Does A Water Heater Need Maintenance?

Your tank water heater does need annual maintenance to get the best performance and many years of uninterrupted service. You risk voiding the manufacturer warranty if the heating appliance fails from no yearly inspections and cleanings. Furthermore, the longer your heating unit goes without a tune-up, it ages the equipment rapidly and invites costly repairs.

Eventually, you’ll find water leaks around the base or underneath the water heater. The sediment buildup inside the tank will grow, causing the heating element to corrode and lose the ability to heat the water. That means you can’t wash your clothes, clean your dishes, or bathe comfortably. When that happens, you will have to buy a new water heater.

What Maintenance is Required for Water Heaters?

Depending on the water heater model, maintenance is a straightforward process. All models receive a thorough inspection from top to bottom and inside the tank. Here are a few maintenance requirements Smylie One plumbing experts perform.

Check Water Pressure – At the drain valve and hose bib, the water pressure gets checked.

Control Water Pressure – The Pressure Reducing Valve gets set to protect appliances.

Control Thermal Expansion – The expansion tank gets pressurized to control thermal expansion

T&P Relief Valve – The Temperature and Pressure relief valve gets inspected per the valve label’s instructions.

Drain and Flush Tank – Emptying and flushing the tank removes sediments, giving full access to in-tank component inspection.

Check/Replace Anode Rod – An anode rod gets checked every 2-3 years and replaced if significantly depleted.

Though this is a brief checklist of required maintenance, you can expect your water heater to receive a thorough inspection and deep cleaning. Also, resetting if necessary, any old parts replaced, and technical issues resolved.
