Water Heater Services in Pasadena

Your Trusted Neighborhood Plumbers

​Throughout the overwhelming majority of history, if you wanted hot water, getting it was a process. Today, this entire process of collecting and heating water is entirely automated thanks to the automatic water heater. Water heaters create, store, and then distribute hot water at an ideal temperature exactly when and where you need it, making them an extremely important part of our plumbing that we often take for granted. However, they’re also a source of serious stress when something happens to them. Broken heaters can cause damage to your home, and they also require replacement roughly every eight to ten years.

No water heater problem is either too big or too small for us to take care of here at Merry Plumbing.

When to Call for Water Heater Repair

You do not have to endure these frustrations for very long, however. Our plumbing team can inspect your water heater at the first sign of a problem to determine the source of the issue and the necessary repair to get your hot water running once again.

  • Sediment and debris buildup in the tank
  • Faulty pilot light, burners, or thermocouple
  • Bacteria within the water heater
  • Neglected repairs and maintenance
  • Clogged or loosened drain valve

Whether the thermostat is malfunctioning, or one of the electrical components of your water heater seems to be acting up, you can count on our Pasadena water heater repair team to solve all of your frustrating problems.

How Long Do Water Heaters Last?

Did you know that the average water heater’s lifespan is only around eight years? It might surprise you to learn that one of the most relied-on parts of your home has such a short life expectancy. That means there’s a good chance you’ll have to replace your water heater at least once during the time you own your home. If you’re uncertain if that time has come, watch for the following signs that may indicate your water heater is failing.

How Do You Know When to Replace a Hot Water Heater?


  • If the tank has developed a leak
  • If the system runs out of hot water too quickly
  • If your water is rusty or discolored, indicating corrosion or rust within the tank
  • If your utility bills continue to rise
  • If the system requires constant and repeated repairs
  • If you want to invest in a more energy-efficient model
  • If the system takes longer to heat the water
  • If your water temperature consistently fluctuates

When it's time for a new system, our Pasadena water heater replacement team can help you choose the perfect replacement unit to match your needs. We also offer first-time water heater installations for custom home builds, major remodels, and more.

How Long Does it Take to Fix a Water Heater?

There are quite a few different types of repairs that a water heater plumber may need to make in order to restore the quality of your hot water. Below are a few different examples and their estimated amounts of repair time. Keep in mind that there are many factors that can impact these times and no time listed is an exact guarantee:

  • Anode Rod Replacement - At least 30 minutes (varies depending on the type of water heater)
