How Can We Help You?
Professional Water Heater Descaling Services in Philadelphia, PA
If your water heater hasn’t been heating up water like it should, you may be due for a descaling service. With ongoing use, water heaters and boilers can naturally develop scaling that slowly but surely coats the heat exchanger and prevents the system from performing optimally. If you have a tankless water heater, it can also develop a scale that gradually eats away at the heating elements, leading to more costly repairs.
Our skilled technicians have many years of descaling experience and understand how to safely remove build-up without causing damage to your system. We strongly recommend having this done by our professionals as these systems have many components and understanding them is vital to a successful descaling. Call us to schedule your descaling to keep your unit running at top-notch for a long lifetime!
Signs That Your Water Heater Needs Descaling
We recommend descaling your unit at least every 2 years to stay on top of hard water and mineral build-up. If you notice any of the following issues, it is likely that your system is due for a cleaning.
- Your water heater is no longer heating water adequately or is taking an unusually long time to produce hot water.
- You run out of hot water more quickly than usual.
- Your unit is making strange noises when in use.
- Your energy bills have increased but your usage has stayed the same.
