Tips for Maintaining Your Water Heater

A well-maintained water heater not only lasts longer but also runs more efficiently, saving you money and avoiding unexpected breakdowns. Here's how to keep yours in top shape:

1. Flush the tank annually

Sediment buildup reduces efficiency and can damage your water heater tank. Have your water heater professionally flushed once a year (we offer this service!) to keep it clean.

2. Check the temperature setting

Keep your water heater thermostat set to 120°F. This is hot enough to prevent bacteria growth but safe enough to avoid scalding and unnecessary energy waste.

3. Test the pressure relief valve

Lift and release the water heater pressure relief valve lever to ensure it works correctly. If water doesn't flow when you test it, have it replaced immediately.

4. Inspect for leaks

Check around the base and fittings of your water heater regularly. Even a small drip can be a sign of a bigger issue.

5. Insulate the tank and pipes

Adding water heater insulation helps reduce heat loss, especially if your heater is in a garage or cold area.

6. Replace the anode rod every 3–5 years

This small but crucial water heater part prevents your tank from rusting inside.

7. Schedule professional maintenance

Annual water heater maintenance can spot problems before they become costly repairs — and keep your warranty valid.
