You may be aware of the necessity of furnace maintenance, but do you give your water heater the same level of attention each year? Your water heater may run quietly in the background, but it’s one of your home’s most hardworking appliances. You’d be stuck with only ice-cold water for bathing, showering, cooking, and cleaning if you didn’t have it. Learn more about the necessity of water heater maintenance and how to keep your water heater in good working order.

Benefits of Water Heater Maintenance

It’s easy to neglect your water heater, but making routine maintenance a priority provides many benefits:

Lower water heating bills: Sediment buildup is a common problem with storage tank water heaters, particularly in Utah, where the tap water is quite hard. Flushing your water heater is a definite technique to boost efficiency and save money on your water heating bills.
Longer lifespan: If you don’t take care of your water heater, it could break down in as short as eight years. Its lifespan can be extended to ten years or longer with regular maintenance.
Less danger of inconvenient breakdowns: Nobody wants to start their day by being blasted with cold water. Inconvenient breakdowns become less probable as maintenance catches little faults and prevents many more from arising.
Regular maintenance gives you peace of mind by ensuring that your water heater is operating effectively and safely. The tranquilly that resulted

Signs You Need Water Heater Repair

Even if your water heater appears to be in good working order, make it a routine to maintain it once a year. Otherwise, you can begin to notice performance issues that necessitate a fix, such as:

No or insufficient hot water: A sudden and complete lack of hot water is difficult to miss, but it’s not the only clue that your water heater needs to be repaired. You should also keep an eye out for less hot water output or water that takes longer than usual to warm up at the tap.
Strange noises: Some water heater noises are completely innocuous, while others should be avoided. If you hear noises that aren’t normal, don’t take chances—call a specialist to diagnose and repair the problem.

• Colored or strange-smelling hot water: Your tap water should always be clear, and no scents should be detected. Rust-colored water or a metallic odour could indicate that your water heater needs to be serviced, particularly if only the hot water is damaged.
• If your water heater springs a leak, it’s a clear sign that you need help. Any leaks you see, no matter how minor, should not be ignored. If you don’t deal with a slow drip right away, it can evolve into a much greater problem.
