Water Heater Care

 

To keep your water heater running properly and efficiently, some very simple maintenance procedures should be performed . Dirt and sediment can settle on the bottom of the tank, making your water heater less efficient. If left unchecked, it can lead to premature replacement of the water heater.

When performing water heater care, such as flushing sediment to ensure optimal performance or draining the tank for a seasonal shut down, it is important to do so safely.

Download our water heater care booklet or watch the videos for instructions on how to keep the water heater performing at its best.
