What Does Professional Water Heater Maintenance Involve?

At Ken Griffin Plumbing Services, we offer comprehensive water heater maintenance services for both tank and tankless water heaters. No matter which type you have, maintenance can improve every aspect of how your water heater performs. Our maintenance checklist can include:

Inspections: Our technicians will thoroughly inspect your water heater to look for signs of trouble. Key elements of an inspection can be 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: Over time, sediment and minerals will clog the water heater and reduce its efficiency. 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, we can go ahead and make necessary repairs before it gets worse or affects other parts of your water heater. Needless to say, completing water heater repair now is often less expensive than a full repair appointment.

Replacement Parts: If any components in your water heater need replacing, we only work with superior replacement parts to ensure your water heater enjoys the same standards of quality. For example, we recommend replacing the anode rod every few years since it is designed to collect minerals including magnesium, iron, limestone and more.
