Permits, licenses and your utility
In Texas, water heater work is plumbing work done by plumbers who hold a license from the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. If you have a gas unit and smell gas, leave the house and call Atmos Energy from outside before anyone works on it.
Permit questions go to the City of Irving Inspections department. Irving gets most of its water from Lake Chapman and Lewisville Lake. Texas Stadium stood in Irving until 2010. DFW International Airport borders the city on the west.
Know your Irving house
Spring storms can bring hail. The Toyota Music Factory is an entertainment venue in Las Colinas.
Valley Ranch was developed in the 1980s and 1990s. Older water heaters in post-war homes may sit on the floor of a garage, and current code often calls for raising gas units off the floor there. Las Colinas is a large planned development with offices, homes and the Mandalay Canal.
Flushing sediment once a year helps a tank last longer and run quieter. The Mustangs of Las Colinas sculpture is in Williams Square.
Before the visit

Common questions
What is the pressure relief valve for?
It lets water out if pressure or temperature in the tank gets too high. If it drips often or the pipe below it's wet, have it looked at instead of capping it.
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.
Which parts of Irving can you help with?
Most likely. We cover Las Colinas, Valley Ranch, Plymouth Park and Hackberry Creek and other parts of Irving, across 75038, 75039, 75060, 75061, 75062 and others. If nobody's available, we'll tell you, and you can call back later or pick another day that works better.
Is there anything local about water heater repair in Irving?
The Elm Fork of the Trinity River runs along the east side. Clay soil moves with wet and dry spells, stressing slabs and pipes. Older neighborhoods near the Heritage District date from the 1950s and 1960s. Those details help the water heater specialist plan the visit.
What should I tell the specialist?
Share the brand, capacity and fuel type from the label, the approximate age and what you're seeing.
Write down any error codes, noises or smells. Details like that speed things up.
