FAQs
What advantages does a tankless water heater offer over a traditional tank in Mulberry?
Tankless units heat water on demand, eliminating standby heat loss, so homeowners in Mulberry can cut water-heating energy use by 25–40 %. Because there’s no storage tank, you gain space, reduce the risk of tank leaks, and enjoy an endless supply of hot water. Modern models also qualify for federal tax credits and local utility rebates, further lowering the net cost of ownership.
How long does a typical Efficient Installations Plumbing tankless installation take?
Most residential replacements are completed in one day. Our crew first turns off the water, gas, and power, then removes the old tank, upgrades the venting or wiring if required, secures the new tankless unit, and performs pressure, gas-leak, and combustion tests. If your home needs a larger gas line or new electrical circuit, installation can extend to a second day, but we’ll let you know at the estimate stage.
Will my existing gas or electrical service handle a tankless water heater?
Gas tankless models often need a ¾-inch gas line and up to 199,000 BTU/h, while electric versions may demand up to 150 A. During our free on-site assessment we measure supply pressures and panel capacity. If upgrades are necessary, we coordinate licensed electricians or gas fitters so everything meets Florida Building Code and manufacturer warranty requirements.
What size tankless water heater do I need?
Sizing is based on simultaneous hot-water demand rather than tank volume. We total the Gallons-per-Minute (GPM) flow of fixtures you might use at once—shower (2 GPM) + dishwasher (1.5 GPM) + sink (1 GPM) equals 4.5 GPM. Then we factor in Mulberry’s incoming water temperature (around 72 °F) to select a unit that can raise water 38–45 °F at that flow rate. Most families choose a 7–9 GPM gas model, while smaller homes or point-of-use needs may suit a 3–5 GPM electric unit.
How much can I expect to save on utility bills by going tankless?
Savings vary with usage habits and fuel costs, but Mulberry homeowners typically see a 20–50 % reduction in water-heating energy. For a household spending $400 a year on gas for a storage heater, that’s $80–$200 saved annually. Electric users see similar percentages. Because tankless units last 20+ years—roughly double a tank’s life—the long-term return can exceed the initial price difference.
What routine maintenance does a tankless water heater require?
To keep efficiency high and protect the heat exchanger, we recommend an annual service. Our technicians flush the unit with food-grade descaling solution, inspect the combustion chamber, clean the inlet filter, and verify venting. In Mulberry ’s moderately hard water (about 140 ppm), flushing prevents mineral buildup that could otherwise shorten lifespan or void the warranty. The visit takes about an hour and keeps your system operating at peak performance.
