Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my pilot light keep going out in Ararat?
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.
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.
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.
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.
