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.

Gas Water Heater Repair

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.

Gas Water Heater Maintenance

Gas water heaters can last up to around 10 years with good maintenance. To keep your gas water heater running smoothly for as long as possible, take advantage of our water heater maintenance. A skilled professional from our team can flush sediment buildup out of your water heater, test and recalibrate your thermostat, inspect your anode rod, and more.

Torsen was very respectful and polite, took care in my home. He listened to my explanation of the problem, asked great questions, then told me how he would diagnose the issue. He not only explained the problem very well, he showed me what was happening. Then he patiently answered about a thousand questions. He also explained my options and didn't try to push any decisions. He fixed the issue and I'm very happy with the service. He's a great representative for Wolfers. My neighbors recommended Wolfers after having then replace their furnace and AC. It was a great experience, from the cheerful schedulers to Torsen. Recommend!

Update: James came today to do maintenance check/work on our furnace and AC and was very pleasant and personable. It took him about 2 hours and was very efficient. We love Wolfer's maintenance plan (approx $20/month) it truly gives you peace of mind. We've work with Wolfer's for several years and have never had any problems. We recommend this company to anyone!

We're in the process of renovating and want to change out our electic range to a gas range. Contacted NW Natural Gas and they sent us a list of approved vendors. When we saw Wolfer's was on the list it was a no brainer. We had Wolfer's install an AC and a more efficient gas heater back in 2021 and we signed up for their yearly maintenance plan and are very pleased with their services.

Today Matt Febus came out thinking he was just going to give us an estimate and we thought he was going to do the install of the gas line for the range (so a bit of miscommunication). When we explained to Matt our thoughts, he said he'll give us the estimate and if he can he'd install the line right then. We agreed to the estimate and he completed the job of installing the line and he found a gas leak on our hot water heater and fixed that as well. Matt went above and beyond to make us happy, reduced our stress, and did a great job!!! Matt is a down to earth kind of guy, with a great sense of humor, polite, considerate, and has a great customer service attitude! Nothing was a big deal and because he looked to see we have this maintenance agreement, he gave a discount. We greatly appreciate that with our renovation costs as well. A BIG THANK YOU TO MATT!!!!

New Review... Chris Mason and Falcon came to fix our thermostat (blue screen of death). They did a great job fixing it and checking safety issues and offered solutions for upgrading including some extra safety features. They gave us the full package to the basic package to think about with no pressure to think about what we want and can afford. We will be talking to them in a week to let them know our decision. Both guys were wonderful! Love working with Wolfer's they make our lives less stressful and feel like we're friends not just a dollar amount. I recommend Wolfer's to everyone!
