Water heaters are under a lot of stress constantly having to heat your water and keep the temperature at a constant 120 degrees. There are many problems that can arise with your Orlando water heater from not heating to leaking. The average water heater lasts between 8-10 years while some last 20 or more years. The most important thing that you can do to help your water heater last longer is to perform an Orlando water heater service once a year to help it last longer.
We have extremely hard water and when the cold water is heated up in the tank the minerals in the water condense and sink to the bottom. After years of working if you don’t do an Orlando water heater service the minerals build up and start to fill up your tank. This not only can damage your water heater, it is also a waste of energy. Your water heater is less efficient and can cut down on the capacity of your tank. For example if you have a 15 year old 40 gallon water heater that has never been serviced you could be only working with 20 gallons of hot water. The next thing is the sediment that sinks to the bottom of the tank and surround the heating element and not allow water to submerse. This is bad because elements have to stay submersed in water or they can over heat and burst. Orlando water heater service is easy and you can do it yourself.
Most people think they have to drain the tank empty but this is not true, all you have to do is hook a hose to the bottom of the water heater, turn the breaker off and leave the water on to the unit, open the valve at the bottom of the tank and let it run until the water out of the hose is clear. This is very easy to do and doing this once a year could save you big time, not only in having to call an Orlando plumber but also on your electric bill.
