Tankless Water Heater Inspection

We highly recommend preventative maintenance and an annual inspection to ensure that your home’s tankless water heater continues providing the hot water you and your family rely on for years to come. Benefits of Routine Maintenance:

  • Increase efficiency, reduce energy loss
  • Avoid unexpected breakdowns
  • Ensure safety for you and your family

We’re invested in the health and longevity of your home comfort systems. Let us provide the necessary improvements each and every year.

Hand It Off to Althoff.

*Every manufacturer of tankless water heaters recommends regular cleaning and flushing. Due to the hard water in our area, if left unattended the heater will develop lime and mineral deposits on the narrow passageways of the heat exchanger. If the heat exchanger is not properly de-scaled, those passageways can become blocked and not allow enough water to pass through.

Damage and/or leaks to the heat exchanger related to buildup are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

  • Connect the hoses to service valve kit and flush thoroughly with the descaler for at least 45 minutes to clean the water side of the heat exchanger**
  • Clean combustion air intake screen
  • Clean spark igniter and flame sensor
  • Visually inspect burners
  • Remove and clean condensate trap
  • Visually inspect all internal water piping connections
  • Verify safe water temperature settings
  • Inspect relief valve for weeping
  • After descaling system with treatment, flush system with fresh water and verify for proper operation and leaks

**Must have service valve kit installed

Edwin Beltran was outstanding! Very knowledgeable, professional, cheerful, patient, welcomed questions and provided very easy-to-understand, thorough responses. Completed the repair work very quickly but certainly did not rush. I will request him for all future needs. You're in great hands with Edwin! - David Efken, Algonquin, IL

We are so pleased with the work Victor and Braden did-- professional, friendly, fast, and with great explanations. We could not be happier with their work, as we always are with your company's work. The Daikin unit is working perfectly, keeping our open concept kitchen, family room, music room, and dining room a uniform, warm temperature. THANKS!!!
