Gas water heaters are the most common type in Gurnee homes. Common gas water heater repairs include thermocouple replacement, gas valve replacement, pilot light relight and adjustment, burner assembly cleaning and replacement, and flue vent inspection. Our licensed plumbers are qualified to work on gas lines and gas appliances safely, following all Illinois code requirements for Gurnee service.
Electric water heaters use one or two heating elements to heat water. When an element burns out, the water heater may still produce some hot water (if the other element works) but will run out much faster than normal. We replace upper and lower heating elements, thermostats, and electrical connections on all major brands including Rheem, Bradford White, A.O. Smith, GE, and others commonly found in Gurnee homes.
Tankless water heaters — both gas and electric — require specialized knowledge to repair. Common issues include error codes, flow sensor failures, scale buildup in the heat exchanger (especially in Lake County's hard water areas), and ignition failures. We service and repair Rinnai, Navien, Noritz, Rheem, and other tankless brands found in Gurnee homes.
Lake County water has moderate to high mineral content, and over time calcium and magnesium sediment accumulates at the bottom of your water heater tank. This sediment insulates the water from the heat source, drastically reducing efficiency and making your water heater work harder. We perform complete tank flushing and maintenance services that extend the life of your water heater and restore its efficiency.
This is one of the most important questions we help Gurnee homeowners answer honestly. As a rule of thumb: if your water heater is less than 7 years old and the repair cost is less than 50% of a replacement unit, repair is usually the right call. If your water heater is 10 or more years old, we typically recommend replacement — not because we want the larger job, but because an aging unit that needs one repair is likely to need another within a year or two. Our plumbers will give you an honest, straight recommendation based on your specific unit's condition and age.
