Advanced Inspection | Water Heater Inspection 507-721-0922
Most people don’t give much thought to their water heater. As long as water keeps flowing, everything must be fine! But that may not be true. The sediment forms a layer of insulation between the gas burner and the water. The sediment slows the transfer of heat into the water and overheats the tank bottom. The certified inspector will look for these main issues with your water heater:
- Inspect the tank for accumulated sediment- Sediment can decrease efficiency and can clog water lines.
- Check the condition of the anode rod- The anode rod protects your water heater tank and other components from rusting.
- Check for proper flame and gas venting- Dangerous carbon monoxide can build up in your home, making your family ill.
- Check the pressure relief valves operation- Over pressurized tanks an rupture or explode.
- Check thermostat- Thermostats are important for the energy efficiency and they protect your family from danger of scalding water.
Our water heater inspection will be a sub-component of our plumbing inspection.
Give your family the peace of mind and ensure your water heater is working efficiently.
