Traditional Water Heaters
Traditional storage tank water heaters are still widely used in Bakersfield homes due to their lower upfront cost and familiarity. These systems typically hold 30 to 80 gallons of water and use gas or electricity to maintain their temperature.
- Water not heating properly
- Rumbling or banging noises
- Rust-colored water
- Pressure relief valve leaks
- Pilot light issues (for gas models)
- High utility bills from poor efficiency
We carry replacement parts for most major brands and can usually complete repairs in a single visit. If your tank is more than 8–10 years old or needs frequent repairs, we’ll walk you through the replacement process. We offer energy-efficient models that reduce utility costs and meet new DOE standards.
