Tell Tale Signs Your Water Heater Needs Maintenance

Water heaters often go overlooked, but just like any other appliance in your home, they require regular maintenance!  With water heater maintenance, you can extend the life expectancy of your tank and prevent problems.  If you're experiencing any of these problems in your home, you're probably due for water heater maintenance.

Signs You Need Water Heater Maintenance:
  • You Don't Have Hot Water - While this may seem obvious, inadequate, or no hot water entirely, is a sure sign your water heater is not working effectively.  This could have to do with your water demand, or it could be a faulty valve.  With regular water heater maintenance, you can fix these problems and restore hot water in your home.
  • You Have Rust Colored Water - This is likely due to corrosion on the inside of your tank.  You'll likely need your water heater checked out by a professional.
  • There Is A Rotten Egg Smell - Bacteria in your water heater tank can fed on hydrogen gas, causing a rotten egg-like smell.  It might be time to flush your water heater to keep it clean and in good condition.
