Water Heater Draining

When plumbing professionals talk about draining your water heater, they’re not talking about what happens when you stand in the shower so long that you use up all the hot water. They’re talking about an important preventative maintenance task that should be done once or twice a year.

The water that flows into your house and through your pipes isn’t pure. It contains materials that can cause sediment to accumulate at the bottom of your water heater’s tank. When there’s sediment, your water heater doesn’t work as efficiently, wasting money and shortening the life of this expensive piece of equipment. Periodically draining a gallon or two off the bottom can flush out the gunk and keep your water heater running at peak efficiency.

Of course, you can tackle this job yourself. The trouble is that in addition to the usual risks of do-it-yourself plumbing projects, draining a water heater carries the added risk of serious burns to yourself and serious damage to the water heater. If you have been successful with plumbing projects in the past, you can look up how to drain your own water heater and give it a try. But if you want to protect yourself, your water heater, and your home, it’s best to bring in a skilled expert like the folks at All About the Pipes.
