Running out of hot water halfway through a shower is the most common reason customers call us about tankless water heaters. A tankless unit heats water only when you turn on a tap, so there is no tank to run empty and no stored water to keep hot around the clock. Pierce Systems Inc has been installing and replacing water heaters for homes and businesses in Brighton, CO for 26 years. Our licensed technicians size the unit to your property, handle the gas, venting and water connections, and give you an honest quote before any work begins.
If your tank is leaking or has stopped heating, a replacement cannot wait. We can remove the old tank and install a new tankless unit or a standard replacement, and we will tell you which option fits your home and budget rather than pushing the most expensive one. Switching from a tank to tankless usually involves more than swapping equipment, so we check the gas supply, venting route and water lines first and explain exactly what your installation will need.
Tankless water heaters have different requirements from tank models. Many need a larger gas line, a dedicated vent that meets code, a condensate drain and correct water connections. Getting these wrong can cause poor performance or unsafe exhaust. Our licensed plumbers handle permits, venting and inspection requirements so the installation is done properly the first time.
Tankless heaters are sized by flow rate, the gallons per minute of hot water you need at the same time, and by how much the incoming water must be heated. Cold Colorado winters make that second part especially important. A unit that is too small will struggle when two showers and a dishwasher run together. We count your fixtures, look at how your household uses hot water and recommend a size that keeps up.
A tankless water heater takes up less space, can last longer than a tank and does not run out of hot water mid-use. A tank heater usually costs less to buy and install and is a simple swap when the connections are already in place. The right choice depends on your household size, budget, gas and venting setup and how long you plan to stay. We walk through both options with you so you can decide with clear numbers.
Tankless units need care too. Hard water can build scale inside the heat exchanger, which reduces performance and can trigger error codes. Regular flushing and inspection help keep a tankless heater efficient and can help meet manufacturer maintenance requirements. If your unit shows an error code, produces lukewarm water or shuts off, our technicians can diagnose the problem and repair it, or tell you plainly when replacement makes more sense.
We install tankless water heaters in homes, apartments and commercial properties. Commercial buildings often need higher flow rates or several units working together, and we plan those systems around how the building is actually used. Whether you are upgrading a family home or a business, you get the same licensed work and honest quote.
