Tank to Tankless Water Heater Conversion
Converting from a traditional tank water heater to a modern tankless system delivers endless hot water, significant space savings, and 20-30% energy cost reduction. We specialize in seamless tank-to-tankless conversions across Metro Vancouver with full code compliance and permit management.
Benefits of Converting to Tankless
Never run out of hot water during showers, laundry, or multiple simultaneous uses.
Heat water only on demand, eliminating standby energy losses from tank storage.
Wall-mounted tankless units free up valuable floor space previously occupied by tanks.
Tankless systems last nearly twice as long as traditional tank water heaters.
Reduced natural gas or electricity consumption translates to monthly utility savings.
No tank corrosion or sediment buildup affecting water quality.
Conversion Process
Home Assessment
We evaluate your current tank system, gas availability, electrical capacity, and household hot water needs.
System Design
Calculate GPM demand, select appropriate tankless model, and plan installation location and venting.
Tank Removal
Safely drain, disconnect, and remove your old tank water heater from the property.
Infrastructure Upgrades
Upgrade gas lines (often from 1/2" to 3/4"), install proper venting, and ensure adequate electrical supply.
Tankless Installation
Mount and connect new tankless unit with all required safety devices and controls.
Testing & Permits
Commission system, apply for permits, and coordinate municipal inspection for approval.
Important Conversion Considerations
Most tank water heaters use 1/2" gas lines, while tankless systems require 3/4" lines for adequate flow. We handle this upgrade as part of the conversion.
Tankless units have different venting needs than tanks. We assess existing venting and make necessary modifications to meet manufacturer and code specifications.
Gas tankless units need dedicated 120V electrical circuits for ignition and controls. We ensure proper electrical supply is available.
Tankless systems require minimum water pressure to activate. We test and address any pressure issues during conversion.
