FAQs
How does a tankless water heater give me endless hot showers?
Unlike storage-tank heaters that warm up a limited volume of water and then wait for it to refill, a tankless unit heats water only when a hot-water tap is opened. Powerful gas burners or electric elements raise the water temperature as it flows through a heat exchanger, so you never run out. As long as your home’s gas or electrical supply meets the unit’s demand, you can enjoy continuous hot water for back-to-back showers or soaking tubs without the recovery time typical of tank systems.
Is a tankless water heater a good fit for homes in Harrison?
Most Harrison residences—whether historic downtown houses or newer construction—can accommodate a tankless system. Key factors are: • Fuel type: Natural gas is common in town and works well; propane and electric models are available if you’re off-grid. • Incoming water temperature: Harrison’s ground-water temps are moderate, so units don’t need extreme BTU ratings. • Household demand: We size the heater based on the number of bathrooms and simultaneous fixtures. Our technicians provide a free on-site assessment to confirm venting routes, gas line capacity, and electrical requirements before recommending the right model.
What is involved in the installation process and how long will it take?
A typical residential install in Harrison takes 4–8 hours. Steps include: 1. Shutting off water, gas, and power to your old heater. 2. Draining and removing the storage tank. 3. Mounting the compact tankless unit on an interior or exterior wall. 4. Running new Category III stainless venting (or PVC for condensing models) through the roof or sidewall. 5. Upsizing the gas line or adding a dedicated 240-V circuit if needed. 6. Connecting water, gas/electric, and condensate drains. 7. Flushing and commissioning the unit, then demonstrating controls to you. No hot-water downtime exceeds one day, and we haul away your old tank for recycling.
How much energy and money can I save compared with a traditional tank heater?
Because tankless models avoid standby heat loss, the U.S. DOE estimates savings of 24–34 % for homes that use <41 gallons of hot water daily and 8–14 % for heavier use. In Harrison, where natural-gas rates average about $1.60 per therm, that translates to $80–$150 per year for a typical family, plus longer life expectancy (20+ years vs. 8–12 for a tank). Many units also qualify for federal tax credits up to $600 and local utility rebates, shrinking your payback period to as little as 4–6 years.
Will I need to upgrade my gas line or electrical service?
Possibly. Gas tankless heaters generally require ¾-inch gas piping and 120-V power for the control board and exhaust fan. If your existing gas line is undersized, we can run a new branch from the meter. Electric tankless units draw 80–120 amps, so most Harrison homes with 200-amp service can handle one, but older 100-amp panels may need an upgrade. Our estimator measures line pressure, pipe size, and panel capacity during the visit and includes any necessary upgrades in your written quote.
What maintenance does a tankless water heater need, and do you service units in Harrison?
Annual maintenance keeps efficiency high and protects your warranty. We recommend: • Flushing the heat exchanger with a vinegar solution to remove mineral scale (more often if your home has hard water). • Cleaning the inlet filter and condensate trap. • Inspecting the venting and combustion settings.
