Power Vent Water Heater Repair in Arlington
Power vent heaters use a blower to push exhaust out through PVC pipe. Failures usually involve the blower motor, pressure switch, hot surface igniter or condensate in the vent. We read the error codes, test each part and repair the failure. Correct vent slope and termination are verified before we leave.
Venting and Draft Repair in Arlington, VA
Atmospheric gas water heaters rely on a properly sloped metal flue to carry exhaust out of the home. Disconnected sections, rusted draft hoods and poor slope can let combustion gases spill back. We repair or replace vent sections and verify draft with a test. Proper venting is critical for your family's safety.

Pilot Light Repair in Arlington
A pilot that will not light or will not stay lit is the most common gas water heater call. Causes include a worn thermocouple, a clogged pilot orifice, a bad piezo igniter or a tripped thermal cutoff. We test the thermocouple output with a meter and service or replace the pilot assembly. Most pilot repairs are finished in about an hour.
Gas Water Heater Noise Troubleshooting in Arlington
Odd noises coming from your gas water heater, such as rumbling, popping or whistling, often indicate sediment buildup in the tank or a burner problem. Hard water can add to sediment accumulation. Our repair service includes flushing the tank and inspecting for sediment, addressing pressure issues or checking other components that might be causing the noise, improving efficiency and quiet operation.
Pilot Light and Ignition System Repair in Arlington
A common culprit for no hot water in gas heaters is a faulty pilot light or ignition system.

We carry common replacement parts on our service vehicles to ensure a quick fix and restore your hot water supply promptly.
Water Heater Tank Leaks and Pressure Issues in Arlington, VA
While gas water heaters are robust, tank leaks or pressure problems can occur. We can often fix small fitting leaks or replace relief valves if pressure is too high.

We will provide an honest assessment of the repair options for your Arlington, VA home.
