Frequently Asked Questions About Gas Water Heater Repair
Why won’t my gas water heater pilot light stay lit?
The most common culprit is a depleted or carbon-fouled thermocouple that fails to generate the millivolts required to hold the gas valve open. Other causes include a clogged pilot orifice or a failing gas control valve.
Can a malfunctioning gas water heater cause carbon monoxide leaks?
Yes. An improperly drafting flue, cracked burner baffle, or misaligned draft hood can vent carbon monoxide into living areas. Our technicians perform combustible gas and draft safety tests on every service call.
How long does a gas water heater repair typically take?
Most common gas water heater repairs, such as thermocouple replacement, pilot orifice cleaning, or gas control valve installation, take between 1 and 2 hours to complete.
