Unlimited Hot Water With Professional Tankless Water Heater Installation

We pull plumbing and gas permits, coordinate with local building officials and gas utility companies (if meter or supply changes are needed), and schedule final inspections. We also arrange any necessary gas line upgrades through licensed gas fitters. You receive a clear timeline and confirmation of installation dates.

• Pull required plumbing and gas permits
• Coordinate with gas utility for meter testing or supply line work
• Schedule building inspections at appropriate phases
• Arrange gas line upgrades if needed
• Verify equipment delivery dates and confirm installation schedule
• Notify homeowner of any preparatory work needed (protecting water lines, clearing installation area)

Installation begins with safe removal of your old tank heater. We drain the tank completely, disconnect gas, water connections, and electrical power, then haul away the old equipment. We protect your home—laying drop cloths, managing debris—and inspect the installation area. For tankless units, we determine the best mounting location: usually on an exterior wall for easier venting, or an interior wall if venting can be routed safely.

• Safely drain old tank heater and dispose of water properly
• Shut off gas supply and verify isolation at meter
• Disconnect electrical power and water connections
• Safely remove old heater and arrange responsible recycling/disposal
• Clean installation area and prepare location for new unit
• Verify mounting location and venting route are clear and accessible

If gas line upgrades are required, licensed gas fitters install proper-sized tubing from the meter to the tankless unit location. All connections are made to code and pressure-tested. If no upgrade is needed, we simply route the existing gas line to the new unit location.

• Install or route properly-sized gas line to tankless unit location
• Pressure-test all gas connections to confirm no leaks
• Install gas shutoff valve at tankless unit
• Verify gas line sizing matches unit demand requirements
• Coordinate with gas utility final inspection if supply work was done

We connect cold water supply line to the tankless unit inlet and hot water outlet to your home’s hot water distribution. We also install a mixing valve (tempering valve) at the unit outlet in some cases—this prevents dangerously high outlet temperatures and improves consistency.

All water connections are made using proper fittings and tested for leaks. We also verify water pressure at the unit—if pressure is too low, the unit may not activate. If water pressure is marginal, we discuss installing a pressure booster pump.

• Connect cold water supply line to tankless unit inlet
• Connect hot water outlet to home’s hot water distribution
• Install tempering/mixing valve if needed for temperature safety
• Pressure-test all water connections to confirm no leaks
• Measure water pressure at unit inlet; verify minimum pressure for reliable operation
• Recommend pressure booster pump if supply pressure is marginal

Tankless units must vent safely outdoors. If we’re installing a direct-vent unit, we route venting pipe through an exterior wall and ensure proper termination (per code, typically 12 inches from windows, doors, or HVAC intakes). If we’re installing a power-vent unit, we run ductwork to the venting location and verify proper electrical power is available.

Proper venting slope (1/4" rise per 1’ horizontal) is critical—incorrect slope allows condensate to pool and venting to backflow. We ensure venting meets code exactly.

• Install venting pipe or ductwork from unit to exterior termination
• Ensure proper venting slope (1/4" rise per 1’ for horizontal runs)
• Verify exterior termination is safe distance from windows/doors/intakes per code
• Seal all venting connections and test for leaks
• Install power vent blower if required (and verify electrical connection)
• Perform draft test to confirm proper venting operation

Tankless units require different electrical work depending on type. Electric-backup tankless units need dedicated electrical circuits. Power-vent units need 120V service for the vent blower. Gas-only units may need minimal electrical (just a safety shutoff solenoid). We install all electrical per code—proper circuit breaker, wire sizing, and grounding.

• Install electrical circuit breaker and disconnect switch per code
• Run properly-sized wire and conduit from electrical panel to unit location
• Verify correct voltage at all connections
• Test electrical continuity and grounding integrity
• Install any required power outlet for vent blower operation

We power up the tankless unit and run it through heating cycles. We verify the ignition system fires reliably, the modulating gas valve responds to demand, water heats to the set temperature, and all safety controls operate correctly. We test temperature consistency—running hot water for several minutes to confirm outlet temperature remains stable.

We also verify the unit displays no error codes and performs at or above design specifications.

• Power up unit and observe startup sequence
• Test ignition: verify spark and flame establishment
• Verify modulating gas valve responds to temperature demand
• Measure outlet water temperature and confirm it matches setpoint
• Test safety controls: flame sensor, thermal cutoffs, pressure switches
• Run hot water through multiple cycles to verify temperature consistency
• Verify no error codes display on unit
• Measure gas pressure and water flow to confirm proper operation

Before we leave, you receive comprehensive training on system operation: How to adjust temperature setpoint on the unit, understanding the display and any indicators or settings, filter maintenance (if equipped with an inlet water filter), descaling schedule based on your water hardness, what to do if the unit stops heating or produces error codes, seasonal operation and efficiency tips.

You receive complete documentation: equipment model and serial number, warranty terms, supporting paperwork for any applicable rebates or incentives, service contact information, and our emergency contact number.

• Explain tankless operation: modulating burner, water flow sensor, temperature control
• Demonstrate temperature adjustment and any user settings
• Show location of water inlet filter (if equipped) and explain replacement frequency
• Discuss descaling schedule based on water hardness testing
• Explain common error codes and troubleshooting steps
• Provide written documentation with all equipment and warranty information
• Leave all manuals and service information in accessible location
• Explain documentation for any applicable rebates or incentives and how to submit
• Provide emergency contact information
