1. Regular Inspections:

• Tip: Schedule routine inspections to catch any potential issues early on.

2. Keep it Clean:

• Tip: Regularly clean the heater's components and surrounding area.

• Why it Matters: Debris and dirt can accumulate on the burners and other parts, affecting the heater's efficiency. Gently clean the exterior, remove debris, and ensure proper ventilation to maintain optimal performance.

3. Monitor Water Chemistry:
