Tankless water heaters provide unlimited hot water on demand, take up far less space than a tank, and last 15-20+ years. Higher upfront cost, much better long-term value for the right home.
Book ServiceA tankless water heater heats water as you use it — no big tank sitting there reheating 50 gallons all day. The right tankless install delivers endless hot water (long showers, multiple bathrooms running, dishwasher running), saves space, and lasts almost twice as long as a tank unit. Sage installs Navien, Rinnai, and Rheem tankless systems, sized correctly for SWFL water conditions and your home's flow demand.
Tank-style can't keep up with your household. Tankless solves this entirely.
Tankless handles concurrent demand much better than a single tank.
Tankless mounts on the wall — frees up significant floor space.
Better time to switch than after a tank failure. Plan the upgrade rather than emergency-replace with another tank.
Tankless with recirculation can deliver hot water nearly instantly at every fixture.
Tankless uses energy only when you call for hot water. Significant savings over years.
We measure flow rate needs, check gas line capacity (for gas tankless) or electrical capacity (for electric), and discuss whether tankless is the right call.
Quote covers the unit, install, any required gas/electrical upgrades, and permit.
Mount the unit, run/upgrade gas or electrical, install isolator valves for service, vent properly, and connect.
Full system test, walkthrough of recirculation settings (if equipped), annual descale schedule, and warranty.
Standard whole-home tankless: $3,500-$6,500 installed. Higher end if gas line or electrical upgrades are needed.
Yes — typically 20-30% on hot water energy costs because there's no standby loss. Payback period is usually 5-7 years.
15-20+ years with annual descaling. Almost double a tank water heater.
Yes — SWFL water is hard, and tankless heat exchangers are sensitive to scale buildup. SageComfort+ Plumb covers descaling as part of the annual visit.
Almost always yes. The space tradeoff is dramatic (wall-mount unit vs. floor-standing tank). Some installs require gas line upgrades — we assess during the quote.
Optional but worth considering — eliminates the 'wait for hot water' problem at distant fixtures. Adds $400-$800 to the install.
