Remember to Maintain the Water Heater 

Most spring cleaning checklists revolve around cleaning up the house, but one of the things that should be included on every spring cleaning checklist is water heater maintenance. Springtime is the perfect time to remember to schedule maintenance since other home improvement projects are going on anyway. Here is a short guide to water heater maintenance and its benefits. 

Why is it Necessary to Flush the Water Heater? 

flushRegular draining and flushing of a water heater tank are essential for the maintenance and longevity of the appliance. Over time, sediment and mineral deposits can accumulate inside the hot water tank, reducing energy efficiency, raising energy bills, and potentially damaging internal components. This buildup can also cause corrosion, which can cause leaks and affect the quality of hot water provided to the home. 

Flushing out these sediments will help ensure that the water heater is functioning correctly and efficiently and cost less to run. It will also help the water heater continue to provide the household with clean, hot water. In most cases, flushing the tank once or twice a year is recommended to maintain optimal performance.

More Water Heater Maintenance Tasks for Experts 

maintenanceOther maintenance tasks must also be done regularly besides flushing the water heater tank. It is vital to check all valves associated with the water heater and ensure they are in good working condition. Additionally, the anode rod must be replaced every few years once it wears out as part of regular maintenance. The anode rod helps protect the water heater from corrosion, which helps prolong its life. 

Additionally, checking the temperature and pressure relief valve can help prevent dangerous situations. If it is not working correctly, it should be replaced immediately to keep the home safe. By taking the time to perform these and additional tasks on a water heater, plumbers can help ensure it remains in optimal condition for as long as possible.

Benefits of Regular Maintenance

Having routine maintenance performed on the water heater has many benefits, including the following: 

  • Extend the lifespan of the system
  • Avoid costly repairs and premature replacements 
  • Improve energy efficiency
  • Keep energy bills lower

Additionally, regular maintenance of a water heater helps to ensure that it is running safely. This is especially important with an older system, as corrosion, rust, and sediment buildup can cause serious safety risks. Finally, having a well-maintained water heater will help ensure households always have hot water when needed. This is because the system can quickly and effectively heat the water, meaning no more cold showers or waiting for hot water.
