Water Heater Maintenance Services
Water heater maintenance services should always be completed by a qualified water heater contractor. Without the proper training, components are more likely to be fixed incorrectly and break down in the future. Our water heater maintenance services get the job done the first time. These include water heater flushing, water heater tune-up services, and tankless maintenance.
Water Heater Flushing
Over time, sediment collects at the bottom of your water heater tank. Typically, every six months to a year, this sediment needs to be cleared with a water heater service. That’s where professional water heater flushing services come in handy. Our trained plumbers can drain your current tank of water to remove any dirty parts underneath it that harm your unit’s efficiency.
While water heater sediment isn’t harmful at first, if left untreated for a few years, it can cause your water heater to crack or burst. Water heater sediment typically comes from the presence of hard water. Hard water is a build-up of Magnesium and Calcium in your tap water.
Water Heater Tune-Up
A water heater tune-up is water heater annual maintenance. Unlike regular maintenance, water heater annual maintenance focuses on the efficiency of your water heater. Our plumbers will run diagnostics on your unit and recommend any necessary repairs. In addition, we can discuss ways to keep your water heater in its best condition moving forward.
Water heater tune-up services are regularly the time when your tank is flushed, the gas valve is checked, and your system is inspected for leaks. We can also test your water’s temperature to ensure your home is getting the most out of your water heater unit, and it isn’t time for a replacement service. We can also help you with new installations if they are necessary.
Tankless Water Heater Maintenance
Tankless water heaters typically need less maintenance than traditional water heaters. However, it’s still important to get them looked at by a water heater contractor at least once a year. During a tankless water heater service, we will likely flush your system for sediment, similar to a traditional water heater. We will also check for inefficient heating.
During tankless water heater maintenance, we can also teach homeowners more about their machines. Tankless water heaters save water and cut costs, by not continuing to use it. However, the trade-off is their capacity. Homeowners, often experience tankless water heater issues because their system is overloaded by too much back-to-back hot water use.
