Benefits of Gas Water Heaters
Not sure whether a gas water heater is right for your home? Here are some of the benefits you can expect when you install one:
- You’ll still have hot water in a power outage: Because your water heater runs on gas and not electricity, you won’t have to worry about it shutting down if the power goes out.
- Your water will heat up faster: Gas water heaters typically heat up faster than electric ones.
- Your home will be more energy-efficient: Gas water heaters typically use fuel more efficiently than electric water heaters.
- You can save money on monthly energy bills: While some of your electricity bill costs will go toward a gas bill now, you’ll still likely save money in the long run.

You can’t trust just anyone to look at your gas water heater. You need a licensed professional that knows how to properly handle gas appliances. The team at Wolfer’s has extensive experience with gas water heaters and can repair all kinds of issues, from minor wiring problems to major leaks.
Signs Your Gas Water Heater Needs Repair
If your gas water heater has a problem, don’t hesitate to contact a professional for repairs. Some signs to look out for when you’re thinking about calling include:
- A rotten egg smell in your home: This is a sign of a gas leak and needs to be fixed immediately.
- Unusually high gas bills: This can also be a sign of a gas leak, or it could mean something else is broken, causing your water heater to use more energy to run.
- Water leaking around your unit: If you see water pooling around your unit, then there’s likely a leak coming from your tank or your pipes.
- Pilot light issues: If your pilot light doesn’t stay on, you might have a faulty thermocouple that needs to be fixed.
