Regular Maintenance Checklist

Like any other appliance in your home, your water heater needs regular check-ups. Think of this as a "health check" to nip any issues in the bud before they grow into major problems. Here is a simple checklist to help you keep track of the regular maintenance tasks:

  • Inspection: Start with a general inspection every six months. Look for any signs of wear and tear, leaks, or rust.
  • Draining the Tank: To prevent sediment buildup, you’ll need to drain the tank at least once a year.
  • Pressure Relief Valve Check: This valve is a safety feature that prevents excess pressure build-up. Ensure it is functioning correctly.
  • Temperature Setting: To avoid scalding water and to save on energy bills, set the temperature to a comfortable 120°F.
  • Anode Rod Inspection: The anode rod prevents your tank from rusting. Check it annually and replace it if necessary.
  • Insulate the Tank: Adding insulation can help reduce heat loss and save on energy costs.

Types of Water Heaters

Understanding the type of water heater you have is essential in maintenance as different types have varied requirements. First, we have tankless water heaters. They give you hot water only when you need it, helping to save energy. But remember, they need a check-up every year to keep working well. On the other hand, we have the more traditional storage tank water heaters, which hold hot water in a tank until it is used. Owners of this type should carry out regular inspections to prevent sediment buildup, a common issue with these systems. Getting to know your water heater means you can make a maintenance plan that fits it perfectly, helping to keep it working for longer.

Signs Your Water Heater Needs Servicing

Over time, water heaters show signs of wear and tear, indicating that it's time for a service. Be on the lookout for:

  • Inconsistent Water Temperature: If the water fluctuates between hot and cold, it’s a sign that your heater is struggling.
  • Strange Noises: Sounds like popping, cracking, or rumbling point to sediment buildup at the bottom of the tank.
  • Cloudy or Rusty Water: This indicates a problem with the tank or the pipes.
  • Leaks: Water pooling around your water heater is a sign that internal tanks might be leaking.
  • Low Hot Water Pressure: This could be due to sediment buildup in the tank reducing the flow of water.

Spotting these signs early can prevent more serious problems down the line, so always keep an attentive eye on your water heating system.

Why Hire a Professional

While DIY might seem tempting to save a few bucks, when it comes to water heater maintenance and repair, hiring a professional is your safest bet for the following reasons:

  • Safety: Professionals are trained to handle different types of water heaters safely, preventing accidents like scalding or burns.
  • Training and Experience: A professional plumber has the necessary experience to diagnose and fix problems quickly and efficiently.
  • Cost-Efficient: In the long run, hiring a professional can save you money as they can spot and fix minor issues before they escalate.
  • Peace of Mind: Knowing that a trained eye has inspected and approved of your water heater’s condition offers priceless peace of mind.

Our service technician, Chris,  showed up on time was professional and friendly.  I had a leak coming out of the bottom of the wall in the garage.  Chris was able to diagnose the leak quickly and take care of the problem.  He explained every step of the process.  Would highly recommend Speed Plumbing, Inc.

Unfortunately, High Speed plumbing was my 2nd call. The first guy to arrive said the whole toilet... seat and tank needed to be replaced, and it would cost $$$$. I believed it was the flapper valve, so I sent them on their way. Ron,  and his helper Jaime, arrived from High Speed... took a look, told me it's your flapper valve... and it'll cost $$. 10 minutes later they were done and gone. Solid, respectful, and professional!!!

Found a slab leak steaming from my garage near my water heater on a Thursday evening. Chris was on the job by 9:30 am on Friday. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional and took the time to include me in all that was doing. Cesar showed up midway through the job to lend Chris a hand and both gentlemen did FANTASTIC work! I will most definitely be calling them again for any future work I may need! Update: We had a second leak in a different area of the house on Sunday. Made a call and Ron came out to solve that problem efficiently and professionally. Can’t say enough the great work that team does over at High Speed Plumbing. So glad I made that initial call!

Called Juan at night about a gas leak the Gas Co, found that caused the Gas Co to red tag the meter and shut it off. Juan sent Christopher the next morning. He is a great guy with a great attitude and super professional skill. His ethics are high. High Speed I was told is a term used in military(veteran owned and staffed company) that denotes someone who is quick, resourceful and accurate at getting issues dealt with. By that standard Chris is definitely a "high speed" Thank you and may God Bless you and your Company  :-)

Same day service inspection and estimate was provided.  Service was offered same day, but we scheduled it to fit our convenience and they were very accommodating.   New tankless water heater installed and old water tank removed.  Roof venting work performed as well.  No complaints.  Happy to use them in the future.

John, Service Manager was very knowledgeable, professional and a very pleasant gentleman.  He assessed our plumbing issues and recommended that a restoration company come out and access the water damage due to ongoing toilet/piping issue from our upstairs restroom.  It's been running into our kitchen cabinet downstairs.  Luckily, our home insurance guy called while the John was still here.  John was able to give the Adjuster the information needed to have Service Master's come out tonight to assessment the water damage. I'm so grateful that John took the time to explain and show me the issues we were having. . John, you were truly heaven sent.  Your honesty and direction was much appreciated. Thank you.
