Gas Water Heater FAQs

How do I know if my thermocouple is bad?

The thermocouple is a safety sensor that tells the gas valve the pilot light is on. If you can light the pilot by holding down the button, but the flame immediately goes out the second you let go, your thermocouple is likely dead and needs replacement.

Is a gas leak around the water heater an emergency?

Absolutely. If you smell a sulfur or "rotten egg" odor near your tank, you have a natural gas leak. Do not light any matches or flip electrical switches. Leave the house, call the gas company to shut off the supply, and then contact our plumbers for repair.

Why is there a puddle of water under my gas water heater?

Puddles can indicate a few different issues. It might be a simple fix like a leaking drain valve or a dripping T&P relief valve. However, if the water is leaking directly from the bottom of the tank itself, the inner steel has rusted through, and the entire unit must be replaced.
