Hot Water That’s There Every Time You Need It
A traditional water heater can only store so much hot water. Once the tank is empty, you're stuck waiting for it to refill and reheat, which means cold showers and delayed chores.
A tankless water heater heats water instantly as it flows through the system, so you can take back-to-back showers, run the dishwasher and start a load of laundry without running out.

Why Go Tankless
Benefits of Choosing a Tankless Water Heater
Heard about tankless water heaters but not sure if they're right for your home? Here's why homeowners make the switch.
Endless Hot Water
Water is heated on demand, so you won't run out mid-shower. With a properly sized unit, you can use several hot water sources at once.
Energy Efficiency
Tankless units only heat water when it's needed, instead of keeping a tank hot all day, which can lower your energy bills.
Longer Lifespan
Tank heaters typically last around 8 to 12 years; tankless water heaters can often last 20 years or more with proper maintenance.
Space-Saving Design
Compact units mount on a wall, fit tighter areas or, in some climates, go outside, freeing up valuable space.
Reduced Risk of Water Damage
With no large volume of stored water, the risk of a catastrophic tank leak is much lower.

FAQ
Tankless Water Heater Installation FAQ
Common questions about tankless water heater installation for your home. Tap a question to see the answer, or find your local PlumbingPro to talk through your options.
What are the benefits of tankless water heaters?
Tankless water heaters provide numerous benefits including endless hot water on demand without running out, energy savings of 20 to 30 percent compared to tank heaters since they only heat water when needed, longer lifespan of 15 to 20 years versus 8 to 12 for tanks, compact wall mounted design that saves floor space, reduced risk of water damage from tank leaks, and lower operating costs over time. They are ideal for families with high hot water demand or homes with limited space.
How much does tankless water heater installation cost?
Tankless water heater installation costs depend on the unit size, fuel type, and installation requirements, and pricing varies by location. Gas tankless units generally cost more than electric models. Additional expenses may include gas line upgrades, electrical panel upgrades for electric units, new venting installation, water line modifications, and permits. While the upfront cost is higher than a traditional tank, energy savings and a longer lifespan can provide better long term value. Your local PlumbingPro will give you a quote with all costs outlined before work begins.
What size tankless water heater do I need?
Tankless water heater sizing depends on your peak hot water demand measured in gallons per minute and the temperature rise needed. Calculate how many fixtures you might use simultaneously like showers, dishwashers, and washing machines. Most homes need units rated between 5 to 10 GPM. Larger families or homes with multiple bathrooms may require multiple units or a high capacity model. We assess your household size, simultaneous usage patterns, and incoming water temperature to recommend the properly sized unit.
How long does tankless water heater installation take?
Tankless water heater installation typically takes 4 to 8 hours for a straightforward replacement. More complex installations requiring gas line upgrades, electrical panel modifications, or new venting systems may take a full day or require two visits. Installation includes removing your old water heater, mounting the new tankless unit, connecting water lines, installing proper venting for gas units or electrical connections for electric models, testing the system, and programming settings. Most installations are completed in one day.
Do tankless water heaters require special maintenance?
Yes, tankless water heaters require annual maintenance to maintain efficiency and warranty coverage. Maintenance includes descaling or flushing the heat exchanger to remove mineral buildup especially in areas with hard water, cleaning the inlet filter screen, checking gas connections or electrical elements, inspecting venting systems, testing safety features, and verifying proper operation. Hard water areas may need more frequent descaling every 6 months. Many PlumbingPro locations offer maintenance plans to keep your tankless system running at peak performance.
Can a tankless water heater replace my current tank water heater?
Yes, tankless water heaters can replace traditional tank water heaters in most homes. However, the installation may require upgrades depending on your home's existing infrastructure. Gas tankless units need adequate gas line capacity and proper venting. Electric tankless heaters often require electrical panel upgrades to handle higher amperage demands. We evaluate your current setup, gas or electric capacity, venting options, and space to determine feasibility and any necessary modifications for a successful tankless conversion.
