Your water heater works hard every single day—so when it stops doing its job, you feel it instantly. Cold showers, reduced hot water, and rising energy bills are all signs that your water heater needs maintenance.
One of the most important steps in water heater maintenance is a simple process called “bleeding your water heater.”
Here’s why it matters:
Over time, sediment and mineral buildup collect at the bottom of your tank. This reduces heating efficiency, limits your hot water capacity, and can even damage heating elements or burners.
🔧 Why you should bleed your water heater once a year:
- Improves energy efficiency
- Restores your full hot water supply
- Prevents overheating and costly repairs
- Extends the overall lifespan of the unit
It only takes a few minutes—and it can save you a lot of trouble down the line.
⚠️ Safety note: The water released will be hot. Be careful, or let a professional handle it.
If your water heater still isn’t performing well, or if you’re unsure how to safely maintain it, our technicians are ready to help.
