You may be tempted to turn up the temperature during the chillier months, but this can cause scaling and burning, particularly in children. Flush your water heater: Sediment builds up over time and can settle into the bottom of the tank. This sediment causes a decrease in the efficiency of your system making it work harder. You can prevent this problem by simply flushing your system annually. Flushing your system is a great way to increase its lifetime ensuring you will have to buy a new system less often. You may want to consider hiring a professional to help you with this step. Add insulation: Adding insulation around your water heater can help it maintain its temperature and not have to work as hard. Schedule maintenance: You can check on your anode rod and pressure release valve yourself in order to help maintain your water heater. However, many people prefer to hire professional assistance.
