A veteran-owned company restored hot water for a Las Vegas couple

A Las Vegas couple has hot water again after more than six months without a working water heater, FOX5 Las Vegas reported. Eugene Gaines said he and his wife had been taking cold showers. They live with health problems, and he said warm water would help their muscles. They had entered a contest with Semper Fi Heating and Cooling, a veteran-owned company that focuses on military families and veterans, and at first tried to turn down an in-home estimate because they did not want to waste the company's time.

A technician came anyway on October 30, listened, and told company leaders. Plumbing manager Michael Scavetta said Gaines had other plumbing problems, and that the least the company could do was give them hot water. The article is the installation of that heater. It does not say the rest of the plumbing was repaired.
