Tankless water heaters have changed the game for homeowners looking to improve comfort, reduce utility bills, and reclaim valuable space. If your current water heater is nearing the end of its life—or you’re building or remodeling—a tankless system may be the smartest move you make this year.
Turner Plumbing has helped hundreds of Jacksonville homeowners and businesses make the switch to tankless. We’ll walk you through your options, explain how these systems work, and handle the install with precision. No high-pressure sales. No flat-rate surprises. Just honest guidance from a fourth-generation team that gets it right the first time.
Tankless water heaters, also known as on-demand or instant water heaters, only heat water when it’s needed. Traditional tanks keep 30–80 gallons of water hot all day, which wastes energy—especially when you’re not using it.
Tankless systems activate only when you turn on a hot tap. Cold water passes through a heating element or gas burner, providing hot water in real time without relying on storage.
This quick-reference list gives homeowners a clear understanding of what tankless systems deliver—especially compared to traditional tank units:
Endless hot water for showers, laundry, and dishwashing
Lower energy use and monthly utility savings
Compact, space-saving design that mounts to a wall
Longer lifespan—up to 20 years with proper maintenance
Reduced leak risk due to no stored water
Cleaner water—no sediment build-up sitting in a tank
Eco-conscious efficiency with potential rebates
Smart home compatibility with modern digital models
These systems are especially ideal for energy-conscious homeowners, growing families, and homes with frequent simultaneous hot water needs.
Both systems heat water on demand, but your home’s setup—and your usage—will guide the right choice.
Suitable for large families and higher flow demand
Powered by natural gas or propane
Requires proper ventilation and gas line sizing
Higher upfront install cost, but lower long-term fuel expense
Ideal for small homes, condos, or point-of-use setups
No venting required
Lower initial install cost
May struggle with simultaneous high-flow uses in large homes
We’ll evaluate your usage and infrastructure before recommending what’s best for your home.
ENERGY STAR® reports that tankless water heaters are:
24–34% more energy efficient in homes using less than 41 gallons/day
8–14% more efficient in homes using around 86 gallons/day
They’re especially cost-effective for households with moderate daily use or those upgrading from older, less efficient tank models. And with fewer breakdowns over time, they often pay for themselves.
