Our Comprehensive Tankless Water Heater Services

We offer a full range of services designed specifically for the unique needs of tankless systems:

Tankless Water Heater Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of your tankless water heater. Over time, mineral deposits (especially in areas with hard water like Abilene) can build up in the heat exchanger, reducing efficiency and potentially causing costly damage. Our professional maintenance service helps prevent these issues. 

What Maintenance Includes:

• System Flushing & Descaling: This is the most critical step, involving flushing the unit with a descaling solution to remove mineral buildup.
• Filter Cleaning: Cleaning or replacing inlet filters to ensure proper water flow.
• Inspection: Checking gas lines, venting, igniters, sensors, and other components for proper operation and wear.
• Pressure and Flow Rate Checks: Ensuring your system is delivering water efficiently.

Why Regular Maintenance is Essential:

• Prevents Costly Repairs: Addressing minor issues before they become major problems.
• Extends Lifespan: Proper care helps your unit last its full potential.
• Maintains Efficiency: Keeps energy consumption low and hot water output consistent.
• Ensures Safety: Verifying proper venting and operation.

We recommend annual maintenance for most tankless water heaters, or more frequently if you have particularly hard water.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tankless Water Heaters

How often should my tankless water heater be serviced?

Most manufacturers recommend professional maintenance, including flushing, at least once a year. If you have very hard water, servicing every 6-9 months may be beneficial. Regular maintenance helps prevent mineral buildup, a common cause of tankless issues.

How much does tankless water heater service cost?

The cost varies depending on the specific service needed (maintenance, a simple repair, or a complex fix), the unit's model, and its accessibility. Routine maintenance flushing is typically a set fee, while repairs depend on the issue. We provide clear estimates before beginning any work.

Can I perform maintenance on my tankless water heater myself?

While some basic tasks like cleaning the exterior or checking error codes might be possible, flushing and descaling the unit correctly requires specific tools, solutions, and knowledge of your unit's isolation valves and procedures. Improper flushing can damage the system. Professional service ensures the job is done thoroughly and safely.

What are the signs my tankless water heater needs repair?

 Look out for no hot water, inconsistent temperature, error codes on the display, strange noises (like clicking, gurgling, or banging), or visible leaks. If you notice any of these, it's time to call for professional help.

How long do tankless water heaters last?

 With proper, regular maintenance, a tankless gas water heater can last 20 years or more, and electric models can last 10-20 years. Skipping maintenance can significantly reduce their lifespan.
