What Should You Expect from Water Heater Maintenance?

At HomeSmart, it’s important that our maintenance technicians are capable of providing maintenance for both tank and tankless water heaters. No matter which type you have, maintenance can improve every aspect of your water heater’s performance. Our maintenance checklist can include:

Inspections: Our technicians will thoroughly inspect your water heater in case a problem is lurking beneath the surface. Some of the most important parts of an inspection are checking the pressure relief valve, thermostat settings and other components. Minor problems are sometimes fixable during steps like recalibrating the thermostat, which may be necessary if the water isn’t being heated properly.

Cleaning and Draining/Flushing: A common reason for a loss in efficiency is the buildup of minerals and sediment inside your water heater. Fully emptying the water heater helps eliminate any sediment buildup while also making it possible to clean the burner assembly or heating element.

Quick/Minor Repairs: When damage or other issues are found in the course of our inspection, it’s the perfect opportunity to go ahead and complete the needed repairs. Needless to say, performing water heater repair now is usually more affordable compared to a full repair appointment.

Replacement Parts: If a part is about to break, we have access to superior replacement parts to ensure your water heater doesn’t suffer a loss in overall quality. For instance, the anode rod should be replaced every few years since it’s designed to collect minerals including magnesium, iron, limestone and more.
