Regular maintenance can help extend the lifespan of your water heater, reduce energy bills, and ensure a safe and efficient heating system.
Clean your water heater every 6-12 months to remove mineral deposits and scale buildup. Use a soft brush or cloth to clean around the lid and drain assembly.
Perform a thorough inspection of your water heater, including checking for any signs of leaks, cracks, or damage. Check the element (or heating coil) for corrosion or wear, and replace it if necessary.
Consider scheduling annual professional maintenance with a qualified technician to identify potential issues before they become major problems.
