Keep Your Home Water System Running Effectively
Tankless Water Heater Installation
Switching to a tankless water heater involves more than swapping units. Before recommending a system, we assess your household's flow rate, plumbing layout, gas line size or electrical panel capacity, and venting requirements to ensure the unit is properly sized and the installation meets local code. Installation includes removal of the old unit, mounting, connecting gas or electrical supply, configuring venting, and testing before a final walkthrough with the homeowner. Financing is available if needed. If you're weighing whether tankless is right for your home, our guide on whether you should get a tankless water heater is a good starting point.
Tankless Water Heater Repair
Not every problem requires a new unit. Our plumbers inspect your tankless water heater to identify the root cause and present repair options with upfront pricing before work begins. Common issues include error codes, ignition failures, temperature swings, scale buildup in the heat exchanger, faulty flow sensors, control board faults, and active leaks. For leaks specifically, see our guide on how to fix a leaky water heater. When repair is no longer cost-effective, we'll tell you clearly and walk you through tankless water heater replacement options.
Tankless Water Heater Maintenance
Without regular maintenance, mineral scale accumulates inside the heat exchanger and reduces efficiency over time. We recommend annual service for most homes and more frequent visits for hard-water areas. A maintenance visit covers descaling and flushing the heat exchanger, cleaning inlet filters, checking venting, testing temperature settings, and inspecting the burner or igniter. For broader upkeep guidance, see our tankless water heater maintenance tips. Schedule a service appointment with your local bluefrog Plumbing + Drain today.

Signs Your Tankless Water Heater Needs Service
Error codes on the display — Most tankless units display diagnostic codes when something is wrong; these are often the first sign of an ignition issue, flow sensor failure, or overheating
Inconsistent water temperature — Water that fluctuates between hot and cold during a shower often points to a faulty flow sensor, scale buildup, or a problem with the gas supply
Sudden cold bursts mid-shower — A brief burst of cold water followed by hot water can indicate a heat exchanger issue or inadequate unit sizing for simultaneous demand
Reduced hot water flow — Mineral deposits in the heat exchanger restrict flow over time; this often presents as lower-than-normal pressure from hot water fixtures
Unusual clicking or rumbling — Sounds during startup or operation can indicate ignition problems, scale buildup, or venting issues
Discolored or smelly water — Rust-colored or sulfur-smelling hot water may point to internal corrosion or a compromised heat exchanger
Visible mineral deposits around connections — White or chalky buildup around fittings or the unit itself signals scale issues that are likely affecting internal components as well
Why Upgrade to Tankless Hot Water Heaters
Save Money Over the Long-Term
Tankless units are also known as on-demand water heaters. This means they produce hot water only when needed. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, tankless water heaters are up to 34% more energy-efficient than conventional storage-tank water heaters. Book your installation today and get back to your regular household chores without sacrificing a hot shower!
If you want to get the maximum service life out of the next water heater you buy, an electric tankless model is your best option. Tank systems have an average lifespan of 12-15 years, while tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years. Call us now to get your installation scheduled.
Burdened by high energy costs? Upgrade from standard to tankless and save more on your energy bill. Tankless water heaters heat water only when you need it, which eliminates the energy spent keeping a full tank hot around the clock.
Say goodbye to cold showers and hello to on-demand instant hot water throughout the day. This also means you’re not wasting energy by keeping hot water available when you don’t need it.
Because no tank is involved, tankless water heaters take up less space in your home. It’s the perfect solution if your utility area is a bit cramped already.
