FAQs
Why should I hire a certified plumber to install a tankless water heater in Ten Mile?
Tankless systems require precise gas line sizing, venting, electrical connections, and water-quality considerations. A certified plumber is trained to size the unit for your home’s flow rate, perform load calculations, pull any required local permits in Ten Mile, and follow manufacturer specifications so your new heater qualifies for its factory warranty. Improper installation by an uncertified person can void warranties, cause carbon-monoxide hazards, or lead to expensive code violations.
What are the main advantages of switching from a traditional tank to a tankless water heater?
Tankless heaters produce hot water on demand, eliminating standby heat loss and lowering energy bills by 20–40 %. They are wall-mounted, freeing up floor space, and can last 20+ years—nearly twice as long as storage tanks. Because water is not stored, there is less risk of leaks and tank corrosion. Many models also qualify for federal or local energy-efficiency rebates available to Ten Mile homeowners.
How do I know what size (GPM) tankless water heater I need for my Ten Mile home?
Sizing is based on simultaneous hot-water demand and incoming ground-water temperature. Your certified plumber will calculate total flow rate (gallons per minute) for fixtures likely to run at once—e.g., two showers and a washing machine—and factor in Ten Mile’s average winter inlet temperature of about 50 °F. A professional sizing ensures you never run out of hot water and prevents overspending on an oversized unit.
Will my existing gas or electrical service support a tankless system?
Gas tankless models often require a ¾-inch gas line and up to 199,000 BTU input, while electric units may need one or more 240-V, 40–60 amp circuits. During a site visit, our certified plumber measures gas pressure, pipe diameter, and panel capacity to determine whether upgrades are needed. If service changes are required, we coordinate with the local utility serving Ten Mile and include all costs in your estimate.
How long does installation take, and will I be without hot water during the process?
Most residential replacements are completed in one day. We shut off your existing tank, disconnect utilities, mount and plumb the new unit, run venting, and commission the system. Hot water is typically unavailable for 4–6 hours, and we schedule the work at your convenience to minimize disruption. For new-construction projects, installation usually occurs over two visits—rough-in and final hookup.
What maintenance does a tankless water heater require after installation?
To maintain peak efficiency and protect the heat exchanger, manufacturers recommend annual or bi-annual descaling, especially in Ten Mile’s moderately hard water (6–8 grains per gallon). Your certified plumber will flush the unit with a vinegar solution, clean the inlet filter, and perform diagnostic checks. Regular service helps prevent error codes, maintains warranty coverage, and extends equipment life well beyond the 20-year mark.
