Water Heater Maintenance FAQs

How often should I have my water heater maintained?

It’s generally recommended to have your water heater inspected and maintained by a professional once a year. This helps ensure efficient operation, extends the lifespan of your unit, and identifies potential issues before they become major problems.

Can I perform water heater maintenance myself?

While some basic maintenance tasks, such as checking the temperature setting, can be done by homeowners, it’s best to have a professional perform a comprehensive maintenance check. This ensures that all components are thoroughly inspected and serviced, reducing the risk of overlooking potential issues. Consulting with qualified plumbers or electricians who specialize in electrical systems can provide additional assurance of the safety and efficiency of your water heater.

Will regular maintenance prevent all water heater problems?

Regular maintenance significantly reduces the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns by addressing common issues before they escalate. However, it may not prevent all potential problems, especially in older units nearing the end of their lifespan.

As preparation for the summer heat we always have our HVAC unit serviced and inspected for any issues. After reading up on reviews, and receiving multiple quotes, we decided to go with Bud’s. The technicians found no issues and even helped me configure our Nest Thermostat. It turns out our home being older it is not equipped with a Common C-Wire. When the technicians left, our AC was blowing cold and strong. After a few days we realized water dripping and the AC going in and out. It turned out the Nest configuration was overworking the blower motor and it had gone out. I called Bud’s and asked them to come out and help us resolve the problem. Moana quickly responded and on the same day Axel showed up at our door with portable AC units while we waited for the part to come in. Although uncertain of the actual cause for the failure of the blower motor, Moana offered to cover the entire cost of the service and fortunately for us the part was still under warranty. Bud’s showed up when it mattered most and with no hesitation to show that they wanted nothing more than to help. My family and I could not be more impressed and grateful. Thank you for your efficient response and kindness you have shown our family. Highly recommend Bud’s for all your plumbing and HVAC needs.

Buds plumbing was amazing!! All staff is super friendly and easy to talk to. I was connected with Axel regarding my tankless water heater that was not working and ignitor coil needed to be replaced. Axel followed up with me like he said he would until part was received. The weekend was coming up and I was afraid I would have to wait till Monday to get hot water.. but Axel followed up with me like he said. It's nice to know you can count on someone 7 days a-week and to keep their word means a lot.

Bud’s came out on time, assessed all of the plumbing routes for the structure and isolated the leak. I have a clear path with options on how to fix it. Thank you Buds and thanks Axel!

And one who cleans up after themselves.

I totally recommend - Bud's Plumbing Heating and Air.

I recently had a(nother) plumbing issue, they responded, and stayed on top of it till they came up with a solution and resolved it. Once again, II am a satisfied customer and I recommend to any and all their services.

I've used this company since 2007 (Ibought my house in 2006) for all my plumbing issues. They were recommended to me by my neighbors and others who have been long standing clients, all who continue to be more than satisfied with their work.
