellent job and took his time. Mr. Rema also went to the local hardware store twice to pick up the material that was needed. The only reason I didn't give him an A was because he quoted me a price at the beginning and then went done on the price and then tried to go back up to the original quoted price. After talking with him he decided to keep the price at the lower amount that he quoted."

"Mr. Brian Langford made all the arrangements with the installation of our gas hot water heater from Lowe's via McCarthy plumbing. He was extremely helpful,patient, professional and available to answer all questions. Due to his approach to his work, we will be working with both companies in the future. Only concern I have is the warranty between Lowe's and AO Smith Hot water heaters. Once the heater is installed, Lowe's severs ties. If there is a problem with the hot water heater, you cannot return it to Lowe's although it was purchased through them, this is clearly stated on the Hot water heater in bold writing."

"My water heater was leaking and I needed immediate replacement or repair. Earl called, showed up, diagnosed the problem and provided an estimate. He was very professional and took pride in his work. After replacing and installing the water heater, he gave me training on what he installed. He hauled the defective water heater and cleaned after him. For me his courtesy and attention to detail was worth every dollar charged. I will hire him again if I ever have any other plumbing or A/C work. I am very satisfied costumer."

"I'd been experiencing allergy concerns and decided to have an air quality test performed for mold primarily in my home. Sometimes the air in my home, seems to cause my nose to run and eyes become somewhat irritated. The gentlemen, first listened to all my concerns and gave me some suggestions, due to another problem I was experiencing in my attic.  He looked in my attic and gave a few suggestions to correct a problem there. He said that he too noticed some nasal irritation in the air, as well. I wanted to first start by ruling out  MOLD, as the problem. He did not pressure me in performing an air test, at all. It was totally my decision and we both agreed that at least I would know whether to rule mold out or remediate a mold problem, if necessary. So I gave him my consent to conduct an air quality test. He said that he would conduct it on the inside ( top level hall area) and outside ( front of garage) to compare results. Two sample vials with air samples from the two locations were collected using a machine with free standing stand.  He left and assured me that he would physically  deliver the two samples that evening to an outside facility for a diagnostic analysis and said that I'd get the results on Tuesday, via email.  On Tuesday, I did receive the results, which showed that I had no MOLD. However, it did show that I had something in the air which could explain the symptoms I'd been experiencing. The report was very detailed and pretty easy to read and comprehend. I also called their office and a woman pulled up my results and reassured me that there was not a Mold problem. He left his card, should I need further service and he would quote an estimate,should I use his service for the attic problem. He was very professional, polite, and very attentive to my situation.

"The people from Sila were excellent. They replaced our hot water heater quickly and with attention to detail. We had an odd configuration of gas piping that also turned out to be lose, they reconfigured to make it fit the space much better and was secure. They also redid an outdoor connection that had rusted and casing deteriorated from UV rays. Very pleased with their work, fair and reasonable pricing, would hire again."

"This review is solely about the installation portion of the Puronics Water Treatment System since it was just installed today. The install team arrived on time, ready to go to work. The location of my main water line was tricky to get to, but they found a great solution to tap into the line via a drop-ceiling access point. They located the Hydronex Water Conditioning Cylinder and Salt Backflush Container exactly where I wanted it. Their work was clean, tight, and very professional. The RO system was backordered, so they explained that they will return within the week to install that portion of the project. They prepped for the RO install by drilling and installing the faucet in my granite countertop. After the install, they explained the whole system to my wife and I and we were up and running with conditioned water. I can't say enough about my experience with Chuck on the initial phone call, Miles who provided the water testing and sold me the system, and Ryan who installed the system. So far, I can't envision any issues that might arise with Orbit Water Solutions since they have provided outstanding service to this point!"

"I felt I paid too much for the water heater, but I believed the plumber when he told me i needed a new one. That is not really the issue. When the gas valve on the water heater went bad (diagnostic light blinking) I tried to get them to replace it under warranty. I had to fight with them to replace the valve. Then they charged me double what another plumber would have charged to replace the same valve as the plumber that did the water heater was sick or something. I did not feel I was treated honestly."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Cheltenham, MD

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.
