Hot Water Tank Flushing

Over time, sediment and minerals settle at the bottom of your hot water tank. That buildup makes the tank work harder, slows heating and can shorten its life.

Breath Assured flushes hot water tanks across the HRM and surrounding areas. It’s a quick visit that’s easy to add on to a heat pump, duct or dryer vent cleaning.
