Your water heater works tirelessly every day to supply you and your household with hot water as and when required. Whenever you turn on the hot water faucet or shower, you expect hot water to rush out, and rightly so given that you spent a substantial amount of money on having this critical bit of your home’s plumbing installed.

However, even the best water heaters are bound to develop various issues that affect their performance and efficiency with time. Annual water heater inspections are meant to ensure that any water heater issues are detected and resolved as early as possible; thus keeping your water heater in perfect working condition for as long as possible.

Read on below to learn more about why you need to schedule regular water heater inspections.

Boost Efficiency

With time, the accumulation of rust, minerals, and sediments in your water heater causes a decrease in its performance. This means that the heater may struggle to heat up the water to your desired temperature. Furthermore, the water heater also consumes more energy when it has to work longer and harder to raise the water temperature to the desired level, making your home less energy efficient.

An annual water heater inspection makes it possible for you to discover any build ups that may negatively affect the performance of your water heater. To maintain optimum performance of the water heater, a plumbing technician can flush out any accumulated minerals, rust or sediments, as part of the inspection.

Extended Service

Water heaters usually are expected to offer around eight to twelve years of reliable service before they need to be replaced. Annual water heater maintenance not only helps ensure that your water heater lasts this long, even with regular use but can also extend it.

By ensuring optimum operation of the water heater at all times, regular water inspections make it possible for you to extend the life of your water heater.

Minimize The Risk Of Unexpected Breakdowns

Having your water heater breakdown unexpectedly can be quite inconvenient. You can forget about hot water for the time being, until a plumbing specialist comes in, finds the issue and fixes it. However, with regular water heater inspections, any problems can be detected and resolved as early as possible before they escalate into serious issues.

Now that you have a clear idea of just how crucial annual water heater inspections are, make sure that you schedule one today, and start enjoying the associated benefits as soon as possible.
