Gelinas HVAC: Your Source for Plumbing, HVAC, and Electrical Services
On mineral-heavy Scarborough well water, sediment accumulates rapidly on water heater tank bottoms, while sacrificial anode rods deplete faster than standard municipal schedules anticipate. An un-flushed water heater accumulates inches of mineral scale that reduces hot water capacity and accelerates tank corrosion. Gelinas HVAC Services has maintained traditional water heaters since 1994, holding active Maine plumbing licenses, full insurance, and an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. Call (207) 672-2801 to schedule annual water heater maintenance.
