FAQs

How does a tankless water heater give my Halls home limitless hot water?

Unlike a traditional storage tank that heats 40–80 gallons at a time, a tankless unit uses high-efficiency gas burners or electric elements to heat water only when you open a tap. Cold water flows through a heat exchanger, is warmed instantly, and is delivered continuously for as long as the fixture is running. Because there is no storage tank to empty, you never “run out” of hot water, making showers, laundry, and dishwashing back-to-back a non-issue.

What size tankless water heater do I need?

Sizing is based on two factors: (1) the combined flow rate of the fixtures you may use simultaneously (measured in gallons per minute, or GPM) and (2) the temperature rise between Halls’ incoming water (about 55 °F) and your desired hot-water setting (typically 120 °F). For example, a shower (2.0 GPM) plus a dishwasher (1.5 GPM) equals 3.5 GPM. With a 65 °F temperature rise, you’d need a unit rated for at least 4 GPM at that rise. During our free in-home estimate we’ll count fixtures, calculate peak demand, and recommend an appropriately sized gas or electric model.

What does the installation process involve and how long will it take?

Most residential installations in Halls are completed in one day. We start by turning off water, gas, and electricity, then disconnect and remove the old tank. Next we mount the compact tankless unit—usually on a basement or garage wall—upgrade gas piping or electrical circuits if needed, install new water lines with isolation valves for easy maintenance, and run Category III/IV venting to the outdoors for gas models. Finally we test for leaks, set the temperature, and show you how to use the digital controller. You’ll be back to hot showers by dinner time.

Are tankless heaters really more energy-efficient and how much can I save?

Yes. Because there’s no standby tank keeping 40 gallons hot 24/7, tankless units eliminate standby losses. ENERGY STAR® reports savings of 25–34 % compared with a conventional gas tank. For an average Halls household using 60 gallons of hot water daily, that translates to $80–$120 in annual utility savings. The longer lifespan (20+ years vs. 10–12 for tanks) amplifies the lifetime cost advantage.

What maintenance will my new tankless system need?

Minimal but important. Once a year we recommend a 30-minute flush with white vinegar or a manufacturer-approved descaler to remove mineral buildup from the heat exchanger—especially crucial in Halls where water hardness averages 9–12 grains. Our technicians can perform this service or supply you with a quick-connect flushing kit. During the visit we’ll also clean the inlet screen, inspect the venting, and run a combustion analysis on gas units to keep efficiency and warranty intact.

Are there rebates, tax credits, or financing options for Halls residents?

Yes. Qualifying ENERGY STAR® gas tankless heaters currently earn a 30 % federal tax credit (up to $600) under the Inflation Reduction Act. Knoxville-area utilities such as TVA often offer $150–$300 rebates for high-efficiency upgrades; we’ll handle the paperwork for you. We also provide 0 % APR financing for 12 months or low-interest plans up to 60 months, making it easy to spread out the investment while you start enjoying unlimited hot water right away.
