For tank heaters in Rexford, we drain the unit and rinse the sediment from the bottom; for tankless systems we run a full vinegar descale through the heat exchanger to clear mineral scale.
With the tank drained, we inspect the sacrificial anode rod and replace it if it's eaten down, then check the dip tube, gaskets, and burner or elements for wear.

Answers to the questions homeowners ask most often about water heater maintenance & flush.
A standard maintenance and flush in Rexford is a flat, upfront price that we quote before any work begins, with no hidden trip or disposal fees. The cost depends mainly on whether you have a tank or tankless unit and whether the anode rod needs replacement. Tankless descaling runs a bit more than a basic tank flush because it takes longer, but you always approve the total before we start.
Most Rexford homeowners should flush a tank water heater once a year, and more often if your water is hard or has heavy sediment. Tankless units typically need a descale every twelve to eighteen months depending on water quality. Sticking to that schedule is the single best thing you can do to protect efficiency and extend the heater's life.
A typical tank flush and inspection takes about an hour to ninety minutes from start to finish. A tankless descale runs a little longer, usually ninety minutes to two hours, because the cleaning solution has to circulate through the heat exchanger. We handle most NY maintenance jobs in a single visit with no second trip required.
That sound is sediment that has settled at the bottom of the tank and is trapping water beneath it, causing it to boil and pop as the burner fires. It's a clear sign the tank needs a flush, since the buildup forces the heater to work harder and wastes energy. A maintenance visit clears the sediment and usually quiets the unit right down.

"They sized our new heater correctly for a family of six. The old one was always running out. Now we never run cold even with back to back showers. Great advice."

"I appreciated that they laid out repair versus replace honestly. My old heater was on its last legs so they walked me through both costs and let me decide. No pressure at all."
