The current apartment I rent and the last apartment I rent have the same Reliance water heater rental issues. In both apartments, the water heater died and flooded my apartment. It took several service calls to get a new water heater installed (in my current apartment, it took 3 visits before they put the water heater in and I was without hot water for almost a week). Both "new" water heaters failed soon after (within 24 hours for the one in my current apartment). I got a Reliance repairman to admit that the "new" water heater in my last apartment was not actually new and it was a water heater someone else did not want. Anyways, when a water heater fails, you can usually reset it by unplugging it so that is what I did. However, this time, within 2 weeks, the water heater no longer worked at all. When you call Reliance for a service call, they will not come until the following day at the earliest and they sometime miss appointments and sometime they come and tell me they can't do anything and I have to book another appointment for someone who can. I would say that only 1 out of every 3 or 4 repairman will actually try to do the repair you call them out for. I am not sure if the other reviews on this website are from actually customers or not but I cannot believe after all my troubles, that what others have said are true (i.e. getting a service appointment for a non-urgent issue in an hour).
