Advantages of Tankless Water Heaters
Installing a tankless water heater instead of a traditional unit can have many benefits. Some of the advantages on-demand water heaters provide can include:
- They save you money by using less energy and only heating the exact amount of water that’s needed.
- They require less maintenance than traditional units.
- They pose less risk of contaminated water since it isn’t stored in a tank.
- They take up less space than traditional models since a tank doesn’t need to be installed.
In many Orlando homes, the compact size of tankless units also makes it easier to meet local building or remodeling requirements, especially when water heaters are installed in tight utility closets or garages. Because these systems only heat water when you turn on a tap, they are a strong fit for the warm Central Florida climate, where households often want to reduce overall energy use without sacrificing comfort. When we help you choose a unit, we look at your family’s hot water habits, the layout of your property, and any future renovation plans so you get a system that fits your space and long-term goals.
Life Expectancy of Tankless Units
Just like a traditional water heater, eventually, a tankless system will need to be replaced. However, these units can last typically between 10 to 20 years, or longer, depending on the make and model. The timeline can also vary based on how well the system is maintained, how often it is used, and the quality of the water in your home. If you’re not sure how much longer your system has before it needs to be replaced, call Solaris Electric and have our experts inspect your unit.
When we evaluate an existing unit, we look for signs such as inconsistent water temperature, error codes, and visible corrosion so you can decide whether a repair or a planned replacement makes more sense for your home. Orlando’s water conditions and the presence of hard water can shorten a system’s lifespan if maintenance is skipped, so we often recommend a simple maintenance schedule that aligns with manufacturer guidelines. By planning ahead, you can budget for an upgrade instead of dealing with an unexpected failure on a busy workday or right before guests arrive.

Common Issues With on-Demand Water Heaters
There are many advantages to tankless water heaters, but like every system, there are also potential issues you should be aware of. Some common problems you might experience are:
- Problems during installation: During installation, extensive piping, proper venting, and electrical work are required. To avoid problems – and potential issues to the piping system – only let experienced professionals install the system.
- Buildup: Corrosion and mineral buildup may occur if the unit is not flushed every six months. To avoid this, schedule regular tune-ups with a plumber.
- Overload: Product overload can occur if the right-sized unit was not purchased for the home.
Homeowners in the Orlando area also sometimes notice issues like reduced water pressure at distant fixtures or inconsistent temperature when multiple showers and appliances run at the same time. These symptoms can point to sizing or configuration problems that are best evaluated by a licensed electrician familiar with both the plumbing layout and the electrical demands of modern tankless systems. When we troubleshoot these concerns, we review how your family actually uses hot water each day so we can recommend adjustments, repairs, or possible upgrades that will improve comfort and reliability.
Our Tankless Water Heater Installation Process
When you schedule tankless service with us, we start by reviewing your household’s hot water needs, your existing electrical panel, and the available space where the new equipment will go. This first visit is also when we talk through any Orlando-area permitting requirements and typical placement considerations, such as garage versus interior closet, so you understand what will happen on installation day. By looking closely at your home’s layout and daily routines, we can recommend a system size and configuration that supports how you actually live instead of relying on rough estimates.
On installation day, we protect nearby flooring and surfaces, shut off utilities in a safe sequence, and then remove the old unit before mounting and connecting the new tankless system. Our team handles the necessary electrical connections, venting, and startup checks, and we stay until the unit has been tested at several fixtures so you can see the new setup in action. Before we leave, we walk you through basic maintenance tasks and answer questions about settings, so you feel confident using your new system in every season of Orlando’s climate.
When you’re ready for a more energy-efficient hot water system in your Orlando, FL, home, call Solaris Electric at (321) 419-1924 for tankless water heater installations and repairs. We guarantee 100% satisfaction!
Frequently Asked Questions About Tankless Water Heaters
Is it worth getting a tankless water heater?
Here are key reasons many homeowners choose tankless systems:
- Improved energy efficiency: Tankless water heaters only heat water when you need it, which can reduce wasted energy compared to storing hot water in a tank.
- Consistent hot water: Properly sized units can supply a steady stream of hot water for showers, dishwashing, and laundry.
- Space-saving design: Wall-mounted units free up floor space in garages, closets, or utility rooms.
- Long-term value: With a longer average lifespan than many traditional models, tankless systems can be a strong long-term investment.
Yes! Tankless water heaters are energy-efficient, provide endless hot water, and take up less space. They can save you money on energy bills and last longer than traditional units.
What is a tankless water heater?
A tankless water heater heats water instantly as it flows through the unit, providing on-demand hot water and eliminating the need for a storage tank.
How long do tankless water heaters last?
With proper maintenance, a tankless water heater can last 10-20 years, much longer than traditional tank models, which typically last around 10 years.
Do tankless water heaters need maintenance?
Yes, regular maintenance is important. Flushing the unit every 6 months to remove mineral buildup can help maintain efficiency and extend the system's lifespan.
Are tankless water heaters suitable for large homes?
Yes, tankless units can be sized to meet the hot water demands of large homes, though you may need multiple units or a larger model for higher capacity.
What are the installation requirements?
Tankless water heaters require proper venting and electrical connections, so professional installation by a licensed plumber or electrician is essential for optimal performance.
Can a tankless water heater work with hard water?
Tankless units can work with hard water, but mineral buildup may reduce efficiency. Water softeners can help prevent damage and improve performance in hard water areas.
Homeowners who are planning a tankless upgrade in the Orlando area often ask how to choose the right time for replacement and what to expect during installation. We typically recommend scheduling the work during a period when you can be without hot water for a short window, such as a weekday morning, and we coordinate shutoffs with you so there are no surprises. Because Central Florida homes can have different electrical panel capacities and plumbing layouts, we review your existing setup in advance and explain any code-related updates that may be required to keep your project aligned with local building standards and safety guidelines.
