FAQs
What are the main advantages of installing a tankless water heater in my Loudon home?
Tankless (on-demand) water heaters provide endless hot water, occupy far less space than storage-tank models, and can reduce energy bills by 20-40 % because they heat water only when you turn on a fixture. They also boast a longer service life—typically 20+ years—making them a smart long-term investment for Loudon homeowners seeking efficiency and comfort.
How do I know what size (flow rate) tankless unit I need?
Sizing is based on the combined gallons-per-minute (GPM) demand of the fixtures you expect to run simultaneously and the required temperature rise (difference between incoming groundwater temperature and your desired hot-water set point). In Loudon, groundwater averages 55-60 °F. If you want 120 °F hot water, you need a 60-65 °F rise. We’ll total the GPM of fixtures—e.g., shower (2.5 GPM) + dishwasher (1.5 GPM) = 4 GPM—and choose a unit that can deliver at least that flow at a 60-65 °F rise, usually 7–9 GPM for an average family.
Will a tankless water heater work in Loudon’s colder winters?
Yes. Modern high-efficiency gas or electric tankless models are engineered to handle incoming water as cold as 35-40 °F. We recommend units with built-in freeze protection and stainless-steel heat exchangers to withstand temperature swings. During our on-site evaluation, we’ll confirm the model you select can achieve your desired flow rate even on the coldest winter mornings.
What is the typical installation cost in the Loudon area?
Costs vary with fuel type, venting requirements, gas line upgrades, and electrical work. For most homes in Loudon, a fully installed gas tankless system ranges from $3,200 to $4,800, while electric units range from $2,500 to $3,600. We provide a free in-home assessment and a fixed quote that includes the unit, labor, permits, venting, water line modifications, and haul-away of your old tank.
How much maintenance does a tankless water heater require?
Minimal but important. Loudon’s moderately hard water (≈8–10 grains per gallon) can cause scale build-up, so we recommend an annual descaling and flush to keep efficiency high and maintain warranty coverage. We offer affordable maintenance plans that include flushing the heat exchanger, cleaning the intake filter, checking venting/combustion settings, and updating firmware on smart models.
Can a tankless water heater be installed in the same spot as my old tank?
Often yes, but it depends on venting clearance, combustion air requirements, and gas or electrical service capacity. Because tankless units are compact, we can frequently mount them on the wall in place of the existing tank, freeing up floor space. During our site visit, we’ll verify vent termination points, assess whether you need a gas line upsized to ¾" or 1", and confirm adequate electrical receptacles for controls or electric heating elements.
