Signs you should call

Common problems:

  • No hot water
  • Hot water runs out fast
  • Water pooling around the tank

Tempe homes, up close

Older ranch homes in north Tempe may have original panels and galvanized lines. Tempe is almost fully surrounded by other cities, so it can't grow outward.

Very hard water leaves scale in water heaters and on fixtures. Water heaters here often sit in a garage, closet or even an attic, where a leak can do real damage. A drain pan and a shutoff within reach help.

Very hard water leaves heavy scale in tanks, and flushing the tank once a year helps it last. Tempe Town Lake was created on the Salt River bed and opened in 1999.

Utilities, permits and licensing

Natural gas in Tempe comes from Southwest Gas. Gas water heaters need proper venting and a permit when replaced, which in Tempe goes through the Tempe Community Development Department. In Arizona, water heater installation is plumbing work done by contractors who hold a license from the Registrar of Contractors.

Quick answers

Can I relight my own pilot?

Many older gas heaters have relighting instructions on the label. If it will not stay lit, or you smell gas, stop and call for help.

Do you cover Lakeshore and Broadmor?

We look for independent pros across Tempe, including Lakeshore, Kiwanis Park, Warner Ranch and The Lakes, and ZIP codes 85281, 85282, 85283, 85284. If nobody's available, we'll tell you. If you're close to a ZIP code line, mention your cross street when you call.

What's covered after the visit?

The pro you're matched with in Columbus stands behind the job with a 30-day parts-and-labor warranty. It's written into the contract they sign with us, and they're the ones who honor it.

Is it normal for a water heater to make popping noises?

Popping or rumbling usually means sediment at the bottom of the tank. Flushing can help, but older tanks may be near the end of their life.

Tell us what's going on, when it started and what you've already tried. Photos help too.

VendorReach is a referral service, not the company that does the work. The work itself is done by an independent water heater specialist who answers for the job and the bill. Check their terms and qualifications before agreeing to anything. The pro gives you a price before any work starts, and it's your call whether to go ahead.
