Tankless Water Heater Maintenance

 

Introduction:

There’s a lot of things that require regular maintenance. Bi-annual dental appointments are important to keep those pearly whites clean. Your smoke alarms should be checked when changing the batteries when the time changes, twice a year to ensure they are functional.  But, what about that fancy, tankless water heater that provides you with endless hot water?

Question:

True or False? Tankless water heaters are maintenance free.

Answer:

FALSE – Just like any mechanical system, there is required maintenance.  However, the frequency of service depends on the manufacturer of your tankless water heater.  The most popular brand (Rinnai) recommends annual maintenance, while some others (Noritz) does not set a timeframe for service.   We recommend you consult with the Owners Manual or contact an authorized representative for specific details about maintenance requirements and service intervals.
