Frequently Asked Questions
Although tankless heaters have been around for almost three decades, not everyone understands how they function. Our office staff and service teams get many questions about tankless systems. To this effect, here are the most common inquiries.
How Long Does A Tankless Water Heater Last?
This depends on various factors, including brand, model, and usage patterns. On average, tankless systems last between 15 and 20 years before replacement. If the heat exchanger is stainless steel, you can expect a longer lifespan. Regular maintenance is another significant factor that can extend the equipment’s lifespan.
What Causes A Tankless Water Heater To Stop Heating Water?
Power supply issues are common troubleshooting items. We always check the electrical panel, circuit, wiring, gas valves, and pilot light mechanisms first. In some cases, mineral scale buildup can interfere with the heating element. Gas heaters have safety mechanisms that interrupt the system when obstructions block the air vents.
How Often Should I Flush My Tankless Water Heater?
Annual flushing is crucial to protect the heating element. Bensalem has very hard water. Mineral deposits are a leading cause of water heater failure. During maintenance, we descale the system to ensure adequate and reliable heating.
Do You Service Both Gas And Electric Tankless Systems?
We train our service team members on all tankless system types, brands, and models. This means we can troubleshoot and repair electric and gas tankless heaters. We stock our service trucks with the tools, parts, and components we need to repair all systems.
