Bluffton, SC Water Heater Maintenance

Your Howell-Chase Heating and Air Conditioning plumber will complete an overall inspection of your water heater to ensure there is no rust, corrosion, or imminent issues.

Tanked water heaters store water inside of them for fast access and on-demand usage. Because of this, sediment from minerals in the Bluffton, SC water supply can build up around the bottom of the tank. If you neglect to have your water heater tuned-up by professionals every year, this sediment can build up to the point where your water heater will not be able to provide hot water for very long periods of time – or at all for that matter! This is why it is instrumental that you have routine maintenance performed by our trained professionals.

All water heater tanks have an anode rod which dissolves over time while protecting your water heater from rust and corrosion. During your water heater tune-up, we will inspect the anode rod to evaluate if it is in check or if it is in need of replacement. Without a properly functioning anode rod, your water heater will rust, corrode, and eventually fail prematurely.
