Water Heater Repair in Flower Mound, TX
68% of households in Flower Mound heat with gas. That is the strongest free clue to what kind of water heater is in your basement, and it decides which faults are even possible.
Answer first
Knowing what Flower Mound burns is worth more over the telephone than any description of the symptom, and 68% of households there heat with gas. House heating fuel predicts the water heater without proving it. A gas unit fails at the pilot, the thermocouple, the gas control valve, or a flue that will not draft.

What Flower Mound runs on
Most households here burn gas, which means the tank usually has a flame under it and a vent above it, and both can be the reason for cold water.
| Fuel | Share of households |
|---|---|
| Gas — mains and bottled | 68% |
| Electricity | 32% |
| Fuel oil and kerosene | under 1% |
| Everything else | under 1% |
Drawn from table B25040 of the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 5-year estimates, 2023 release — 27,028 occupied housing units across Flower Mound.
Texas statewide runs 29 points higher on gas, so this town is not typical of it.
One caveat, because it matters: the Census measures the fuel a household heats the HOUSE with, not the fuel it heats WATER with. The two track each other closely — a gas line to the furnace usually feeds the tank as well — but they are not the same number.
Which one do you have
Not sure which you have? A metal flue rising off the top is a gas heater. Two small access panels on the side and no flue is an electric one. Establish the fuel first; almost every useful question after that depends on it.
Then the symptom. Nothing at all and not enough are different faults, and treating them as one is how the wrong part gets replaced.
