FAQs
What are the main benefits of installing a tankless water heater in Jacksboro?
Tankless units heat water on demand, so you never run out of hot water—perfect for families or homes with large soaking tubs. Because they only fire up when a tap opens, they typically cut energy use 20–40 % compared with storage tanks, lowering utility bills in Jacksboro’s year-round warm climate. They also free up floor space, have a life expectancy of 20+ years when maintained, and reduce the risk of leaks that can occur with a traditional tank.
How do I determine the correct size (flow rate and temperature rise) for my household?
Sizing is based on two factors: 1) the total gallons-per-minute (GPM) you expect to use at once and 2) the temperature rise needed to reach your desired hot-water setpoint. Add up the flow rates of simultaneous fixtures—e.g., shower (2.0 GPM) + kitchen sink (1.5 GPM) = 3.5 GPM. Jacksboro’s incoming water is roughly 65 °F in summer and 55 °F in winter; to reach 120 °F you need a 55–65 °F rise. Our technicians will measure your actual flow rates, factor in seasonal groundwater temps, and recommend a unit—usually 7–10 GPM for a three-bath home and 11+ GPM for larger households.
Can a tankless water heater run on my existing gas or electric service?
Most homes in Jacksboro have adequate natural-gas supply, but tankless models demand a higher BTU input (150,000–199,000 BTU). We’ll check your gas meter, supply line size, and venting path; upgrades are sometimes needed. For electric models, you typically need 150–200 amp service and multiple 40-50 amp double-pole breakers. During a free site visit we confirm whether your current utilities can handle the load or outline cost-effective upgrade options.
What is involved in the installation process and how long will it take?
A standard replacement—mounting the new unit, rerouting water lines, and connecting gas/electric and condensate drain—usually takes 6–8 hours. We secure the required Jacksboro permit, handle any venting through an exterior wall or roof, and haul away the old tank. If gas line upsizing or electrical panel work is required, add 2–4 hours. You’ll be without hot water only during the final cut-over, typically less than one hour.
What routine maintenance does a tankless heater require, and do you offer service?
To maintain efficiency and warranty coverage, manufacturers recommend: 1) annual flushing with a vinegar solution to remove mineral scale; 2) cleaning the inlet water filter; and 3) checking the vent and condensate line. Jacksboro’s moderately hard water makes descaling especially important. We offer one-time and annual maintenance plans that include full flushing, gas-pressure checks, safety inspection, and software updates for units with smart controllers.
Are there rebates or tax incentives for installing a tankless water heater in Jacksboro?
Yes. Atmos Energy often offers a $300–$450 rebate for qualifying ENERGY STAR® natural-gas tankless models. Electric co-op members can receive bill credits for high-efficiency units. In addition, the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C) allows you to claim up to 30 % of the equipment and installation cost, capped at $600, on your income taxes. We provide the paperwork and model numbers you need to apply, and we’ll point you toward any limited-time state or manufacturer incentives as well.
