Water Heater Maintenance in Thousand Oaks, CA

Eliminating tasks throughout your busy day can help free you up for more important things. But water heater maintenance isn’t one of those important responsibilities you want to neglect. In fact, a system that hasn’t been regularly maintained can cause problems that leave you without the hot water you need to live comfortably.

At Thousand Oaks Plumbing, we offer quality, detailed water heater maintenance for residential and commercial customers. With annual maintenance, we can help you avoid reduced hot water, sediment buildup, and more. Don’t wait to have your water heater inspected; trust our technicians for same-day support. 

How Often Should My Water Heater Be Checked?

Various maintenance tasks should be performed annually, including draining or flushing the tank and inspecting the pressure relief valve. However, you should have your anode rod checked every three to five years to ensure it’s working correctly.

6 Signs Your Water Heater is Overdue for Maintenance

1. Decreased Hot Water or Fluctuations in Temperature

Decreasing hot water or temperatures that greatly fluctuate could point to a malfunctioning heating element. Regular flushing can help prevent this, which our plumbers can handle for you.

2. Rusty or Discolored Hot Water

Discolored water is a sign of corrosion inside the tank that could be caused by an aging anode rod. If the problem is more severe, our plumbers in Thousand Oaks may recommend water heater repair.

3. Strange Unexplained Noises

Popping, banging, or rumbling sounds from your water heater can be a sign of sediment buildup. Flushing or bleeding air can address these issues. This may also be a sign of hard water, which we can tackle with a water softener system.

4. Leaks Near the Unit

Leaks around the water heater tank, pipes, or pressure relief valve can signal loose connections, corrosion, or a failing tank. Our plumbers in Thousand Oaks can immediately address these issues.

5. Less Hot Water Than Usual

If you notice a decrease in the overall volume of available hot water, it could be due to sediment buildup, which a whole house water filter can help prevent.

6. Higher Energy Bills

No one wants to pay more money for an inconsistently operating unit. However, an inefficient water heater can lead to increased energy consumption and higher utility bills. We can help lower these bills by performing regular maintenance.

Let’s keep your water heater performing at optimal levels. Call (805) 741-5155 to schedule your maintenance service in Thousand Oaks.
