Tankless Water Heater Services Near Gainesville, VA

Although traditional water heaters work pretty well, the available hot water supply is limited by the size of the tank, and plenty of energy is wasted due to standby losses, keeping the water warm until you are ready to use it. If you would like virtually unlimited hot water in your Gainesville home, along with lower utility costs, consider a tankless water heater. By heating water on demand, tankless water heaters use less energy and never run out of hot water if they are appropriately sized for your needs.

Is It Time To Repair or Replace Your Tankless Water Heater?

When your tankless water heater seems to have a significant problem, it may be worth considering your options. If it is close to its 25-year life span, a costly part like the heat exchanger has failed, or it needs frequent repairs to stay functioning, it may be time to consider a tankless water heater replacement.

Repairs will be far more cost-effective if your tankless water heater is less than 20 years old and has only minor problems like a faulty thermostat or a dead heating element. At C.B. Lucas, we can inspect your water heater and give you honest, reliable advice about your options.

Is a Tankless Water Heater Right for You?

Tankless water heaters can be a great upgrade for many homes, but not necessarily all. If you have a large family or high hot water demands, you may need multiple tankless water heaters or a large tank-based model to meet your needs. With a sizeable standard water heater, between the large tank and the fast recharge rates, it can often fill the needs of a large family more cost-effectively.

Also, if your home has an older electrical or gas system, it may need costly upgrades to meet the instantaneous energy requirements of a tankless water heater, and a tank-based model may be a better option. A tankless water heater can have significant efficiency and performance benefits in most cases.

Tankless Water Heater FAQs

How often should I service my tankless water heater?

For most tankless water heaters, annual service is recommended, which will typically include tasks like flushing the heat exchanger, inspecting the electrical system, testing the thermostat, cleaning the burners, or checking the heating elements. Routine maintenance is essential to the performance of tankless water heaters, and it can help prevent many common problems and premature failures.

Do tankless water heaters provide instant hot water?

No, it will take a few moments from turning your water on until the hot water arrives due to the time it takes to heat it. If you want faster hot water delivery, consider installing a recirculation system or point-of-use tankless water heaters.
