What Should You Expect from Water Heater Maintenance?

At Taylor Heating Inc., it’s important that our maintenance technicians are capable of providing maintenance for both tank and tankless water heaters. Regardless of which type you prefer, maintenance should improve every aspect of how your water heater performs. Our maintenance checklist can include:

Inspections: Our technicians will thoroughly inspect your water heater to identify any issues or potential problems. Some of the most important parts of an inspection are checking the pressure relief valve, thermostat settings and other components. Sometimes an issue can be resolved with simple tasks like recalibrating the thermostat, which may be necessary if the water isn’t being heated properly.

Cleaning and Draining/Flushing: Over time, sediment and minerals will clog the water heater and reduce its efficiency. Draining the water heater makes it easier to remove 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, we can minimize the risk of further trouble by making any needed repairs right then and there. Understandably, performing water heater repair now is usually more affordable compared to a full repair appointment.

Replacement Parts: If any components in your water heater need replacing, we have access to superior replacement parts to ensure your water heater continues to function properly. For instance, the anode rod should be replaced every few years since it’s designed to attract mineral buildup like magnesium, iron, limestone and more.
