About this site

This site does one thing. It covers water heaters in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and it is written for the person who has to decide what to do about one that has failed, is failing, or is about to be replaced.

An independent local service that connects Colorado Springs homeowners with a water heater contractor. The crew that arrives is the contractor's, and this site answers for the information on it rather than for the work.

There are eight problem pages, one for each way a water heater goes wrong: no hot water, a leak, a unit that runs but does not heat, a repair decision, a replacement, an installation, maintenance, and an expansion tank. Each one is written to answer its own question rather than to funnel every visitor into the same paragraph.

What this site does not do

It does not publish prices. A figure given before the unit, the venting and the access have been seen is a guess, and a guess is worse than a description of the job.

It does not publish an address, a review count, a licence number or a number of years in business. None of those can be verified here, so none of them appear. There is no map and no review badge for the same reason.

It does not claim a service area beyond the city. The page you are reading names Colorado Springs and stops there.

How it works

Read the page that matches the problem, or call the number in the header and describe what the unit is doing. The fuel, the size and where the unit sits are usually enough to tell which kind of job it is before anyone arrives.

Several pages also say when the answer is not to spend money: a flush on a leaking tank, a repair on a shell that has failed, an expansion tank on an open system. Those sections exist because a page that only sells is a page a homeowner learns to distrust.

How to reach us is on the contact page, and the phone number is on every page on the site.
