Water Heater Inspection for Bradford White water heaters
Manufacturers tie warranty coverage to periodic inspection and maintenance: Bradford White's manual calls for anode inspection every two years and an annual check by a qualified technician, and tankless manuals make flushing a condition of coverage. An inspection visit performs those items for your exact model and documents them, so the history exists when a warranty question comes up.
The report records what was checked, what was found and what is recommended, with no pressure to buy. Inspection pricing is quoted and confirmed by phone.

Frequently asked questions
Is an inspection the same as maintenance?
An inspection checks and documents; maintenance performs the scheduled work such as flushing, filter cleaning and anode service. Most visits combine both.
Will an inspection keep my warranty valid?
Manufacturers require the periodic inspection and maintenance their manuals specify; the written report is the evidence that it happened.
