Our Water Heater Repair Services in New Port Richey
R.J. Kielty handles every type of water heater repair you’re likely to need. Our technicians carry diagnostic tools and common replacement parts on every service call, so most repairs are completed in a single visit.

Tank Water Heater Repair and Diagnostics
Traditional tank water heaters are the most common units in New Port Richey homes. They’re reliable, but they develop problems over time, especially in Florida, where hard water speeds up sediment buildup inside the tank.
Our technicians test thermostats, inspect anode rods, check pressure relief valves, and flush tanks to remove mineral deposits. If your tank unit is producing lukewarm water, running out of hot water too quickly, or making popping and rumbling sounds, these are signs that sediment or a worn component needs attention. We diagnose the root cause before recommending any repair.
Tankless Water Heater Repair and Maintenance
Tankless water heaters offer continuous hot water and energy savings, but they require specific expertise to service. Error codes, fluctuating water temperatures, and reduced flow rates are common issues we see with tankless units in the New Port Richey area.
R.J. Kielty technicians are trained on major tankless brands including Rinnai, Navien, and Rheem. We descale heat exchangers, clean inlet filters, and replace ignition components. Regular maintenance extends the life of a tankless unit well beyond 15 years.
Electric Water Heater Troubleshooting and Repair
Electric water heaters account for a large share of the units installed across Pasco County. Common failure points include upper and lower heating elements, thermostats, and wiring connections.
If your electric water heater trips the breaker, produces no hot water, or delivers water that’s too hot, our electricians and plumbers work together to pinpoint the issue. R.J. Kielty’s combined plumbing and electrical expertise means we handle both sides of the repair without subcontracting.
Gas Water Heater Repair and Safety Inspections
Gas water heaters require careful handling due to combustion and ventilation concerns. Our technicians inspect burner assemblies, thermocouples, gas valves, and flue connections during every gas water heater repair call.
If you smell gas near your water heater, turn off the gas supply and call us immediately. We perform safety inspections alongside every gas water heater repair to confirm proper venting and code compliance. Your family’s safety is the priority.
Water Heater Leak Detection and Pipe Repair
A leaking water heater can cause significant water damage to floors, walls, and nearby belongings. Leaks often start at pipe connections, the temperature and pressure relief valve, or the tank itself.
Our plumbers locate the source of the leak and determine whether a repair or replacement is the right call. Minor connection leaks and valve replacements are straightforward fixes. A leaking tank body usually means the unit has corroded internally and needs replacement. We’ll give you an honest assessment either way.
Emergency Water Heater Repair, 24/7 Availability
Water heater failures don’t follow a schedule. A burst tank at midnight or a gas leak on a holiday weekend demands immediate attention. R.J. Kielty offers emergency water heater repair around the clock for customers in New Port Richey and throughout our service area.
Call our emergency line and a technician will respond promptly. We prioritize safety-related calls, gas leaks, flooding from a burst tank, and electrical hazards, to protect your property and your family.
