What the customer called about
At a home in Owasso, 74055, the 65-gallon gas water heater was not providing hot water. The homeowner reported that it would not stay lit.
What our plumber found
The existing water heater was 21 years old. Replacement parts were unavailable for that unit, and a 65-gallon replacement tank was no longer available. The homeowner chose a new 75-gallon gas water heater.
How we fixed it
We removed the old water heater and installed the new 75-gallon gas unit in the closet. We connected the water lines, gas supply and vent. The finished setup also includes an expansion tank above the heater.
What this means for your home
If your gas water heater will not stay lit, we recommend having it checked before deciding between repair and replacement. Age and parts availability matter. In this case, unavailable replacement parts helped guide the decision to replace the heater.
