Tankless Water Heater Services

Tankless Water Heater Benefits

Installing a tankless hot water heater system offers many advantages over a traditional water heater, including:

Endless hot water: Gas and electric tankless water heaters heat water on demand and provide a never-ending hot water supply.

Longer lifespan: The average tankless water heater can last up to 20 years with proper maintenance. A conventional one lasts only 8 to 12 years.

Energy-efficient: Electric and gas tankless water heaters use less energy than traditional ones and are EPA Energy Star-approved.
Space-saving: Free up valuable room in your home or business with the compact design of a tankless water heater. The typical dimensions are 20” in width, 28” in height, and 10” in depth.

Tankless Hot Water Heaters: Electric or Gas?

There are two main power sources for a tankless hot water heater: electricity and gas. So, the question you might be asking is, “Should I get an electric or gas tankless water heater?” And that’s a great question!

Electric Tankless Hot Water Heaters

Electric tankless water heaters offer a convenient and eco-friendly solution for on-demand hot water. They’re compact and require no venting, making them suitable for various locations. And as their name suggests, they use electricity to heat the water (but often less overall than a conventional water heater, allowing you to save money on your electricity bill).

With precise temperature control and efficient heating elements, electric tankless water heaters are an excellent choice for small to medium-sized households seeking a reliable and energy-efficient hot water solution.

Gas Tankless Hot Water Heaters

Gas tankless water heaters provide a powerful and continuous supply of hot water, making them ideal for larger households and high-demand applications. By utilizing natural gas or propane, these units can deliver higher flow rates and faster heating compared to electric models. However, they need access to a gas line, which might mean putting it in a less-than-ideal spot or needing a plumber run a gas line to wherever you want your tank to be set up. 

With their superior performance and ability to handle multiple hot water demands simultaneously, gas tankless water heaters offer versatility and reliability for homes with heavier hot water usage.

Well-mannered, well-dressed in khakis and his polo shirt with work logo, professional AND pleasant, and completed the job quickly. I could hear him testing his work to ensure that the job was done properly before he left. He even wanted to know if he could do anything else for me, at 11:00 pm on a Saturday night!

Michael was on time for our service appointment. When he arrived, he listened carefully to the history of problems with our tankless hot water heater and assessed the situation. I had a previous bad experience with a plumbing service who did not fix the problem and then refused to come back out to do so without charging an additional $500! Michael and I discussed options and he made a recommendation in line with what I also thought would be best. I appreciated his honesty and knowledge. Robinson's prices for the labor, repair and service call were also less than the previous service I used. I highly recommend Robinson's Plumbing and technician Michael based on my service today.

Tankless Hot Water Heater FAQs

Q: How much do tankless water heaters and installation cost?

A: Most residential tankless water heaters cost between $1,000 to $2,000 in materials. The installation runs anywhere between $2,000 to $4,000, provided that the new water heater is matched to the old system. The installation price will rise, however, if we need to install a gas line, new vent, or make other significant upgrades.

No job is too big for our experienced plumbers—the largest tankless system we installed was a commercial project for $17,000 that involved multiple heaters working together.

Q: Does Robinson’s Plumbing sell water heaters?

A: We only sell water heaters if you use us to install them. We’ll provide expert advice and help you select the right model to meet your needs. We will then install and warranty your new water heater.

Q: Should I opt for a gas or electric tankless water heater?

A: The choice between gas or electric tankless water heaters can affect your energy bill. If you decide to go with gas, keep in mind that if you don’t have a gas line that can supply sufficient BTUs to your new heater, your gas line will need to be upgraded. Electric tankless water heaters have lower heating capacities and are usually only suitable for one fixture group. There are trade offs with each, but we typically only recommend gas water heaters for whole house water heating.
