No more cold showers when everyone’s getting ready for work. No more waiting for the tank to refill after your teenager’s marathon shower. Your new tankless system heats water instantly as you need it, so you get hot water on demand without the energy waste of keeping 40-80 gallons heated around the clock.
Your utility bills drop immediately. Most Rescue homeowners see 30-50% energy savings within the first month. That’s real money back in your pocket every single month for the next 20 years.
You reclaim valuable space in your utility room. These compact units mount on the wall and take up about as much room as a large medicine cabinet. No more working around that bulky tank when you need to access other utilities.
We’ve earned a 4.7-star reputation in the Sacramento area by doing what others don’t: showing up on time, giving you straight answers, and charging fair prices. Our final costs are often less than our original estimates, not more.
We understand Rescue’s unique challenges. The area’s hard water can be tough on traditional tank systems, but tankless units handle mineral buildup better and last longer. We’ve been helping local families upgrade their homes with energy-efficient solutions that make sense for both their budgets and California’s environmental goals.
When your water heater fails, we’re available 24/7. No waiting until Monday morning when you need hot water for your family right now.
We start with a free consultation at your home. We’ll assess your current setup, measure your hot water usage needs, and explain your options without any pressure. You’ll get a clear, upfront estimate that covers everything.
On installation day, our licensed technicians arrive on time with all necessary permits and equipment. We handle the gas line modifications, electrical connections, and venting requirements that tankless systems need. Most installations take 4-6 hours depending on your home’s configuration.
We test everything thoroughly before we leave. You’ll see hot water flowing to every fixture, and we’ll walk you through your new system’s operation. We clean up completely and remove your old unit. You’re left with endless hot water and lower energy bills starting immediately.

Your tankless installation includes all necessary permits, gas line upgrades, electrical connections, and proper venting. We handle the paperwork with El Dorado County so you don’t have to navigate permit requirements yourself.
Rescue’s elevation and climate make tankless systems particularly effective here. The moderate temperatures mean your unit won’t work as hard as it would in extreme climates, extending its lifespan even further. You’ll also benefit from California’s rebate programs – we help you apply for up to $200 in Energy Star rebates to offset your investment.
Every installation comes with manufacturer warranties up to 15 years on parts, plus our one-year labor warranty. We also provide annual maintenance reminders because proper descaling in Rescue’s mineral-rich water environment keeps your system running efficiently for decades.
Installation costs typically range from $2,500 to $4,500 in the Rescue area, depending on your home’s current setup and the unit size you need. This includes the tankless unit, all necessary gas line modifications, electrical work, permits, and professional installation.
The investment pays for itself through energy savings. Most homeowners save $300-500 annually on utility bills, so you’ll recover your costs within 5-8 years. Then you enjoy another 12-15 years of savings since these units last 20+ years compared to 10-12 years for traditional tanks.
We provide transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. Many of our customers find their final bill is actually less than our initial estimate because we quote conservatively and pass savings along when the job goes smoothly.
Absolutely, but proper sizing is crucial. We calculate your household’s peak demand by considering how many fixtures might run simultaneously during your busiest times. A family of 4-6 people typically needs a unit with 8-10 GPM (gallons per minute) flow rate to handle multiple showers plus dishwasher or washing machine.
Unlike tank systems that run out of hot water, tankless units provide continuous flow as long as demand doesn’t exceed the unit’s capacity. For very large families or homes with high simultaneous usage, we might recommend two smaller units or a high-capacity commercial-grade unit.
During our free consultation, we’ll review your family’s hot water patterns and recommend the right solution. We’ve never had a properly sized installation that couldn’t keep up with a family’s needs.
Most installations take 4-6 hours for a straightforward replacement, but can extend to a full day if significant gas line or electrical upgrades are needed. The timeline depends on your home’s current infrastructure and whether we’re replacing an existing tankless unit or converting from a traditional tank.
We schedule installations when it’s convenient for you and complete everything in one visit whenever possible. Our technicians arrive with all necessary permits, parts, and equipment so there are no delays waiting for materials.
You’ll have hot water restored the same day. We test every fixture before we leave and won’t consider the job complete until you have full hot water service throughout your home.
Gas tankless units work during power outages, but electric models don’t. Even gas units need a small amount of electricity for the ignition system and controls, but many newer models have battery backup systems that keep them running when the power goes out.
This is particularly valuable in Rescue where winter storms can cause power outages. If you choose a gas tankless unit with battery backup, you’ll maintain hot water even when your neighbors don’t.
We’ll explain the power requirements during your consultation and help you choose the right fuel type based on your priorities. Many of our customers specifically choose gas units for the power outage reliability, especially if they have wells that also stop working during outages.
Annual descaling is the main maintenance requirement, especially important in Rescue due to the area’s hard water. Mineral buildup reduces efficiency and can damage internal components if not addressed regularly.
The process involves flushing the system with a descaling solution to remove calcium and lime deposits. We recommend professional service because improper descaling can void warranties, but the annual cost is typically $150-200.
We provide maintenance reminders and can set up annual service contracts to keep your system running efficiently. Proper maintenance extends the unit’s 20-year lifespan and maintains peak energy efficiency. Neglected units can lose 10-15% efficiency within just a few years.
Yes, several rebate programs can significantly reduce your costs. Energy Star certified natural gas tankless units qualify for up to $200 in utility rebates. California’s new federal programs offer up to $4,000-8,000 in additional rebates based on household income.
We handle the rebate paperwork as part of our service. The process can be complex with different requirements for different programs, but we know exactly which forms to submit and when to maximize your savings.
These rebates are available on a first-come, first-served basis and funding can run out, so it’s worth moving quickly if you’re considering an upgrade. Combined with the long-term energy savings, many homeowners find their net cost is surprisingly affordable.
