Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if I smell gas near my water heater?
Leave the house immediately, avoid operating any switches or appliances, and call your gas utility's emergency line from a safe location. This takes priority over calling for a repair.
Should I repair or replace my gas water heater?
It generally depends on the unit's age and what's failed. A control valve or thermocouple issue on a newer tank is usually worth repairing; a rusting tank near the end of its typical service life is often better replaced. A technician can advise after inspecting it.
What does gas water heater repair typically cost?
Cost depends on the specific part or issue involved — a thermocouple replacement is relatively inexpensive, while a gas valve or full tank issue costs more. Pricing is discussed directly with the technician after diagnosis.
Do you handle both tank and tankless gas water heaters?
Many technicians in our network work on both. Call (877) 823-0233 to confirm availability for your specific unit type in Montara.
Is HotFlow the company that repairs the water heater?
HotFlow is a referral network — we connect you with independent, local water heater repair professionals rather than sending our own crew. Licensing and insurance can be confirmed directly with the technician before work begins.
