The Tankless Water Heater

Since a tankless water heater doesn't heat up the water directly, it takes up much less space than a water heater with a tank.

The tankless water heater works by heating up cold water. When you turn on the hot water in your home, cold water is transferred to the water heater where it is heated by an electric element.

I really appreciated Manolos attitude and the way he had patience for all of my questions and never seemed like he was rushing or annoyed with me. He took the time to reexplain it to my husband when he got home. I didn't feel pressured into spending more money or like he was trying to just sell me stuff. I felt like he really took his time and that I was his priority. Thank you for having great service.

First plumber we called wanted $3500.00 to replace everything. Emanuel came out and suggested we change one part and less than $300.00 later we was up and running again. From Mark, to Taylor, and then on to Emanuel the whole experience was professional and I will be a customer for life. Hopefully not often though. Great working with you guys!.
