Why Water Heater Maintenance Is Crucial
Your water heater is an essential part of your home, but it often goes unnoticed until something goes wrong. Like any other appliance in your home, your water heater requires regular maintenance to perform its best. Here are a few reasons why it is important to have your water heater regularly serviced by a professional plumbing technician:
- Prevent Unexpected Breakdowns
One of the most frustrating things to experience is an unexpected breakdown of your water heater. Imagine waking up on a cold morning only to find that your water heater is not working, leaving you without hot water for the day. Or worse, you walk in to your water heater pouring water throughout your home. Regular maintenance can help identify small issues before they become huge problems. A professional plumbing technician can check your water heater’s components to ensure they are functioning properly, saving you from a future emergency repair. - Extend the Lifespan of Your Unit
Water heaters are an expensive and necessary appliance of your home, so you want to make sure yours lasts as long as possible. With regular inspections and maintenance, the life expectancy of your water heater can be extended. During regular operation of your water heater, sediment can build up inside your tank as a result of the water heating process. These sediments builds up around the heating elements, tank walls, and valves, reducing efficiency and capacity. A technician will flush the tank to remove this sediment, and help the system run smoothly and preventing premature wear and tear. - Improve Energy Efficiency
A water heater that is running efficiently can help you save money on your energy bills. When components are damaged or sediment builds up around key parts of your water heater, it may have to work harder to heat the water for your home. This can lead to an increase of energy usage and higher than normal energy bills. Regular Maintenance of you water heater helps keep it running smoothly, ensuring it uses less energy to provide the same level of heating performance.
Ensure Consistent Hot Water
When taking a shower, cooking, or washing clothes, having access to consistent hot water is crucial. A malfunctioning water heater can lead to various issues including water temperature fluctuations, leaving you without hot water when you need it the most. Regular maintenance ensures your water heater is providing a steady flow of hot water, keeping your home comfortable and your routine uninterrupted.
Common Water Heater Problems and How Maintenance Helps
Over time, your water heater may experience certain issues that can be easily found and corrected through maintenance. Here are some of the most common problems that occur:
- Sediment Build-Up
As water heats, minerals like calcium and magnesium that ae common in our water can settle at the bottom of the tank. This sediment build-up can decrease the overall efficiency of your water heater and may eventually cause unrepairable damage to the tank. Regular flushing of the tank, helps remove this sediment, improving performance and help prevent long-term tank damage. - Corrosion and Rust
When your water heater gets old or has been improperly maintained, it may begin to corrode. Rust in the water or on the outside of the tank is a sign that the unit may need repair or replacement. Regular maintenance and inspection of your water heater can catch early signs of corrosion, allowing you to address the problem before it becomes more severe or an emergency. - Faulty Thermostat
Your water heater has a thermostat that controls the temperature of the water in your tank. If it’s not working correctly, your water heater may not heat the water enough or resulting in a more dangerous situation: overheating the water beyond its set point. A technician can check the thermostat during regular routine maintenance and recalibrate it if necessary, ensuring your water stays at the right temperature. - Leaking Tank
A leaking water heater is a serious issue. If left unchecked, it can cause costly water damage to your home and require extensive repairs. A plumbing technician can inspect the tank for signs of leaks during a maintenance visit, potentially helping you catch small leaks before they come serious issues.
