Tankless Installation Time

How Long Will A Tankless Take to Install?

This can be a difficult question to answer as there are a number of factors that need to be taken into account.  They range from

• Relocation – Does it make sense to move the tankless closer to hot water demands? does this involve moving the gas lines? Is there a venting issue that requires it moved?
• Size / Mounting – The Tankless is significant smaller then a full sized convential tank, this allows it to be mounted numerous locations.
• Venting – All tankless systems have unique venting requirements this may play a factor in its positioning, get a free evaluation here.
• Type – Do you want a propane, natural gas or electric tankless system? These factors can all play a part in tankless installation times.

The installation crews are scheduled to do 2 tankless installs per day, so most installs rarely go past 4 hours (quite a few have been installed in less than an hour).  If you decide to go ahead with the tankless system, be that rental or purchase its a safe bet to allocate 4 hours for the install.
