Tips & Tricks
One of our board members recently had her hot water tank replaced. The very nice plumber gave her some pointers to extend the life of her tank:
- Keep the temperature setting to hot, but not to the highest setting. This can reduce the life of the tank.
- Every six months or so, attach a hose to the spout at the bottom of the tank and open the drain. Put something heavy on the hose before opening the spout. Open the spout for 10 - 15 seconds. This cleans out the sediment at the bottom of the tank and helps it run more efficiently.
