Water Heater Replacement in Mountain View

A customer from Mountain View reached out to our company requesting a repair for their 75-gallon gas water heater. Upon performing a thorough diagnosis, we discovered that the water heater was leaking, and unfortunately, repairs were not an option. The unit was very old, around 20 years, meaning it had already exceeded its typical lifespan. Additionally, we found that the recirculation pump had burned out and also needed to be replaced.

After identifying the issues, we quickly provided the customer with an estimate. Once the customer approved it, we scheduled the Water Heater Replacement in Mountain View for the following morning.

75-gallon water heater replacement

Replacing a 75-gallon water heater is no small task. It is twice as heavy as a 50-gallon unit, which means that the replacement process is significantly more challenging and time-consuming. The situation was further complicated by the fact that the water heater was located in a closet, and its height made it difficult to fit through the door frame. We had to take extra precautions and carefully maneuver the unit, which added to the complexity of the installation.

Moreover, since the recirculation pump required replacement, along with the expansion tank and several leaking pipes that needed re-soldering, the job became even more intricate.

Despite the challenges, our team worked diligently throughout the day. By the evening, we had successfully completed the installation, and hot water was once again flowing in the customer’s home.

We replaced the old water heater with a reliable Bradford White unit, a brand we recommend for its excellent performance and durability. The customer was pleased with the smooth process and the return of hot water, especially given the complexity of the job.
