Tankless Water Heater Inspection

*Every manufacturer of tankless water heaters recommends regular cleaning and flushing. Due to the hard water in our area, if left unattended the heater will develop lime and mineral deposits on the narrow passageways of the heat exchanger. If the heat exchanger is not properly de-scaled, those passageways can become blocked and not allow enough water to pass through.

Damage and/or leaks to the heat exchanger related to buildup are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

  • Connect the hoses to service valve kit and flush thoroughly with the descaler for at least 45 minutes to clean the water side of the heat exchanger**
  • Clean combustion air intake screen
  • Clean spark igniter and flame sensor
  • Visually inspect burners
  • Remove and clean condensate trap
  • Visually inspect all internal water piping connections
  • Verify safe water temperature settings
  • Inspect relief valve for weeping
  • After descaling system with treatment, flush system with fresh water and verify for proper operation and leaks

**Must have service valve kit installed
