Endless hot water, 20+ year lifespan, and properly sized for our 6,035-foot altitude. Licensed Rinnai, Navien, and Noritz installations — fully permitted and altitude-derated.
On-demand hot water installed right — properly sized for Colorado Springs altitude and your household’s peak demand.
Never run out, even with multiple bathrooms running simultaneously when properly sized for your household’s peak demand.
Tankless units typically outlast tank water heaters by 8–12 years, making the higher upfront cost work in your favor over time.
20–30% lower operating costs vs traditional tanks because there’s no standby heat loss keeping water hot around the clock.
Wall-mounted units free up significant floor space in your utility room or garage compared to a standard 50-gallon tank.
Gas tankless units lose ~4% efficiency per 1,000 feet — we size every unit for Colorado Springs’ actual delivery rate, not the sea-level rating on the box.
Optional recirculation pumps deliver hot water to your fixtures faster than tank systems can, eliminating the cold-water wait.
Tankless water heaters make the most sense for households with three or more people, multiple bathrooms running simultaneously, or homes where utility room space is limited. They cost more upfront — typically $3,000 to $5,500 installed in Colorado Springs depending on the unit — but they deliver unlimited hot water, save 20–30% on energy bills, and last twice as long as tank units. For smaller households with simpler hot water demand, a standard tank unit is usually still the better value. We’ll give you our honest read either way.
Gas tankless water heaters at sea level can deliver 9 to 11 gallons per minute. At Colorado Springs’ 6,035-foot elevation, that same unit produces roughly 10% less due to thinner air and reduced combustion efficiency. Most plumbers ignore this and install whatever the manufacturer’s sea-level chart recommends. Then their customers end up with lukewarm showers when the dishwasher and washing machine run at the same time. We measure your actual peak demand, factor in the temperature rise needed to bring 42-degree winter incoming water up to 120 degrees, and size the unit accordingly — usually one tier larger than the chart says.
We install Rinnai, Navien, and Noritz tankless units. Rinnai is our most-recommended brand for residential installs in Colorado Springs — proven reliability at altitude and excellent parts availability. Navien is our recommendation for homes wanting integrated recirculation. Noritz is the go-to for high-demand applications like multi-bathroom homes or small commercial spaces. Every unit comes with the manufacturer’s full warranty plus our own labor guarantee.
Most tankless installations land between $3,000 and $5,500 installed in our market. The variables are the unit itself (residential models range from $1,200 to $3,000), gas line size (a 1/2 inch line often needs to be upsized to 3/4 inch to deliver adequate fuel), venting (most tankless units require dedicated stainless or PVC venting), and electrical (some units need a dedicated circuit). We provide a firm itemized quote before any work begins — no surprise add-ons mid-job. If you want a sense of pricing for tank units instead, see our water heater installation page.
If your tankless unit is over 12 years old and needs a major repair like a heat exchanger, replacement usually makes more sense. If it’s under 8 years old and you’re seeing error codes, descaling buildup, or flow sensor issues, repair is almost always the right call. We’ll diagnose the problem, give you both numbers, and let you decide. For tankless repair specifically, see our water heater repair page.
We don’t always stock tankless units on trucks, but when your unit arrives we’ll typically install it the same day. Call us first and we’ll coordinate the timing.
