Your morning routine just got simpler. No more timing showers around laundry cycles or waiting for the tank to refill. With a professionally installed tankless water heater, you get instant hot water whenever you turn the tap.
The difference is immediate. Multiple family members can shower back-to-back while the dishwasher runs and laundry loads without anyone getting stuck with cold water. Your energy bills drop because you’re only heating water when you actually need it, not maintaining a 40-gallon tank at 120 degrees around the clock.
Space opens up too. These compact units mount on the wall and free up floor space that bulky traditional tanks consume. After 15-20 years of reliable service, you’ll realize this upgrade paid for itself many times over.
We’ve earned the trust of Regency Park homeowners through consistent, professional service and transparent pricing. We understand the unique needs of homes built in the early 2000s throughout this Sacramento community.
Our technicians arrive on time, explain the work clearly, and complete installations to code the first time. We’ve built our reputation on quick response times and fair pricing – qualities that matter when you need reliable hot water for your family.
When you call Murray Plumbing, you’re working with plumbers who know Regency Park’s Mediterranean-style homes, local building requirements, and what it takes to deliver lasting results for busy families.
Your tankless water heater installation starts with an assessment of your home’s existing plumbing and electrical systems. We determine the best location for your new unit, typically mounted on an interior or exterior wall near your main water line.
Next, we remove your old water heater and prepare the installation area. This includes running new gas lines or electrical connections as needed, installing proper venting for gas units, and ensuring all connections meet local building codes.
The final step involves mounting your new tankless unit, connecting all lines, and testing the system thoroughly. We’ll walk you through the controls and maintenance requirements before we leave, ensuring you understand how to get the most from your investment. Most installations are completed in a single day.

Your tankless water heater installation includes proper sizing for your home’s hot water demands, professional-grade mounting hardware, and all necessary plumbing connections. We handle permits and ensure compliance with Sacramento County building codes.
Regency Park homeowners particularly benefit from the space savings these units provide. In homes where every square foot matters, freeing up the utility closet or garage space occupied by a traditional tank creates valuable storage or living area.
The energy efficiency translates to real savings on your utility bills. Sacramento’s climate and local energy costs mean most homeowners see noticeable reductions in their monthly expenses. Combined with available rebates from local utilities, the investment often pays for itself faster than expected in this area.
Installation costs in the Sacramento area typically range from $2,000 to $6,000 depending on whether you choose electric or gas, the unit’s capacity, and your home’s existing infrastructure. Gas systems generally cost more upfront due to venting requirements but offer lower operating costs.
Your final price depends on factors like the distance from your main water line to the installation location, whether electrical panel upgrades are needed, and if new gas lines must be run. We provide detailed estimates that break down equipment, labor, and permit costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Many Regency Park homeowners find the investment worthwhile when they factor in energy savings, available utility rebates, and the 15-20 year lifespan compared to traditional water heaters that typically last only 10-12 years.
Most Regency Park homes need a unit that can deliver 7-10 gallons per minute to handle simultaneous hot water demands. This covers scenarios like someone showering while the dishwasher runs or multiple family members using hot water at the same time.
We calculate your needs based on the number of bathrooms, your family size, and typical usage patterns. A three-bedroom home with two full bathrooms usually requires an 8-9 GPM unit, while larger homes with multiple bathrooms may need 10+ GPM capacity.
The key is proper sizing during installation. An undersized unit won’t meet your demands during peak usage, while an oversized unit costs more upfront without providing additional benefits. Our technicians assess your specific situation to recommend the right capacity for your household.
Most installations are completed in 4-8 hours, allowing you to have hot water restored the same day. Simple replacements where existing gas lines and electrical connections are adequate take less time, while installations requiring new infrastructure may extend into a second day.
The timeline depends on your home’s current setup. If we’re replacing an existing tankless unit in the same location, the work moves quickly. Installing your first tankless system often requires additional electrical work, gas line modifications, or venting installation that extends the process.
We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Our technicians arrive with all necessary equipment and materials, work efficiently, and clean up thoroughly before testing your new system. You’ll have detailed instructions on operation and maintenance before we leave.
Tankless water heaters perform excellently in Sacramento’s climate. The moderate temperatures mean your unit doesn’t have to work as hard as it would in extremely cold regions, and the consistent climate helps maintain efficient operation year-round.
Sacramento’s water quality is generally good for tankless systems, though periodic maintenance helps prevent mineral buildup that can affect performance. The area’s natural gas availability makes gas-powered units particularly attractive for their lower operating costs and reliable performance.
Local utility companies offer rebates for energy-efficient tankless installations, recognizing their value in reducing peak energy demand. Combined with Sacramento’s moderate climate and reliable utilities, conditions are ideal for tankless water heater performance and longevity.
Annual maintenance typically involves flushing the system to remove mineral deposits and checking connections for proper operation. This service takes about an hour and helps maintain efficiency while extending your unit’s lifespan.
Sacramento’s water contains minerals that can accumulate over time, particularly in areas with harder water. Regular flushing prevents these deposits from reducing flow rates or affecting heating efficiency. Most manufacturers recommend professional maintenance annually, though some homeowners in areas with very soft water can extend this interval.
We provide maintenance services that include system flushing, filter replacement if applicable, checking gas connections and venting, and testing safety systems. This preventive approach helps avoid costly repairs and ensures your warranty remains valid. Many homeowners schedule maintenance during spring or fall when hot water demands are lower.
Sacramento area residents can access several rebate programs that significantly reduce installation costs. Local utilities offer rebates for energy-efficient models, with amounts varying based on the unit’s efficiency rating and fuel type.
SMUD and PG&E customers may qualify for rebates ranging from $200 to $600 for qualifying Energy Star certified units. Gas company rebates are also available for high-efficiency gas tankless systems. Federal tax credits may apply for certain high-efficiency models installed in residential properties.
We help customers navigate available rebate programs and ensure your installation meets all requirements for maximum savings. The paperwork can be complex, but we handle the details to help you capture every available incentive. Combined with long-term energy savings, these rebates often make tankless installation surprisingly affordable.
