The Name You Trust for your
TANKLESS WATER HEATERS

What is a tankless water heater and how can you benefit from installing one? How do they compare to standard boiler-type water heaters? Are they a good option for cold climates?

According to the Department of Energy, tankless water heaters can save you money on your electricity bill when compared to water heaters with traditional storage tanks. However, not every location and every building can use a tankless water heater to maximum effect.

Let's compare tankless hot water heaters to more traditional hot water heaters. Where applicable, we'll detail the options that are the best fit for you. Additionally, we will give you a closer look at the Rinnai tankless hot water heater installation process that we use at 1-800-PLUMBER® + Air.

How will our engineers go about installing your tankless water heater? If it's a gas heater, we'll need to mount the unit onto your wall and connect water and gas lines as well as installing a flue to vent any exhaust.

If it's an electric heater, we'll need to mount it and connect it to water and electrical sources.

As far as installation goes, a Rinnai unit comes with the following right out of the box:

• Rinnai Tankless Water Heater

• Wall Mounting Bracket (for internal/indoor water heaters only)

• Pressure Relief Valve and Adapter

• Isolation Valve Kit (for quick isolation of the water heater for service and/or maintenance)
  

Although installation is fairly simple, you need a pro who has the tools and know-how and get all of the lines hooked up properly for safe operation. Gas line hook up especially should be done by a professional due to the potential for gas leaks and other serious issues. It is also imperative that you select a good location to mount the unit as this will have a big effect on how fast hot water gets to where it needs to go.
