    FAQs

    How often should a water heater be flushed?

    Many tank water heaters benefit from annual flushing, but the right interval depends on water quality, age, usage, and manufacturer guidance.

    Can flushing fix no hot water?

    Flushing is maintenance, not a guaranteed repair. If you have no hot water, we should diagnose the heater first.
