Is your water heater running cold, leaking, or overdue for maintenance? Your water heater works hard every day, and just like any gas appliance, it needs professional care. At Vancity Heating, we provide licensed, same-day Gas Water Heater Service New Westminster that includes diagnostics, minor repairs, safety inspections, and performance tune-ups. Whether it’s a standard tank, tankless, or power vent model, we keep it running safely and efficiently.
🔍 What Does “Water Heater Service” Actually Mean?
Homeowners often confuse the terms repair, maintenance, and service. Here’s what you need to know:
- Repair addresses specific problems like leaks, pilot light failures, or no hot water.
- Maintenance is preventive and performed annually to keep everything clean and functioning.
- Service is a comprehensive visit that combines performance testing, safety checks, minor repairs, and cleaning.
