Tankless Water Heater Installation and Repair
Tankless water heater installation involves taking out the traditional water heater tank in your home and replacing it with an electric or gas heating unit that heats the water directly. Tankless water heater installation is also known as an ‘on demand water heater.’ It is named this because when a tap is turned on, only the water needed travels through the heating unit for immediate use. So, if you are not using hot water, there is no energy wasted on heating it. On average, a tankless water heater installation can save up to 35% off of heating costs if installed correctly. If you haven’t ever seen a tankless water heater installation, it may sound a little unbelievable, but a correctly sized heating unit will deliver an endless supply of hot water as it is needed. Our local, San Francisco professional plumbers can help you figure out whether you need a single point application water heater (for a bathroom sink), or a multipoint application (whole house tankless) water heater.How do I get a tankless water heater installed?

Tankless water heater installation may also require a permit and must meet local building code requirements.

What do I look for in A Tankless Water Heater?
Tankless water heater installation requires figuring out exactly where in your house or condo you are going to need hot water. Some people buy an ‘on demand water heater’ for one appliance that they don’t use every day. Others, who may live in a smaller home, like a condo, go for a whole house water heater. At any rate, you need to decide where the water heaters will be placed in your home and how many gallons of water they will heat per day. San Francisco is considered to be in a more temperate zone, so tankless water heater installation makes sense if you want to save money on heating water. This is because the rise in the natural water temperature needed to create hot water isn’t as much as if you lived further north, where water tends to freeze more often in the winter months.
Normally, most people tend to purchase a single Tankless Water Heater for their entire home. However, some people still prefer smaller Electric Tankless Water Heaters for smaller fixtures, like bathroom sinks.
