Contracting Company Mauritius : Does Your Hot Water Heater Needs Maintenance?

Like we do maintenance to our home comfort system we should also take care about our water heater which we make use of everyday. This system also  requires maintenance.

Our team can entirely inspect it and make adjustments where necessary. We will also report to you about any repair needs during this tune-up so you can get those on your schedule.

MAINTENANCE

The majority of people use a traditional storage tank model water heater which means that water is stored within the water heater itself  for quick access. However, this also allows sediment to build up, usually from hard water (water with a high level of minerals). The build up sediment can also stick to the heat exchanges, which makes your water heater unable to  heat the water to the full degree it should be able to.

Flushing out your water heater to clear the sediment out is crucial in order to keep your water heater working to the fullest extent possible and last longer.

MAINTAINING FULL VOLUME

When sediment and mineral residue take up space in your heater, they reduce the amount of  water the tank can retain. With regular flushing, you can eliminate build-up and benefit full use of  the water tank, increasing the hot water volume of your water heater.

IMPROVE SAFETY

Temperature and pressure valves are the safety devices in your water heater that protect it from extremes by discharging water.  This needs to be tested at least every year.  Similarly, it is important to test the relief valve of your water heater to avoid accidental scalding.
