Why homeowners switch to tankless

A tankless water heater heats water as it flows, so you get hot water on demand that doesn't run out, from a compact unit that hangs on the wall and lasts longer than a tank.

Instead of keeping a big tank of water hot around the clock, a tankless unit fires up when you open a hot tap and shuts off when you close it. That's why the U.S. Department of Energy notes that it avoids the standby heat loss of a storage tank.

  • Hot water that keeps coming.

    A tankless unit heats water as it flows, only when you open a tap. Back-to-back showers, a full bathtub and the dishwasher, with no tank to wait on.

  • Space back.

    The compact unit mounts on the wall and frees up the floor space a big storage tank used to fill.

  • Built to last longer.

    Most tankless water heaters have a life expectancy of more than 20 years, compared with 10 to 15 for a storage tank, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

  • More energy efficient.

    With no tank of water to keep hot all day, a tankless unit avoids the standby heat loss of a storage tank. The Department of Energy rates demand water heaters as more efficient than storage tanks.

  • Venting. We plan the vent route for the new unit, inside or through an outside wall.
  • Your water use. How many showers, fixtures and appliances may run at once, so we size the unit to keep up with your household.
  • Where it hangs. The best spot on the wall, and the path for water, gas and venting.

Simple care for Utah's hard water

A tankless unit runs at its best with a routine descaling. Utah's water is hard, so minerals slowly collect inside the unit, and a quick flush clears them out. We can take care of it for you.

Many homeowners pair tankless with a water softener or filtration system for extra protection, and we install and service those too.

Why choose a tankless water heater?

A tankless water heater heats water only when you need it, so hot water keeps coming instead of running out with a tank. The unit is compact and mounts on the wall, which frees up floor space. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, most tankless units last more than 20 years, compared with 10 to 15 for a storage tank, and they avoid the standby heat loss of keeping a tank hot.

How long does a tankless water heater last?

Most tankless water heaters have a life expectancy of more than 20 years, compared with 10 to 15 years for a storage tank, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Routine descaling helps a tankless unit keep running well in Utah's hard water.

Can I switch from a tank to a tankless water heater?

What affects the cost of a tankless water heater?

The biggest factors are whether it's a new install or a conversion from a tank, whether the gas line needs upsizing, venting, the size of the unit and where it's mounted. We give you an upfront price before any work starts, with no hidden fees.

How do you take care of a tankless water heater with hard water?

With a routine descaling. Utah's water is hard, so minerals slowly collect inside the unit, and flushing them out keeps it running at its best. We can take care of descaling for you, and we also install water softeners and filtration if you'd like extra protection.
