Tankless Water Heater Installation And Repairs
Tankless Water Heaters: Calgary Airdrie & Area
Saving energy and money are usually among the top motivators for individuals who choose to make the switch to a tankless water heater. Praised for their energy efficiency, tankless water heaters are also known as instantaneous or on-demand water heaters.
Tankless water heaters are unique because they heat water directly without using any kind of storage tank. This means when a hot water tap is turned on, cold water travels into the unit through a pipe. The water is then heated by using either an electric mechanism or a gas burner. Consequently, a tankless water heater is able to deliver a constant supply of hot water immediately.

Benefits Of Upgrading To A Tankless Water Heater
- LIMITLESS HOT WATER: The most appealing feature of a tankless hot water heater is that it never runs out of hot water. Tankless water heaters are not limited by the capacity of a tank like traditional units, but rather heats water on demand, as needed.
- LONGER LIFESPAN: Tankless systems do not have to hold water constantly helping them extend their life significantly, because their contact with actual water is limited. Traditional units have a tendency to rust and leak because water is consistently held within a tank.
- SMALLER SIZE: A tankless water heater is so small it can be installed on a wall. This makes them perfect for small homes, mobile homes, or any other situation that has people feeling pressed for space. They can go in cabinets, crawl spaces, or on walls.
- CLEANER WATER: Tankless systems avoid using water that has been stored in a tank with accumulated rust and scale.
- SAFETY FEATURES: Tankless models can be equipped with safety features to prevent scalding hot water from reaching your taps.
- ENERGY SAVINGS: Unlike conventional tanks, that consistently heat water throughout the day regardless if you are using it or not, tankless units only heat water when you need it helping you save on your energy bill.
Signs That You May Need Water Heater Repairs Or Replacement
Common Tankless Water Heater Issues:
- High Energy Costs: Increases in a utility bill can be the result of a faulty hot water heater.
- Water Leaks: A water leak is a common precursor to a water heater emergency. They generally start small, around valves at the top of your unit or at the base, and in no time at all they can leak out gallons of water, resulting in water damage and in some instances even mold growth.
- Little To No Hot Water: If you find you are consistently running out of hot water without an increase in consumption there may be an issue with the temperature controls inside your unit.
- Low Water Pressure: While low water pressure in indicative to several plumbing issues, like clogged pipes, if low water pressure only happens when you attempt to use hot water then more than likely your water heater may be the source of the problem.
