Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless Water Heater Repair & Replacement

Tankless water heaters – sometimes called on-demand water heaters – are a modern, energy-efficient alternative to traditional tank models. Instead of storing and reheating gallons of water, they heat water instantly as it flows through the unit.

That means you’ll never “run out” of hot water, making them a favorite for busy households, large families, and anyone who values efficiency.

However, while they require less maintenance than traditional tanks, they still need expert care. Mineral buildup, faulty sensors, or ignition problems can interrupt performance – and that’s where Victory Plumbing’s tankless expertise comes in.

What Is a Tankless Water Heater and Why It Matters

A tankless water heater consists of:

  • A heat exchanger (powered by gas burners or electric elements)
  • Flow sensors to detect water movement
  • Electronic controls to regulate temperature and operation

Why it matters:

  • Endless hot water: Perfect for households with high hot water demand.
  • Energy savings: No standby heat loss like tank systems.
  • Space savings: Wall-mounted design frees up floor space.
  • Longer lifespan: Can last 5 – 10 years longer than traditional models with proper care.

Common Causes of Tankless Water Heater Problems

Even the most advanced units can run into trouble if not properly installed or maintained. Common causes include:

  • Hard water mineral buildup: Reduces efficiency and can damage internal components.
  • Blocked venting or air supply: Prevents combustion in gas units.
  • Ignition failure: Often caused by faulty sensors or gas supply issues.
  • Cold water sandwich effect: A brief burst of cold water between hot cycles.
  • Overloaded system: Trying to run too many fixtures at once for the unit’s capacity.
  • Improper installation: Incorrect venting, gas line sizing, or electrical setup.

Signs You May Need Tankless Water Heater Repairs or Replacement

Watch for these warning signs:

  • Fluctuating water temperature during showers or dishwashing
  • Error codes displayed on the unit’s control panel
  • Low hot water pressure
  • Strange noises (clicking, rumbling, or humming)
  • Discolored or foul-smelling water
  • No hot water at all despite the unit being powered on
  • Age over 15 years with frequent repairs

Pro Tips for Maintaining Your Tankless Water Heater

Travis came to our house within an hour of our call, diagnosed the problem, and gave us a fair quote. Work is scheduled to be done soon
Diane M. T. J.
Eric and Mason came on time and figured out what needed to be done for my toilet that keep running. They were professional, knowledgeable, and helpful with answering my questions. They even fixed a couple of things like cleaning out my drain and cleaning out my faucet cover in the main bathroom. They even helped right and wrong that was done by a plumber from Ray Lusk. I would never recommend them since they did such a lousy job for me. Eric and Mason said they want to treat all their customers as if they were family. Drop the mic. I will never use anyone but them.
Bobby B.
Prompt, friendly service! Always have a great experience when we speak to the Victory team!
Nikolas C.
Very professional, came in and got the job done quickly! Thank you!

Victory plumbing is amazing! The owner and technicians are extremely knowledgeable and very thorough. Everyone is professional and it’s evident they truly care about the service they provide and the outcome of their work. They moved/relocated some plumbing for a master bathroom. I highly recommend this company. Thanks again Victory Plumbing, we appreciate you!

Deidre B.
Top notch service completed on time and within budget.
Jeff and Eric arrived on time for an appointment last week to investigate two plumbing issues. They quickly discovered the issue and explained the needed repairs. We scheduled a follow up and again, they arrived on time, completed the work, fixed another faucet AND installed a tankless water heater! Both men were professional and polite and took their time to make sure I understood everything because I am not plumbing proficient by any means. I will never consider any other company! I cannot say enough good things about Jeff and Eric and of course Travis. HIGHLY recommend to anyone.
Deedra J.
Travis showed up and helped us install some new fixtures on our remodel. Fast, efficient and professional. I highly recommend Travis and his team!
Loretta E.
Technicians were professional and quick. Did a great job with our repair in a very timely manner after the 2022 freeze. Very satisfied.
Paul V.
Today my hot water tank decided to burst on the coldest day of the year. I called Travis at 5:12pm and he and Jeff were at my home removing the old tank and installing the new tank. By 7:08pm I had a new tank installed and hot water.

I cannot thank Travis and his team enough. Their service was exceptional and outstanding. Highly recommend Victory Plumbing.
Gee J.
Victory Plumbing really does give "World Class" service. These are honest, kind hearted people who are extremely knowledgeable, continuously trained using up to date methods, giving you the best of their talents each and every day. Trust them. Try them, you will not be disappointed. Your satisfaction is their goal. They did the underground plumbing work to prepare for the installation of my whole home generator. They did an excellent job! For all my plumbing needs I will call Victory Plumbing.

JT N.
Thanks so much to Gaven and Carlos for finding and repairing a water line leak today! Great guys - top notch work and a very fair price!
Charlene G.
Travis and his crew are 100% amazing, honest, hardworking & dependable!
I had a leak under my sink that turned into a nightmare (thanks to an 85-year-old fixer-upper we just purchased - see the picture of pipe..lol). He not only squeezed us in ahead of schedule, but when the major problem was discovered under our house (which by the way we have a very small crawl space under our house and they were able to fit underneath - thank goodness), he was able to re-adjust his schedule to get our new problem taken care of and was honest and beyond fair with his pricing! I 100% recommend Victory Plumbing!
Amy Peace D.
Very pleased with Victory's service. They arrived on time and worked quickly. Underneath my kitchen sink where they were working was cleaner when they left than when they arrived. They thoroughly fixed an issue that another company had just been applying band-aids to and making the problem worse. Highly recommend.
Jeremy B.
Travis was quick to put me on the schedule for the very next day. The team was very professional and informative. Top notch service at a reasonable price. If you’re in need of a Plumber, give them a call.

Can’t recommend these guys enough! Great work and reasonable too! 100% satisfied!!

Folks if y’all need an AWESOME plumber, Victory Plumbing is the ticket!!! They know what they are doing and DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME AND ARE HONEST AND HARD WORKING! You can’t beat ‘em and so well worth the call, even if you are out of their area!
Jared W. B.
My water heater went out overnight a couple of weeks ago, and we have 3 kids and my wife was 39 weeks pregnant at the time. Travis came over as soon as he could and respected our social distancing in order to keep my family healthy before the birth of our daughter. I would highly recommend them to anybody.
Jared M.
Travis is a great guy! He’s dependable and knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Travis was so nice to come out on the Saturday before Christmas to install my new garbage disposal. He was honest, efficient, and charged less than the competition. He even gave me a few helpful tips to keep it in good working order in future. I'm so happy to have a fully functional kitchen again.
