Bradbury Brothers Cooling, Heating & Plumbing recommends an annual or bi-annual maintenance plumbing check. All of us hear about the energy and money savings a tankless water heater installation can have. If it’s true (and it is), can we then cut down on plumbing maintenance and service calls?
Tankless Water Heaters and Maintenance/Service
No matter how quickly you respond to problems that may crop up with your
tankless water heater, you will still be playing catchup if you wait for symptoms
to show themselves. By the time a problem has gotten to the point where
something is noticeably wrong, it will have already damaged the water heater.
…This just means you should do more than wait for problems to occur.

First, plumbing maintenance (or in our case, “tune-ups”) is more than a quick water heater check-up. Your entire whole-house plumbing is inspected. This includes all drains and plumbing pipes.
Before you engage any plumber, ask if he or she is knowledgeable about pipe maintenance, repair, and replacement. A clog can go a long time without any symptoms, so drain-cleaning during your tune-up may be a service in which you are interested.
Information for preventive maintenance is valuable and free, so take advantage of your plumbing professional’s experience! Based on the intricacies of your plumbing system, your plumbing professional will advise you on preventive measures you can take year-round.
Keep Your Home Healthy
When it comes to plumbing, a little prevention goes a long way. Annual maintenance (we recommend twice/year) can save you thousands in emergency repairs and prolong the life of your plumbing. Remember, we consider any in-house appliance that uses water a potential source of plumbing problems. Your tankless water heater is one of several “plumbing installations” that need regular inspection.
