When it comes to maintaining your tankless water heater, it's crucial to trust the experts. Here are the key services that should be handled by a licensed plumber:
- Descale your tankless water heater annually to remove mineral deposits. For those with soft to normal water, yearly maintenance is recommended. If you have hard water, more frequent descaling may be necessary.
- Ensure the fan blades, heat exchanger, and main burner are clean by having a plumber use compressed air. Take the opportunity to have these parts inspected as well during the cleaning process.
- If your unit has a pressure relief valve, have a plumber test its functionality on an annual basis.
- Ask your plumber to inspect the motor, fan, and vents for any potential issues. They should also perform preventative repairs or lubrication as needed.
