Maintenance
A water heater that's flushed, descaled, and checked on schedule lasts years longer than one that's ignored, and India's hard water makes upkeep essential. Our Maintenance articles show you how to drain and flush a storage tank, descale heating elements furred with scale, inspect and replace a sacrificial anode rod, and set a service routine you can actually keep. We explain the warning signs of a tank on its way out, how mineral buildup steals efficiency and hot water, and the seasonal checks that stop a small problem from becoming a flood. Practical, tool-by-tool guidance to protect the geyser already on your wall and get its full lifespan.
