Taking Care of Your Water Heater

It’s no secret that a water heater is practically a necessity, but many homeowners and business owners take it for granted. A water heater can break down in the blink of an eye, leaving you with cold showers and the task of scheduling a water heater repair in Burbank. Responsible homeowners should take care of the water heater with routine maintenance and inspections. Here are some tips:

• Set the water heater’s thermostat to 120 degrees. Anything higher is unnecessary and can even overwork or overheat the unit.
• Flush the hot water heater tank installation once or twice a year to remove sediment and debris buildup.
• Test the temperature & pressure relief valve and replace if necessary
• Check the anode rod(s) and replace if necessary
• Add insulation to the water heater and pipes

These simple steps alone should save you on energy bills and reduce the risk of property damage. Call Rooter Hero if you are having problems or would like to schedule an annual water heater maintenance appointment.

Do You Notice These Issues?

Many homeowners and business owners don’t know their water heater is faulty until it is too late. Don’t wait until the water heater stops working altogether. Keep your eyes – and nose and ears – peeled for the following signs of trouble:

• Unusual hissing, boiling, or banging sounds coming from the water heater
• Foul smell of rotten eggs or burning coming from the water heater
• A leaking water heater
• Inconsistent water temperatures or extremely hot water
• Discolored or smelly hot water
• Low water pressure from hot faucets
