How Are Tankless Water Heaters Different?
You’re no doubt familiar with traditional storage tank water heaters, which use large tanks holding 50 or more gallons of water and are designed to keep it piping hot all the time. Unfortunately, that means you’re spending money on energy to keep the water warm even when you don’t need it.
Tankless units heat water only when it’s needed. When a hot water tap is turned on, cold water travels through a heat exchanger, where it is rapidly heated. You’ll get the hot water you want right away, and you’ll never have to worry about your teenager or someone using up all the water in the tank.
Choosing the Right Tankless Water Heater
Your water heater is one of your Lapel home’s most important appliances, because you and your family need a safe and reliable source of hot water for bathing, cooking, cleaning, and other household needs. That’s why our professional plumbers help you make the right choice:
- Space Considerations. Whether we’re replacing an existing tankless water heater or a traditional tank model, we carefully examine the space to make sure it’s large enough to be easily accessible with sufficient space for maintenance.
- Utility Access. Your new tankless water heater may be powered by electricity or gas, so it’s important to verify there’s access to utility lines.
- Ventilation Needs. Tankless water heaters may need proper ventilation to remove carbon monoxide and other potentially deadly gases from your home.
- Removal. The old water heater needs to be safely and properly removed, with no damage to your home.
Tankless Water Heaters Demand Professional Installation
Lapel-area homeowners appreciate the convenience and reliable operation of tankless water heaters, but they can only do their job when they’ve been installed correctly. When the team from Nardco installs tankless water heaters, we pay close attention to many factors, including:
- Delivery. We know the safest way to bring your new tankless water heater into your home and safely remove the water heater it’s replacing.
- Preparation. Our plumbers will make sure the water heater is properly positioned, apply pipe thread sealant to the threads for a secure and leak-free connection, and verify all connections have been made correctly and are tight.
- Ventilation. Gas-powered tankless water heaters require proper ventilation to release combustion exhaust like carbon monoxide. We’ll install a vent pipe that complies with local building codes, ensuring it removes dangerous gases from your home.
- Testing. We’ll test your new tankless water heater to make sure it’s heating the water and check to see that hot water is reaching your faucets.
- Safety. We’ll also test all safety equipment to give you peace of mind.
- Adjust Temperature. Finally, we’ll make sure your water heater is set to a temperature that meets your family’s needs, uses less energy, and reduces the potential for injuries caused by scalding water.
Tankless Water Heater Maintenance Provides Reliability
Tankless water heaters generally operate without much attention. However, basic maintenance like these steps will improve its reliability and minimize the need for repairs:
- Check for Water & Gas Leaks. Regularly inspect for signs of leakage, especially around connections and valves. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, turn off the gas supply immediately, provide ventilation, and contact the Nardco team for repairs. Have all leaks repaired quickly to prevent damage and ensure the system’s longevity.
- Regular Flushing. Flushing your home’s tankless water heater regularly will remove many of the naturally occurring minerals that have been deposited inside your system.
- Clean Air. Tankless water heaters use filters to keep debris from interfering with air circulation and causing heat exchanger damage. Your filter may need to be cleaned or replaced regularly.
- Check Venting. If your water heater is powered by gas, make sure the venting system is properly removing exhaust gases such as deadly carbon monoxide that could hurt your system’s efficiency and your family’s safety.
- Pressure Relief Valves. These critically important valves should be professionally tested at least annually and replaced when necessary.
