For Traditional Tank Water Heaters:
-
Complete Tank Flush & Sediment Removal
Over time, minerals like calcium and magnesium settle at the bottom of your tank, reducing efficiency and causing rumbling sounds. We flush out sediment to keep your heater working efficiently. -
Anode Rod Inspection & Replacement
The anode rod helps prevent tank corrosion. We inspect it and recommend replacement if it’s worn, a simple fix that can extend your tank’s life. -
Temperature & Pressure Relief Valve Check
Safety is key. We test your T&P valve to ensure it’s functioning properly, preventing dangerous pressure buildup. -
Thermostat Testing & Adjustment
We check the thermostat for accuracy, adjust temperature settings, and make sure your heater operates within safe and efficient parameters. -
Visual Inspection of Tank & Connections
We look for signs of rust, leaks, or wear on pipes, fittings, and the tank itself.
Common Signs Your Water Heater Needs Maintenance
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to give us a call:
-
Water isn’t getting hot enough
-
Strange noises like popping or rumbling
-
Rusty or discolored water
-
The water heater takes longer to heat up
-
Pilot light keeps going out (gas units)
-
Higher than usual energy bills
Why Does Water Heater Maintenance Matter?
Ignoring water heater maintenance is a gamble that often leads to unexpected cold showers, high energy bills, or even water damage. Here’s why homeowners in Indio trust us for regular water heater service:
-
Prolong Equipment Lifespan: Routine maintenance reduces wear and tear, helping your unit last longer, often several years beyond its average lifespan.
-
Boost Efficiency & Save Energy: Sediment buildup makes your heater work harder. Flushing the tank and inspecting parts improves efficiency and cuts down on energy costs.
-
Prevent Emergency Breakdowns: Regular checks catch minor issues before they turn into expensive repairs or total system failure.
-
Protect Your Warranty: Many manufacturers require documented maintenance to keep warranties valid.
-
Ensure Safe Operation: Gas and electric water heaters can pose risks if neglected. Maintenance ensures all components are operating safely.
How Often Should You Schedule Water Heater Maintenance?
We recommend annual maintenance for most water heaters in the Indio area.
However, you may need more frequent service if:
-
You have hard water (common in Coachella Valley)
-
Your household uses a high volume of hot water
-
You notice signs of inefficiency or unusual noises

What Our Clients Say
Testimonials
Absolutely unbelievable response at midnight to repair A/C! Technician was prompt, courteous and returned with necessary part to ensure I wasn't facing interior heat of 90 degrees plus during the night...as a senior, I so appreciated this concern. Very affordable given service was done during off-hours on Labor Day weekend.....this is a great team.
I had a fantastic experience with Sunny Air Conditioning. Edwin, the technician, was exceptional! He arrived on time, was extremely professional, and did a thorough job servicing our air conditioning units. He went above and beyond by increasing the temperature on the upstairs thermostat to ensure optimal comfort throughout our home. Edwin's attention to detail and friendly demeanor made the entire process smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend Sunny Air Conditioning for their excellent service and knowledgeable staff.
Thank you, Edwin, for your outstanding work!

SUNNY AIR CONDITIONING IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!!! My AC went out on a Saturday night and I called several AC companies the next morning and SUNNY AC was the only company I could get out to my house on a Sunday. The owner of the company arrived at my house before 2 pm and he had my AC fixed within an hour. I can’t say enough positive things about my also great!! Steve was easy to talk to and he explained everything very clearly. He was very conscientious and willing to take the time to diagnose the problem correctly
