Whether you're looking to upgrade from a traditional water heater or are installing a tankless system in your new home, our team of licensed professionals will ensure a seamless and code-compliant installation. Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand water heaters, are the perfect choice for those seeking efficiency and convenience without sacrificing performance.
A tankless water heater is a type of water heating system that heats water directly as it flows through the unit, eliminating the need for a bulky storage tank. Unlike traditional water heaters that store and constantly reheat a large volume of water, tankless systems heat water on demand only when you need it, providing an endless supply of hot water while reducing energy consumption.
Here’s how they work:
Tankless water heaters are an excellent option for households looking to cut down on energy costs, maximize space, and enjoy endless hot water whenever they need it.
Switching to a tankless water heater offers several advantages that go beyond just having hot water on demand. Here are some key benefits:
1. Unlimited Hot Water
The most significant benefit of a tankless water heater is that it provides unlimited hot water. With no storage tank to run out, you can take back-to-back showers, run the dishwasher, and do laundry without ever worrying about running out of hot water.
2. Energy Efficiency and Lower Bills
Because tankless water heaters only heat water when it’s needed, they use significantly less energy than traditional water heaters. In fact, tankless systems are up to 30-50% more efficient, which can lead to substantial savings on your monthly energy bills. Over time, this efficiency can result in lower operational costs and a reduced environmental footprint.
3. Longer Lifespan
Tankless water heaters generally last longer than traditional tank heaters. A tankless unit can have a lifespan of 20 years or more with proper maintenance, compared to about 10-15 years for traditional water heaters. This durability makes them a smart long-term investment.
4. Saves Space
Due to their compact design, tankless water heaters take up significantly less space than traditional storage tank heaters. They can be mounted on walls and installed in smaller utility rooms, closets, or even outside in some cases, freeing up valuable floor space in your home.
5. Reduced Risk of Water Damage
Traditional tank water heaters can leak or burst over time, causing water damage to your home. Since tankless water heaters don’t store water, the risk of leaks and water damage is greatly reduced. This makes them a safer choice for homeowners concerned about potential water damage.
6. Rebates and Incentives
Many energy companies and government agencies offer rebates and incentives for installing energy-efficient appliances like tankless water heaters. These incentives can make the initial investment more affordable and further enhance the savings over the life of the system.
Tankless water heaters are a great option for many homeowners, but it’s important to evaluate whether they are the right fit for your specific needs. Here are some situations where a tankless water heater installation might be the best choice:
1. High Hot Water Demand
If you have a large household or high water usage, such as multiple bathrooms or appliances running simultaneously, a tankless water heater might be the solution you need. It ensures a continuous supply of hot water without the limitations of a storage tank.
2. Limited Space
Homes with limited space can benefit from the compact design of a tankless water heater. Because they’re smaller and can be wall-mounted, they can fit into tight spaces where traditional water heaters might not, such as closets or even outdoors.
3. Energy Efficiency Goals
If you’re looking to reduce your energy consumption and lower your utility bills, a tankless water heater is a great option. By heating water only when you need it, you avoid the wasted energy associated with constantly reheating stored water.
4. Home Renovation or New Construction
For homeowners undergoing renovations or building new homes, tankless water heaters are an excellent investment. They provide modern, efficient, and space-saving solutions that align with the needs of today’s energy-conscious homeowners.
At SAV WATER HEATERS, we pride ourselves on offering expert installation services that prioritize quality, safety, and adherence to all local codes. Here’s what you can expect when you choose us for your tankless water heater installation:
1. Assessment and Sizing
Our team will start by evaluating your home’s hot water needs and the existing water heater setup. Correctly sizing the tankless water heater is crucial to ensure it meets your hot water demand. We will help you choose the right model based on your household size, number of bathrooms, and average daily hot water usage.
2. Code-Compliant Installation
We strictly follow local building codes and manufacturer recommendations when installing your tankless water heater. From ensuring proper venting (for gas models) to electrical and plumbing connections, our experienced technicians guarantee a safe, code-compliant installation.
3. Gas and Venting Considerations
For gas-powered tankless water heaters, proper venting is critical for safety and efficiency. We install high-efficiency venting systems and gas lines to ensure your water heater operates safely. If you choose an electric tankless water heater, we verify that your electrical system can support the required load.
4. Testing and Safety Checks
Once the installation is complete, we conduct a thorough testing process to ensure everything is working properly. We check for gas leaks (in the case of gas units), verify that the water temperature is accurate, and ensure that the entire system operates efficiently.
5. Customer Education
We take the time to educate you about your new tankless water heater. Our technicians will show you how to operate the system, explain maintenance needs, and provide tips on maximizing its efficiency. This knowledge will help you get the most out of your investment.
