• The hot water system should work seamlessly, so
  you and your family dont face inconveniences
  while carrying out routine chores, such as
  bathing, washing, etc. For that, you need to take
  good care of your hot water system. Here are the
  five essential hot water system maintenance tips
  to help you accomplish it, ensuring your hot
  water system runs efficiently and extends its
  life.

1. Check Your Hot Water System for Cracks, Leaks
or Damage

• Set a date (e.g. 1st or 2nd) for each month,
  and on that particular date, inspect your water
  heating system from top to bottom for any leaks,
  damage or cracks. All it takes is 5 to 10
  minutes, but it can save you from wasting
  precious water and help you to identify and
  repair minor issues before they turn worse.

2. Switch OFF Your Tank System if Youre Going
Out of Your Home for Long

• If youre going to remain away from your home
  for several days, you need to turn OFF your water
  heating system. Otherwise, your water heating
  system will constantly heat your water even when
  youre not using it. It goes a long way in saving
  your electricity or gas and extends the life of
  your water heating system.

3. Check the Relief Valve

• The relief valve configured to let go extra
  pressure, so it operates properly. Check the
  relief valve at least once every 6-month. For how
  to check the relief valve look inside the
  manual that came with your tank. If you dont
  have or lost it, you can Google your system and
  get the information online.

4. Take Care While Doing Gardening Chores Around
Your System

• If your system installed on a grass area in the
  backyard of your home, then take care when youre
  performing your garden maintenance. For instance,
  a whipper snipper can inflict a lot of damage to
  the pipes feasting your system and forceful bumps
  from the mower can cause dents or cracks. So be
  cautious when youre working in the area.

5. Annual Service Maintenance of Your Hot Water
System By a Professional Plumber in Sydney

• Professional service should be given to your
  water heating system at least once a year. Get in
  touch with your local plumber in Sydney and
  organise your hot water system servicing. A

  issues before they run into severe problems and
  ensure your system is functioning as efficiently
