Gas water heaters are a favorite in our area because they heat water quickly and efficiently. They’re dependable, cost-effective, and keep up with high demand, even for large families.

Benefits of a gas water heater:

• Lower fuel costs compared to electric models
• Hot water that recovers quickly between uses
• Long lifespan when serviced regularly
• Modern safety and efficiency features

For families who do a lot of laundry or run multiple showers in the morning, gas water heaters are the most practical option. They’re built to handle the daily use that homes in South Central Kentucky need.

When your water heater is too old or too costly to repair, replacement is usually the smart move. We install new gas water heaters safely and correctly, so you don’t have to worry about leaks or performance issues later.

You may need a new water heater if:

• It’s more than 10 or 12 years old
• Hot water runs out faster than it used to
• You notice leaks, rust, or strange noises
• You’ve already had several repairs in recent years

Upgrading to a modern unit can make a big difference in energy use and heating speed. Today’s gas water heaters are more efficient and include improved safety systems to protect your home.

When we install your new water heater system, we’ll remove the old one, check your gas lines and venting, and make sure everything is up to code. Before leaving, we’ll test your new heater and walk you through basic maintenance steps so it runs smoothly for years to come.

If your old system is leaking or can’t keep up with your family’s needs, call Shane Elmore Plumbing for water heater replacement in Bowling Green or Glasgow.

Not every problem means your water heater needs to be replaced. Sometimes, a repair can get it running like new again.

Common problems we fix:

• Pilot light won’t stay lit
• Leaks around the fittings or tank
• Fluctuating or inconsistent water temperatures
• Banging or popping noises from sediment buildup
• Gas control valve or thermostat issues

Watch for these signs you need a repair:

• Hot water that runs out quickly
• Water that doesn’t get as hot as it used to
• Pressure changes or water discoloration
• Unusual smells near the water heater

Small problems can turn into big ones if ignored. If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to call for service before the damage spreads. Our plumbers can diagnose the issue quickly, repair it safely, and make sure everything is running as it should.

We also offer emergency gas water heater repair for those late-night or weekend breakdowns. When the water turns cold, we’ll be there.

A water heater that’s cared for will always last longer and perform better. Regular maintenance helps prevent costly repairs and keeps your system running efficiently year-round.

Maintenance tips to keep your water heater healthy:

• Flush the tank once a year to remove sediment
• Test the pressure relief valve to ensure it’s working
• Check for leaks, corrosion, or rust
• Keep the area around the heater open for ventilation
• Schedule a professional inspection once a year

Our tune-up service includes checking all gas connections, cleaning components, and making sure the system heats efficiently and safely. We’ll point out any potential issues and explain how to fix them before they become problems.
