Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters
Rather than storing hot water in a large tank and maintaining its temperature, tankless water heating systems heat water on demand. When you turn on a hot water faucet with a tankless water heater, cold water moves through a heat exchanger. You never have to wait for the hot water to fill up, as it’s heated immediately as long as the faucet is on.
Tankless water heaters are up to 34% more efficient than storage tank water heaters in most homes, and they save money on energy bills by eliminating heat that radiates off a tank.
Common Issues With Tankless Water Heaters
One reason homeowners choose tankless water heaters is their reliability. These systems typically last up to 20 years or even longer with proper maintenance — significantly longer than their tank-style counterparts.
However, some common issues require repair:
- Mineral buildup
- Ignition failure
- Flame failure
- System overload
- Air supply or exhaust blockage
- Cold water sandwich
If any of these problems affect your water heater or it isn’t working correctly, call F.H. Furr to diagnose and fix the problem.

Replacing vs. Repairing Your Tankless Water Heater
At some point in the life of any water heater, it becomes more practical to replace the system rather than repair it. Here are some signs it’s time for a tankless water heater replacement:
- The unit is at or past the 15-year mark.
- The unit has lost significant efficiency.
- You’re calling for repairs more frequently.
F.H. Furr can help you select the right system for your home and install it with care.
