These are the water heater problems we diagnose most often across South San Francisco, CA.
Failed heating elements, faulty thermostats, and leaking T&P valves are diagnosed and repaired on standard tank units.
Error codes, flow sensor issues, and scale buildup in tankless units get diagnosed with manufacturer-specific tools.
We test the thermocouple and gas valve together, since a weak pilot can point to either component.
