We often get asked about how and when you should be performing maintenance<\/a> on your tankless water heater<\/a>. The simple answer is that the manufacturer recommends it be done annually. Performing simple maintenance<\/a> will extend the life of your water heater and\u00a0prevent future problems. The main thing, as most people know by now, is the “flush” or “descaling” of the unit. To maintain good flow and efficiency through these units you must have them descaled, with a manufacturer approved solution.
