FAQs
What are the main benefits of switching to a tankless water heater?
Tankless (on-demand) units heat water only when you open a tap, eliminating standby heat loss from a storage tank. Homeowners in Oliver Springs typically see energy-cost reductions of 20-40 %, an endless supply of hot water, and space savings because the unit mounts on a wall. Tankless heaters also last 18-20 years—almost twice as long as a standard tank—so you’ll get more value from your investment.
How can I tell if a tankless system is the right choice for my Oliver Springs home?
The best candidates have natural gas or propane service, moderate to high hot-water demand, and adequate electrical and venting options. During your free Peace of Mind Plumbing consultation, we calculate simultaneous fixture use (showers, dishwasher, laundry, etc.) and evaluate gas line size, electrical capacity, and vent run. If a tankless unit won’t meet your needs or budget, we’ll recommend a high-efficiency conventional heater instead.
What size (GPM) tankless water heater do I need?
Tankless models are sized by flow rate in gallons per minute (GPM). We add up the peak demand of fixtures you expect to use at the same time (for example, a shower at 2.5 GPM + washing machine at 2.0 GPM = 4.5 GPM). Then we factor in winter groundwater temperature in Oliver Springs—around 52 °F—to ensure the unit can raise incoming water to 120 °F at that flow. Most families need 6–10 GPM units; larger homes with multiple bathrooms may require a cascading setup of two heaters.
What does installation involve and how long will it take?
A typical retrofit takes one working day. Our licensed technicians will: 1) turn off water, gas, and power; 2) drain and remove the old tank; 3) mount the new unit to code-approved framing; 4) upsize gas lines if necessary for higher BTU demand; 5) install stainless-steel or PVC venting through an exterior wall or roof; 6) connect water lines with isolation valves and a flush kit; 7) add a condensate drain (for high-efficiency models); and 8) commission the heater and show you how to use it. All work is permitted and inspected per Anderson County and City of Oliver Springs codes.
Are there energy rebates or tax incentives available?
Yes. Tennessee homeowners can claim a 30 % federal tax credit (up to $600) on ENERGY STAR–certified gas tankless units through 2032. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) periodically offers $200–$500 rebates for qualifying high-efficiency upgrades, and some local natural-gas providers give bill credits for fuel-line upsizing. We’ll prepare all documentation and submit rebate forms on your behalf so you don’t leave money on the table.
What maintenance does a tankless water heater require, and can Peace of Mind Plumbing handle it?
Annual maintenance keeps your warranty valid and extends lifespan. Service includes flushing the heat exchanger with a vinegar solution to remove scale, cleaning the inlet filter, inspecting the burner, and verifying gas pressure and vent integrity. Oliver Springs’ moderately hard water (about 6 grains per gallon) makes descaling especially important. Peace of Mind Plumbing offers affordable maintenance plans starting at $99 per year, and we track your service history so you never have to remember when it’s due.
