Frequently Asked Questions
What areas around Des Moines does HotFlow cover?
Coverage extends through Des Moines and surrounding the greater metro area. If you're near but not sure you're inside the service area, call (877) 823-0233 to confirm.
How long does a typical gas water heater last?
Most tank-style units last around 8 to 12 years depending on water quality and maintenance. Tankless units tend to last longer with proper upkeep. A technician can assess your specific unit's condition.
My water heater is making noise but still works — is that a problem?
Popping or rumbling sounds usually indicate sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank. It's not always urgent, but it's worth having flushed or inspected before it affects the unit's lifespan.
Why does my pilot light keep going out in Des Moines?
The most common cause is a worn thermocouple, which is a relatively inexpensive part to replace. Drafts and a dirty pilot orifice can also cause this. A technician can usually diagnose it on the same visit.
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 Des Moines.
