The Importance of Regular Water Heater Maintenance

Regular water heater maintenance is crucial for several reasons:

Efficiency: Over time, sediment buildup in your water heater can reduce its efficiency, leading to higher energy bills and longer wait times for hot water. Regular maintenance helps remove this sediment, ensuring optimal performance.
Longevity: A well-maintained water heater can last up to 15 years or more, while neglected units may fail prematurely. Investing in regular maintenance can save you money on costly replacements in the long run.
Safety: Water heaters can pose safety risks if not properly maintained, such as leaks, corrosion, or even explosions. Our technicians can identify and address potential safety issues before they become serious problems.

What Does Water Heater Maintenance Include?

During a water heater maintenance visit, our experienced technicians will:

Inspect the unit for signs of leaks, corrosion, or damage
Flush the tank to remove sediment buildup
Check the anode rod and replace it if necessary
Test the temperature and pressure relief valve
Adjust the thermostat to ensure optimal performance and energy efficiency

Our technicians will also provide you with tips on how to maintain your water heater between professional servicing, such as setting the thermostat to the appropriate temperature and monitoring for signs of leaks or unusual noises.

Signs Your Water Heater Needs Maintenance

While annual maintenance is recommended, there are several signs that your water heater may need immediate attention:

Insufficient hot water: If you’re running out of hot water more quickly than usual, it could be a sign of sediment buildup or a failing heating element.
Strange noises: Popping, crackling, or banging sounds coming from your water heater can indicate sediment buildup or a failing component.
Leaks: Any signs of water leakage around your water heater should be addressed immediately to prevent damage and potential safety hazards.

If you notice any of these issues, contact Sabre Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning right away. Our friendly, knowledgeable service technicians are dedicated to providing you with the services you need, when you need them, at a fair price estimated upfront.

These guys just bailed me out of a “cold spot”. The boiler on my hot water heating system wasn’t working and I couldn’t make contact with my regular service company. Gary came over and diagnosed the problem with help from a few of the other boiler technicians from Sabre. He was in and out in about 30 minutes. My house is getting back to a reasonable temperature. Great customer service!

Great experience with Sabre Plumbing, Heating & Air. We purchased a Carrier furnace & air conditioner from them in 2009. It has worked great & all we have ever needed is routine maintenance. The service guys have been great. I highly recommend Sabre!

I had a Bryant furnace that needed a new secondary heat exchanger that was covered under warranty. I had three bids from three different companies. The first two companies knew it was cold out, being December, and tried to price gouge me. A friend that does hvac recommended Sabre for repairs. They cost me half what the other bids did and did a great job. The person that did the work explained exactly what the issue was and how it was going to be fixed. Definitely recommend them!

Grant came out to our house at 4am on a Sunday for a gas leak and identified and fixed the issue within 20 minutes. He was very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. I am so impressed. Grant even took a moment to put a rug under an appliance so it didn’t scratch the wood floor when he moved the appliance. I would recommend Grant 10/10 times. I’ll call Sabre again if I have a need. Thanks Grant and Rosie.

L.L. Johnson

We needed two visits – Jake came out first and was very knowledgeable and pleasant and polite. Grant came out a couple days later and was also knowledgeable and nice to talk to. They both did a great job. Sabre’s office staff is very helpful, calling prior to the arrival of the technician, and providing the technician’s name and approximate arrival time. They are also well priced for their services. Definitely recommend.

We have worked with Steve for over 14 years and honesty shines through with the bid and what needs to be done. If need be the owner has all the skills to do the work himself. I have watched Sabre grow from two trucks to the size they are today and that does not happen other than by hard work and quality service. If an unfortunate issue does arise they immediately take corrective action.
