Greetings Thrifty Friends,

After heating and cooling, water heating is typically the
largest energy user in the home because it is necessary for
so many domestic activities. So it pays to keep your water
heater working as efficiently as possible like lowering the
water temperature thermostat by ten degrees and wrapping
the water tank in an insulating blanket. But there is a
simple and very important part of maintenance that many
people ignore or don't even know about.

In the course of normal use, minerals and natural sediment
in your water condense and settle to the bottom of your
water heater. This sediment can seriously impede the ef-
ficiency of your water heater and can eventually cause it
to malfunction, not to mention the fact that the sediment
will eventually start to get into your tap water.

Scroll down to find out what to do about this slowly
creeping problem.

Keep pinchin' those pennies,
Penny

TODAY'S THRIFTY TIP:

Learning how to clean hot water heater sediment is easy:
First turn off the power so you don't risk electrical shock
or burn out your element. Then turn off the cold water
valve to the tank. Attach a garden hose to the tank drain
valve and then drain a few gallons of the hot water in the
tank through the hose. Then close the drain valve and open
the cold water valve and you're ready to use the tank again.
