Tankless Water Heaters in Mokena, IL
Endless hot water and more space in the utility room. We install, repair and maintain tankless water heaters and tell you honestly whether one makes sense for your home. From our office on Jodi Road.
How a Tankless Water Heater Works
A tankless heater heats water only when a tap opens. Water flows through a heat exchanger, a burner or element fires and hot water comes out as long as you need it. There's no tank to keep hot all day, so it uses less energy when you're not using water. The trade-off: it has a limit on how much hot water it can make at once, so it has to be sized for your busiest moment.
Tank vs. Tankless for Mokena Homes
How they compare:
| Tank | Tankless | |
|---|---|---|
| Hot water supply | Limited to the tank | Continuous, up to its flow rate |
| Typical life | About 8 to 12 years | Often longer with maintenance |
| Space | A tank on the floor | A unit on the wall |
| Maintenance | Yearly flush | Yearly descaling |
Is Tankless Right for Your Mokena Home?
Many Mokena homes are a good fit, with a few things to check first.
Gas Line Size
Gas tankless units need a lot of gas at once. The line from the meter may need to be upsized.
Venting
Tankless units need their own venting, usually through the side wall.
Busy Mornings
We size the unit so two showers and the dishwasher can run at once.
Descaling Matters
Minerals build up in the heat exchanger. A yearly flush keeps it running right.
