Prevent Costly Breakdowns with Routine Water Heater Maintenance

Your water heater works hard every day to provide the comfort of hot water. But without regular maintenance, it can lose efficiency, wear out faster, and lead to costly repairs. A proactive approach ensures reliable performance and peace of mind.

Essential Water Heater Maintenance Tips

  • Flush the Tank Annually – Removes sediment that builds up and reduces efficiency.

  • Check the Anode Rod – Prevents tank corrosion and extends its lifespan.

  • Test the Pressure Relief Valve – Ensures safe operation under pressure.
