FAQs
Why should I choose a tankless water heater over a traditional storage tank in Huntland?
Tankless units heat water on demand, so you eliminate standby heat loss from a storage tank. For most Huntland households, that can translate to 25–40 % lower energy bills. They also take up less space, last roughly twice as long (20+ years with proper maintenance), and provide an endless supply of hot water as long as the incoming water and gas/electric supply keep up.
How much hot water can a tankless unit deliver for my family?
Capacity is measured in gallons per minute (GPM). In Huntland’s moderate climate, a typical whole-home gas unit produces 6–9 GPM—enough for two showers and a dishwasher running at once. We size each system based on the number of fixtures, peak-use habits, and the local groundwater temperature (about 60 °F in Huntland) to ensure you never run out.
What is the installation process like and how long does it take?
Most retrofits in Huntland are completed in one day. We 1) perform a site evaluation and load calculation, 2) disconnect and haul away the old tank, 3) upgrade gas and venting or electrical service if needed, 4) mount the compact tankless unit, and 5) test for leaks and proper flow. Final permits and inspections are handled by our licensed, bonded plumbers so you stay code-compliant with Franklin County regulations.
Will I need to upgrade my gas line or electrical panel?
Possibly. High-efficiency gas models require ¾-inch gas supply and Category III or IV venting; electric models need a 120–200 A service with 40–60 A breakers per heating module. During our free assessment we’ll measure your existing capacity and give you a fixed quote for any upgrades, so there are no surprises on installation day.
How much maintenance does a tankless water heater require?
Annual flushing with a vinegar or citric-acid solution prevents mineral buildup from Huntland’s moderately hard water (7–9 grains per gallon). The process takes about 45 minutes and can be a DIY project or added to our low-cost service plan. We also inspect the burner or heating elements, clean the inlet filter, and check error codes to keep your 12-year manufacturer warranty valid.
What rebates or financing options are available in Huntland?
Qualifying ENERGY STAR® tankless units may earn up to a $300 federal tax credit. Middle Tennessee Electric and local natural-gas utilities occasionally offer $100–$250 incentives. We partner with financing providers for 0 % APR plans up to 18 months or low-interest loans up to 60 months, making high-efficiency comfort more affordable for Huntland homeowners.
