Tankless Water Heaters

On‑demand units free up floor space and stop paying to keep a tank hot, but they only stay efficient if they are sized to the real fixture count and descaled on schedule. We install, repair and flush them.

  • Installation and gas-tank replacement
  • Repair: ignition, flow sensors, error codes
  • Descaling flush on Bay Area hard water
  • Venting, gas line and condensate work

Tank & Heat Pump Water Heaters

A standard tank is still the fastest like‑for‑like replacement, and a heat pump water heater is usually the cheapest to run. We quote both so the choice is about the house, not about what is on the truck.

  • Same-day tank replacement
  • Gas to heat pump conversions
  • Expansion tank and seismic strapping

Frequently Asked Questions

Standard tank installation starts from $2,200. Heat pump water heaters start from $5,500. Ductless high‑efficiency combi boiler & water heater systems start from $7,000. Exact cost depends on the unit and any electrical or venting work required.

Heat pump water heaters use significantly less electricity to produce the same hot water and frequently qualify for California rebates, which can offset a meaningful portion of the higher upfront cost. We can walk through the real payback period for your household.

It's a single high‑efficiency unit that provides both space heating and domestic hot water, avoiding the need for a separate furnace and water heater. It's a strong fit for smaller Bay Area homes and condos with limited mechanical space.

A standard tank swap is typically done same‑day. Heat pump or combi systems, which may need electrical or venting work, usually take a full day to a day and a half.

Yes — shut off the water supply to the unit and the power/gas if it's safe to do so, then call us. A leaking tank usually means the tank itself has failed and needs replacement rather than repair.

Yes, programs exist at the state and utility level and change periodically. We're TECH Clean California certified for single‑family heat pump water heater installs and can point you to current program details during your estimate.
