It could be caused by a faulty part on water heater. However, if you notice that it happens more on windy days, venting is more likely the cause. The age of your water heater is usually encoded on the serial number. Some manufacturers list the age of the water heater in the first four digits of the serial number.

I STAN THE HOT WATER MAN.
This was a fabulous quick response from Scott and expedited fix to my hot water heater! I will be using this as my goto service given their response time, knowledge, ability to quickly root cause and repair water heaters. Thank you Scott.

My property management company chose Stan the Hot Water Man and I was apprehensive that they would quickly and accurately diagnose the problem.
Jake was my tech and he was knowledgeable (even on an 'ancient' water heater), accurate (he tested and verified his hypothesis), fast (less than five minutes), friendly (He didn't have to explain but took the time to do so anyway), and on-time.
I was very impressed. 5/5

Scott from STHWM is the real deal. Our tank went out and he came quickly to fix it. It was an old tank and I’ve been wanting to have a tankless water heat installed.
Took a few weeks to order the Rinnai tankless but Scott did a great job installing the whole thing… new gas line etc. etc.
We are really happy with the new Rinnai tankless.
Scott was awesome to work with. Very thorough, detail oriented, and really knows his stuff. Seriously great dude and great company to work with. I will use them in the future.

I called Stan the Man late afternoon. My H2O heater stopped working. Jessie called me back within an hour and scheduled a visit for the next afternoon. He was able to get there in the morning and quickly replaced the defective module with a part he had on his truck. Thanks!

Excellent experience! Jake the technician was very professional and efficient. I’m so glad I called Stan the Hot Water Man; I ended up saving a lot of money. I highly recommend going with this company if you need a new hot water heater. You can’t beat their price or service!

Our Rheem tankless water heater kept shutting off, so we called the company who installed it. They came out, fiddled with it for a while, charged us an arm and a leg, and left. The heater shut off again two hours later! We called Stan The Hot Water Man the next day. They came out, dismantled the entire heater, cleaned the burner assembly and charged us about half of what the other outfit did. That was three weeks ago, and the heater has been working perfectly ever since. Five stars!

Look no further. I just had an excellent experience having my hot water heater replaced.
I bought a water heat from Lowe’s (huge mistake). I had a licensed plumber come over to do the job. To make a long story short, he couldn’t drain it and declined the job.
I called “Stan the hot water man”, and Jonny called me back with in five minutes to ask me the details. He said it would be no problem and scheduled a SPECIFIC date and time for the following week.
He came over today and we discovered the Lowe’s heater to be heavily damaged out of the box. He went back to the shop and brought

Excellent service and price. The water heater in our "new-to-us" 1937 home was 35 years old, and the plumbing at the hook-up was out of code. Hunter at Stan the Hot Water Man was very knowledgeable and took care of us. Our special situation, weird plumbing, odd placement of the tank...nothing was too complicated for him! We had priced service from another very popular service in town and Stan the Hot Water Man beat that price by about $300!
Highly recommend!

Called for an estimate to have water heater replaced, ended up paying $129 for 3 minutes of time and him touching his multimeter to my water heater power lines. Which I already had out because I had done the same thing!
Their dispatch tells me one thing and the technician another. Will be disputing the charges with my bank as I didn’t sign an invoice because I didn’t agree to 129 for no service or any charge at all for coming out.
Most places charge 20-50 bucks just to come incase they don’t do anything or unable to repair.
Then I asked him what the 129 covered and he said that would have

Excellent and honest service! The technician ( Scott) arrived a few minutes before the scheduled time, did the job quickly and professionally. I had been told by another plumbing agency technician that our boiler( floor heater) was beyond repair and needed to be replaced for $11,000. Scott fixed the problem within 30 min and it cost me a little over $200. Fantastic! I am so happy!!!
