Tankless water heaters offer endless hot water and better long-term efficiency than a traditional tank, but they need to be sized correctly for your home’s actual usage. Briargate wasn’t annexed into Colorado Springs until 1982, and its earliest homes were built on land that had only recently moved off private wells and septic systems onto city water and sewer. That means some of the oldest plumbing in Briargate is now over 40 years old, while newer sections built through the 2000s and beyond have modern supply and drain lines. We adjust our approach to tankless water heaters based on when your specific home’s plumbing was installed.

If your household regularly runs out of hot water, a tankless system is worth considering. We’ll walk through your actual usage before recommending it, since it’s not the right fit for every home. If your tankless water heaters needs turn out to be more involved, our plumbers can also handle traditional water heater replacement during the same visit, so you’re not scheduling a second appointment for a related issue.

• Running Out of Hot Water Regularly: a common reason homeowners consider switching to tankless.
• Wanting to Free Up Storage Space: tankless units are compact compared to a traditional tank.
• Existing Tankless Unit Not Heating Properly: could be a flow sensor, igniter, or scale buildup issue.
• Considering Long-Term Efficiency: tankless systems can lower energy costs over time compared to a tank.
• Planning a Remodel That Involves the Water Heater: a good time to evaluate whether tankless makes sense for your home.

Here’s what to watch for when it comes to tankless water heaters in your Briargate home.
