Regular professional maintenance can improve the efficiency of your tankless water heater. Primarily, RichCo Plumbing & Drains technicians can enhance the efficiency of your tankless water heater by flushing the system. Your tankless water heater system should be flushed at least once a year. Flushing your tankless water heater system is needed in order to remove any scaling that has accumulated. Scaling occurs as a result of minerals in the water flowing through your system. This creates what is called “hard water.”

By having your tankless water heater regularly maintained by a professional technician, the unit will have improved functionality and you’ll know you can rely on it to heat the water in your home. Most tankless water heaters should be serviced professionally twice a year.

Professional maintenance can also prolong the lifespan of your tankless water heater by addressing any issues that might need to be repaired, before they become bigger, more expensive issues. A prolonged lifespan for your tankless water heater system also protects the substantial investment you’ve made in the unit, ensuring that it lasts as long as possible.
