"I needed to replace my Water Heater with a special order Bradford Smith. This company is fair priced and does quality work. The office staff are great at answering the phone and very helpful to insure that any permits or paperwork gets done in a timely manner."

"Continental crew came out after the shut main shut off water valve would not function. They came immediately and in the process also found out that pipes in the kitchen and bathroom were leaking. They found all the leaks and repaired the them which was not an easy job. Did a good job."

"I had the equipment replaced, a brand new, super high efficiency, fancy, lovely stuff. It's a central air system, and it's Lennox equipment. It's high efficiency. You can get it for less than that, but you're not gonna get the high efficiency quiet and all that kind of stuff. I had received other quotes which were like more money for the same system. I have been using them since 1986. No complaints. They do their thing, and I can't fault them. I have a service contract with them for this."

"I reached out to Continental this past Saturday morning because I had a leaking steam boiler return line and was in a bit of a jam due to the sub par plumber that was assigned to my service request by American Home Shield. Continental came through like a champ! When they arrived they assessed the damage, gave me a quote and told me how long the job would take. I hired them on the spot. They were done within the time frame given and the guys that came out were super friendly and clean. They did a fantastic job all around. So much so that I plan on having them come back next month to do some additional work for me! I would highly recommend them for any heating and/or plumbing work needed. They're responsive, professional and competitively priced."

"They did a fantastic job, however I believe the labor cost was a little steep. And they should share the maintenance on the water heater with the customer."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Newark, NJ

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.
