Tankless Water Heater Installation
Looking for a different way to supply hot water to your home? A tankless water heater heats water as it is needed instead of storing it in a tank. Falcon Plumbing & Heating provides tankless water heater installation for homeowners considering an upgrade to an on-demand hot water system.
Enjoy On-Demand Hot Water at Home
Traditional water heaters store a supply of heated water, while tankless systems heat water as it flows through the unit. This difference makes tankless equipment an option for homeowners who want to change how their household receives hot water.
Before choosing a system, it’s important to consider your home’s hot water demand, available fuel supply, and installation requirements.
How Does a Tankless Water Heater Work?
A tankless water heater uses a heat exchanger to warm water as it passes through the unit. When a hot water tap or appliance calls for water, the system activates and heats the incoming supply.
Unlike a storage tank, it does not keep a large volume of water heated between uses. However, the system must be properly sized to handle the number of fixtures and appliances using hot water at the same time.
Is a Tankless Water Heater Right for Your Home?
A tankless system can be a good option for some households, but it is important to evaluate its suitability first.
Household Hot Water Demand
The number of showers, faucets, and appliances used simultaneously affects the required system capacity.
Available Fuel Supply
The home’s existing gas or electrical service must be suitable for the selected tankless model.
Installation Location
The unit needs an appropriate location with the required connections, ventilation, and clearances.
Existing Water Heater Setup
Your current equipment and plumbing configuration can influence the installation requirements.
Tankless vs. Traditional Water Heaters
Both systems provide household hot water, but they operate differently.
Traditional Storage Water Heaters
These units keep a supply of hot water in an insulated tank. Once that supply is used, the system needs time to heat more water.
Tankless Water Heaters
These systems heat water as it passes through the unit. They do not rely on a stored tank of hot water, although their flow capacity is limited by the model and household demand.
The right choice depends on your household’s usage, installation conditions, and budget.
What to Consider Before Installation
A successful tankless water heater installation starts with evaluating the home’s existing setup.
Proper System Sizing
The unit should be selected according to the required flow rate and temperature rise.
Plumbing and Fuel Connections
Existing water lines and the available gas or electrical supply need to meet the manufacturer’s requirements.
Venting Requirements
Gas-powered models require suitable venting to safely remove combustion gases.
