Why Get Your Tankless Water Heater Maintained
There are a few key benefits to getting your tankless water heater maintained regularly by an expert plumber. Below we’ve laid out some of the reasons to stay up-to-date on your tune ups.
Longer Lifespan
Tankless hot water heaters can be expected to last up to two whole decades, but only if they’re maintained properly by professionals on a regular basis. The plumbers at Pioneer Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, & Electrical will be able to notice any signs of wear and tear and perform tune ups to remediate its negative effects on the unit’s longevity. Once your tankless water heater can no longer be repaired, we’ll also perform your replacement services.
More Energy Efficient
Buildup of minerals as well as calcium and magnesium inside the heat exchanger of your tankless water heater and piping can force your unit to need to use more energy to heat the water. Maintenance will include a flush that will get rid of the sediment within your system.
Avoid Preventable Repairs
Another negative outcome of sediment and mineral buildup is wear and tear and damage to your tankless water heater’s components, including the heat exchanger. The flush performed during the tune up will prevent the need for associated costly repairs in the future. Any other burgeoning problems will also be noticed during the inspection and addressed based on your water heater’s needs.
Maintained Warranty
It’s likely the manufacturer of your tankless water heater will require routine maintenance in order to stay within compliance of its terms and conditions. The plumbers at Pioneer are all certified and able to perform these services without voiding your warranty. This can help save you money in the future if something goes wrong you need your warranty to cover.
