6 Benefits of Water Heater Maintenance

Routine water heater maintenance offers a wide range of benefits to Maryland homeowners. Some of the benefits include:

  • Improved efficiency: During a tune-up, your technician will flush sediment and mineral deposits from your system to keep it energy-efficient.
  • Greater safety: Our team will ensure your system is free of dangerous gas leaks or malfunctioning pressure relief valves.
  • Better performance: These routine tasks help ensure that your system provides consistent water temperature and prevent fluctuations.
  • Reduced risk of breakdown: Minor issues are often found and fixed during maintenance appointments before they become major problems, reducing your risk of future breakdowns or expensive repairs.
  • Extended lifespan: Preventative maintenance can reduce unnecessary wear and tear on your system which results in a longer lifespan and delayed need for replacement. 
  • Warranty compliance: By scheduling annual maintenance, homeowners can keep their warranty valid which can help to offset future repair costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often does my water heater need maintenance?

We recommend that you schedule water heater maintenance annually. With a yearly inspection, you can ensure that your system is working properly. However, if you notice a reduction in energy efficiency or performance, you can schedule one sooner.

How much does maintenance extend the lifespan of my water heater?

While there is a difference between tankless and standard systems, a well-maintained water heater has an average lifespan of 10 to 15 years. A system that is not maintained may last anywhere from three to five years less and will require a premature replacement.

What does water heater maintenance include?

During a tune-up, our technicians will flush your tank to remove sediment or buildup. We will also inspect the anode rod to ensure you’re protected against rust. Once we’ve checked for any leaks and confirmed that your pressure relief valve is working, we’ll make any necessary adjustments to your thermostat and make sure your burner is working properly. While comprehensive, this service doesn’t take more than an hour.

Staying local made sure that I was taken care of once again. Called on a Thursday and they had someone out by 8am on Friday. Al did a phenomenal job! I explained the issues, he gave me 4 different solution options with pricing, answered all my questions, kept everything clean and sanitary, and was so kind. Job was completed the same day and was reasonably priced. As a single female I didn't feel like I was manipulated for extra services or overpriced, I was treated with complete respect. I'll certainly use them again!

The whole process was very easy. From making the appointment online and the confirmation via text message, they sent me a photo of the plumber who was going to come to my house. The day of the appointment the plumber called me to tell me that he was on his way. Upon arrival at the house he was very professional and courteous. He explained everything to me in great detail. I recommend this company 100% and they accept all kinds of payments plus a guarantee on the job for one year.

Sam came out for the estimate and recorded everything they were going to do along with taking photos. Job was redoing feed and drain lines under the sink, and installing a new dishwasher and disposal. Called on Monday to schedule once the dishwasher was delivered, and they had us booked for the next day. Al showed up on time for appointment, completed all work quickly, leak checked, ran washer and disposal to verify correct operation, took photos to document, and packed out all the debris. Under $900 parts and labor, including new cutoff valves, new washer feed line, new sink trap, removal and reinstall of disposal and dishwasher, including supplies. Charged exactly what was provided on the job estimate. Highly recommended.

I absolutely recommend Prime Plumbing. I called them after seeing positive Google reviews. The office agent got an appointment 3 hours after I called. The technician called me 5-10 minutes before arrival. Will, the technician was super professional and thoughtful about the space. He wore the disposable shoe protectors as to not bring the outdoors inside. He was mindful not to use machinery that would harm my home. He also answered my questions with a friendly and pleasant demeanor. The problem was fixed and I was so happy. 5 stars!

Amara B.

A real person answered the phone at 4:30 pm and not a long voicemail. It was easy to schedule an appointment. Information regarding upfront consultation fee was provided during the phone call. Reminder text message was sent one day before the appointment. On the day of the appointment, an additional text message with the picture of the plumber who is coming was sent. Overall a very pleasant experience. Our plumber was knowledgeable and professional. He also made sure to put on booties which I really appreciated
