A tankless water heater is an efficient and space-saving choice for modern homes, delivering endless hot water while lowering energy costs. But even the best systems need regular maintenance to perform at their best. At Edwards Royal Comfort, we specialize in expert tankless water heater maintenance to keep your system running reliably year-round.

Here’s what every homeowner should know about maintaining their tankless water heater.

Why Tankless Water Heater Maintenance Is Important

Tankless systems are designed to be compact, efficient, and long-lasting—but only if properly cared for. Hard water and mineral buildup can cause serious damage over time if not addressed with routine maintenance.

Benefits of regular maintenance include:

  • Prevents mineral buildup: Hard water minerals can clog your heat exchanger and reduce efficiency.
  • Improves performance: Clean systems deliver consistent water temperature and pressure.
  • Saves money: A well-maintained heater uses less energy and reduces your utility bills.
  • Extends lifespan: Routine service keeps your system running longer and protects your investment.

What Edwards Royal Comfort Includes in Tankless Water Heater Maintenance

Our skilled technicians provide comprehensive, manufacturer-recommended maintenance for all major brands, including:

  • System flushing and descaling to remove mineral buildup
  • Inspecting burners, valves, and heat exchangers
  • Checking for leaks, corrosion, and performance issues
  • Testing water pressure and temperature consistency

We ensure your unit remains efficient, safe, and under warranty.

How Often Should You Service Your Tankless Water Heater?

Regular maintenance is key—especially in areas with hard water. We typically recommend annual service to prevent buildup and ensure your system is ready for heavy use.

Homes with high hot water demand or signs of mineral buildup may need more frequent checkups.

Signs Your Tankless Water Heater Needs Service

Call Edwards Royal Comfort if you notice:

  • Inconsistent or lukewarm water temperatures
  • Reduced hot water pressure
  • Unusual noises from your unit
  • White mineral deposits on faucets or fixtures
  • Error codes or warnings on your system

Addressing these early prevents costly repairs.

Protect Your Tankless Water Heater with Whole-Home Water Filtration

Extend the life of your tankless water heater by installing a whole-home water filtration system.

Minerals like calcium and magnesium cause scale buildup that damages your heater and plumbing. Filtration helps:

  • Reduce mineral deposits inside your water heater
  • Improve overall water quality throughout your home
  • Boost efficiency and reduce maintenance needs
  • Prolong the lifespan of your plumbing system and appliances

We can help with water filtration solutions during your next service call.
