Rheem water heater installation at a commercial facility in Port Jefferson Station, NY by US Air Conditioning & Heating

We Replaced Our Leaking Water Heaters at Fusion MMA | US Air Conditioning & Heating

At Fusion MMA & Kickboxing, we focus on training. But lately, we had a bigger problem on our hands than a tough sparring session.

Both of our bathrooms were showing water damage on the floor. We couldn't figure out where it was coming from at first. Then we checked the water heaters. Sure enough, both units were old and leaking from the bottom. That water was making its way down and showing up as damage in the bathrooms below.

It wasn't just an inconvenience. A leaking water heater can cause serious water damage if you ignore it. We needed it fixed fast.

Who We Called

I'm Joe, the owner of Fusion MMA & Kickboxing. A few people recommended US Air Conditioning & Heating, a local HVAC and plumbing company right here in Port Jefferson Station. They've been serving Suffolk County since 1985 so I gave them a call.

When I called, Alexa picked up right away. No hold music, no voicemail. She got all my information, understood the urgency, and had someone scheduled quickly. That first call set the tone for the whole experience.

What They Did

Ron, the owner, came out personally to assess both units. He was straightforward about it. Both water heaters were old and leaking from the bottom. That water was making its way down and showing up as damage in the bathrooms below. He didn't try to oversell a repair. He told me replacing both units was the right move and explained exactly why.

His team handled the full water heater replacement in Port Jefferson Station, removing both old units and installing two new Rheem water heaters, one for each bathroom. Rheem is one of the most trusted water heater brands in the country and a smart choice for a busy facility like ours that sees heavy daily use.

The job was clean and efficient. No mess left behind. The leaking stopped and both bathrooms are dry again.

Why We Recommend Them

What stood out to me was how easy the whole process was. Alexa handled the scheduling without any back and forth. Ron was honest and knew exactly what needed to be done. His crew got in, did the work, and cleaned up after themselves.

US Air Conditioning & Heating handles everything in house. They have master plumbers and master electricians on staff, so there's no subcontracting. You deal with one company start to finish.

They're also available 24 hours a day, which matters when you run a facility that's open early and late.

If you own a business or home in Port Jefferson Station or anywhere in Suffolk County and you're dealing with a water heater issue, don't wait until the damage gets worse. Give them a call and ask for Alexa to get the ball rolling.
