Water Heater Services in Escondido: Local Expert Tips and Professional Service
My Guy is Proud to Be "Your Guy" for Your Home
As someone who’s lived in Escondido for over 15 years and worked on hundreds of HVAC and plumbing systems, I’ve learned what really matters when it comes to water heater services. At My Guy Heating Air & Plumbing, we believe in empowering our neighbors with knowledge while being here when you need professional help.
Water heaters last 8-12 years with proper care. Here’s how to maximize yours
Insulate your water heater if it’s in an unheated garage or basement. This simple step prevents about 60% of the service calls we get from Escondido homeowners.
Set temperature to 120°F – higher temps waste energy and can scald. I can’t tell you how many times this basic maintenance would have prevented a costly emergency call.
Check the pressure relief valve yearly by lifting the lever briefly. Trust me on this one – I’ve seen what happens when homeowners skip this step.
When to Call the Professionals
If you see water pooling around your unit, call immediately – it could fail completely without notice. That’s where our expertise really matters.
We’ve been serving North County San Diego families since 2010, and we’ve learned that the best customers are informed customers. You don’t need to know how to fix everything, but knowing what to watch for can save you hundreds of dollars in preventable repairs.

Common Questions from Escondido Homeowners
Why does my hot water run out so quickly now?
Sediment buildup reduces capacity. Common in Escondido due to mineral content in local water.
Is a tankless water heater right for my home?
Great for many Escondido homes, but requires proper sizing and sometimes electrical upgrades.
What’s that puddle of water under my unit?
Small amounts might be condensation, but pooling water usually means replacement time is near.
What size water heater do I need for my family?
Depends on usage patterns, not just family size. We calculate based on your actual hot water needs.
Remember, we’re here to help whether it’s a quick question or a full system replacement.
