Water Heater Maintenance 

Your Holt Plumbing & Heating plumber will complete an overall inspection of your water heater to ensure there is no rusting or corroding or any imminent issues and repairs in regards to your unit.

Tank water heaters store water inside of them for fast access and on-demand usage. Because of this, sediment from minerals in the West Des Moines water supply can build up around the bottom of the tank. If you neglect to have your water heater tuned-up by professionals every year, this sediment can build-up to the point where your water heater will not be able to provide hot water for very long periods of time or at all, for that matter. This is why it is instrumental that you have Professional Water Heater Maintenance and Tune-Up Services performed by professionals at Holt Plumbing & Heating at least once a year.

All water heater tanks have an anode rod which dissolves over time while protecting your water heater from rust and corrosion. During your water heater tune-up, your Holt Plumbing & Heating plumber will inspect the anode rod to evaluate if it is in check or if it is in need of replacement. Without a properly functioning anode rod, your water heater will rust, corrode, and eventually fail prematurely.
