Complete water heater flush to get rid of all sediment
Anode rod inspection - Anode rod attracts sediment and corrosion inside the water heater. It is designed to corrode and be replaced instead of corroding the inside of the water heater. Broken or missing anode rod will cause corrosion inside the tank and damage to the inner lining of the tank.
Dip tube inspection - Dip tube is an internal pipe that pushes cold water towards the bottom of the tank where the heating element is so that it can heat up. Broken, damaged or clogged dip tube will result in less hot water being available and low hot water pressure.

Manufactured/Mobile Homes
Manufactured homes are typically smaller than traditional site-built houses. This translates to a smaller demand for hot water. Because of this, manufactured homes typically use water heaters with a capacity of 30 to 40 gallons, whereas traditional homes may use 40 gallons or more. Due to space limitations in manufactured homes, water heaters typically come in two main configurations to maximize capacity within the available footprint: Short and Wide: These water heaters have a wider diameter than traditional models but maintain a shorter height. This allows them to fit in compartments that may have limited vertical space. Tall and Slim: These water heaters have a smaller diameter but extend further vertically. This design is ideal for narrow spaces like closets or utility areas. Due to safety regulations, some manufactured homes might be restricted to using electric water heaters only. While gas water heaters are more common in site-built homes, they may not always be approved for installation in manufactured homes. Manufactured home water heaters may also have specific venting requirements. Some may be atmospheric vented, which means they expel exhaust gases through a flue pipe to the outside. Others may be direct vent models that use a fan to expel exhaust gases to the outside through a short pipe on the exterior of the home. To be compliant with federal safety standards, manufactured home water heaters must be HUD-certified. This ensures they meet specific requirements for things like fire safety and pressure relief valves. Federal safety standards also require anyone repairing or servicing manufactured homes hold a Manufactured Housing Specialty Serviceperson License. Water Heater Mafia has a Manufactured Housing Specialty Serviceperson License. This means that our techs possess specific knowledge and expertise required for servicing Manufactured Homes.

Reasons why your appliances need yearly servicing:
Our weather. Because it reaches well below freezing here in Northern Nevada, it is imperative that both your swamp cooler and water heater have been properly winterized. Failure to winterize can cause costly catastrophic damages.
Our water. Living in Northern Nevada, we have naturally hard water. The abundance of minerals can wreak havoc on your home appliances, especially your swamp cooler and water heater. Over time, mineral buildup can damage their internal components, leading to costly repairs or replacements. Having yearly services decreases the build up of scale and increases the efficiency and lifespan.
Efficiency. Swamp coolers and water heaters are designed to last for years. Yearly services keep them running smoothly and prolong the health of the appliances.
