Tankless Water Heaters in San Jose 

Professional Tankless Water Heater Installation in San Jose

Whether you just aren't getting enough hot water from your current water heater or you just want a more energy-efficient appliance, a tankless water heater could be a good investment for your San Jose home.

By installing a tankless water heater, you'll enjoy plenty of benefits, including:

• SAVE SPACE - Unlike traditional water heaters that often take an entire closet of space, tankless units are much smaller in size, making them easier and more versatile to install in your home.
• SAVE ENERGY - Tankless heaters only use energy as needed, instead of continuously using energy all day to keep a tank of water heated. This helps you save on your monthly utility costs.
• MORE HOT WATER - Without the limits of a tank that can only hold so much hot water at a time, tankless water heaters give you a limitless supply of hot water on demand.
• LONGER LIFESPAN - Tankless water heaters can last around twice as long as conventional water heaters (around 20 years compared to 8 or 12 years), so you won't have to worry about replacement costs for a while!

With a compact tankless water heater, you have access to on-demand hot water as you need it. The system offers access to fast hot water and only uses energy when you need hot water, not all the time like a standard hot water heater.

Tankless Water Heater Maintenance

Tankless water heaters should be flushed every year because of the build-up in the unit that occurs in that year from scaling. Scale buildup occurs in homes with hard water — water high in dissolved minerals such as calcium. The heat energy in the tankless water heater separates the calcium from the water, creating calcium deposits that can accumulate on the heat exchanger. Over time, if no action were taken, that buildup would make heat transfer more difficult, straining the water heater and reducing its lifespan.

If Miracle Plumbing Inc. installs a tankless water heater, any warranties provided will be void if the tankless water heater is not flushed every year by Miracle Plumbing Inc.
