GAS TANKS

Gas Water Heater Not Working

A gas water heater that will not heat is often a pilot or electronic-ignition failure, a thermocouple, a gas-control valve, or a venting/combustion-air problem. If you smell gas, see soot, or a CO alarm sounds, leave the home. Do not keep clicking the igniter.

Immediate safety: Gas odor or CO alarm: leave and call 911 or the utility. Water on electrical parts: do not touch the unit. Continuous hot discharge: never cap the T&P pipe.
PUBLISHED INSTALLED PRICING

Real installed numbers—not an uninstalled tank.

50-GAL ELECTRIC

$1,349 + tax

Confirmed standard replacement.

See 50-gal →

Expansion tank from $149. Extra piping from $199. Code, attic, leak damage and relocation are approved in writing. We do not promise 24/7 coverage.

Pilot, igniter and flame color

A healthy gas flame is mostly blue. Yellow flame, rolling flame or soot means incomplete combustion. That is a shut-down and service condition, not a “relight it one more time” task.

Venting and combustion air

Blocked vents, nested animals, or tight closets without enough air will shut a modern control down or produce CO. Attic and closet gas tanks in Charlotte houses need this check before we quote a simple swap.

Replacement path

Gas installed pricing starts from $1,449 + tax for a qualifying 40-gallon like-for-like job. Flex-line, shutoff, vent and combustion-air corrections are extra and written before work.

Pilot, thermocouple and control “repair cost”

A thermocouple or igniter on a newer sound tank can be worth repairing. A failing gas-control valve on a 12-year unit usually loses to replacement. Status lights and blink codes need the model booklet—not a generic YouTube reset. Gas odor still means leave first.
