FAQs
What does your tank water heater preventive maintenance plan include?
Our Ocoee preventive maintenance plan provides a full annual inspection and tune-up of your tank water heater. The visit covers draining and flushing the tank to remove sediment, testing the temperature-pressure relief valve, checking the anode rod, examining gas or electric components for wear, adjusting thermostat settings for efficiency, inspecting supply lines and shut-off valves for leaks, and verifying that the heater meets current safety codes. You also receive priority scheduling and discounted pricing on any parts or additional labor that may be required.
How often will a technician visit my Ocoee home under the plan?
For most standard tank water heaters, a single comprehensive service visit per year is sufficient to keep the unit operating safely and efficiently. However, if your household has exceptionally hard water or higher-than-average hot-water demand, we may recommend semi-annual visits. We schedule your appointment at a convenient time for you and send reminders so your maintenance is never missed.
Why is preventive maintenance important for a tank-style water heater?
Sediment buildup, corrosion, and component wear gradually reduce efficiency and can lead to premature tank failure or safety hazards. Routine maintenance flushes out corrosive minerals, preserves the anode rod that protects the tank, and detects minor issues—such as small leaks or failing thermostats—before they turn into costly emergencies. Well-maintained heaters typically last several years longer and operate with lower energy consumption than neglected units.
Will the maintenance plan help me save money on energy bills and repairs?
Yes. Removing sediment allows the burner or heating elements to transfer heat more efficiently, which can lower energy use by up to 15%. Catching worn parts early prevents surprise breakdowns that often require expensive emergency service or full heater replacement. Many customers recover the cost of the plan through reduced utility bills, avoided repair charges, and extended equipment life.
Do you service all brands and fuel types of tank water heaters?
Absolutely. Our licensed plumbers are trained to work on gas, electric, and propane tank water heaters from every major manufacturer, including Rheem, Bradford White, AO Smith, and more. Whether your unit is a high-efficiency model or an older standard-efficiency tank, we have the parts, tools, and expertise to service it properly.
