"Found Chris on a Sunday as our water heater died while we were on vacation. He called right back and initiated the conversation. He didn't have our specific model in stock, but he was able to get it and he was at our house at 8AM for the installation. Job well done!"

"I've used Raecon Plumbing many times over the years. They are always very knowledgeable, and competitive price wise vs. other companies. Services I've used include water heater replacement , tub and shower remodeling, sewer clogs, drain replacements on sinks and toilets. Other drain lines buried both under my house and in the ground outside. I recommend to my friends and family as I'm a firm believer that once you find someone you can trust you don't need to look elsewhere."

"Mr. Kachurick installed a gas line for a fireplace in my home. He was extremely knowledgable, friendly, and professional. The service he provided was top tier. He made sure I understood everything he would be doing and even showed me how he checked to make sure the gas line wasn’t leaking after installing it. Not only did he provide us with excellent service in terms of the line installation, his expertise also gave me peace of mind, knowing that we were provided with high quality work."

"Bill was very thorough. He showed up on time for his estimate he showed up on time to do the work very pleasant gentleman. I had to have my outside Spicket replaced. It was a mess. He did a wonderful job on that inside my hot water tank just wouldnâ t get hot anymore and was getting old and it was wearing. He replaced the hot water tank and some other parts. I really liked Bill and his work. I will definitely call him back again."

FAQs for water heater repair or service projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
