Keep your electric water heaters running at peak performance with this maintenance checklist. The template guides maintenance personnel through three critical areas: general system inspection, proper tank flushing procedures, and anode rod evaluation, all essential for extending equipment life and preventing unexpected failures.

According to the Air Conditioning, Heating, & Refrigeration Institute (AHRI), electric water heaters now represent over 50% of the water heater market in the US. If you implement this checklist across multiple facilities, you can reduce emergency water heater repairs through consistent preventive maintenance.
