Tankless Water Heaters in Walled Lake, MI

If you have an on-demand water heater, Matheson Heating, Air & Plumbing provides the tankless water heater service in Walled Lake, MI, you need. We recommend preventative service for your tankless water heater each year and encourage you to call us for service at the first signs of a problem. Modern tankless water heaters are highly efficient but also sensitive devices. Small problems can lead to a significant increase in energy consumption, disrupt your hot water supply, and eventually lead to much more expensive repairs.

Walled Lake Tankless Water Heater

Limescale is the top reason we advise annual service for your tankless water heater in Walled Like. Water supplies often contain calcium and magnesium, which coagulate and harden in your system. Scale can build up on nozzles, valves, heating elements, and other components. It can also build up in tubes and pipes. This can quickly lead to increased operating costs and reduced hot water pressure.

To clean the system, we’ll descale it. It involves using a recirculating pump and a large bucket to cycle water and a cleaning agent through the system. If the scale buildup is light, household vinegar is often strong enough for the job. If the buildup is dense, we may have to use a chemical agent to remove the scale. Routine service also involves a multipoint inspection, flushing the tubes and pipes, and checking and adjusting gas pressure if applicable. Our plumber will inspect any filters and clean or replace them as needed.

Ignition problems are prevalent as well. Many modern tankless water heaters provide a digital code that will give you some idea of what’s happening. Sometimes, it can be as simple as a tripped circuit breaker you need to reset or a pilot light to relight. If a breaker keeps tripping or a pilot keeps going out, call us instead. This suggests a much more serious problem, and you could cause further damage by continuing to use the system. There could be a problem with wiring, a gas valve, venting, the thermocouple, etc.

A common inconvenience our customers experience is the cold water sandwich effect. This is where you turn on a fixture and get hot water, only for cold water to interrupt it. The industry has largely overcome this shortcoming of on-demand water heaters. It’s primarily a minor issue caused by residual hot water in the line. If you’d like to eliminate the inconvenience, we can add a compact storage tank or a recirculating pump to your system.

Timely tankless water heater service is a worthwhile investment:
  • Avoid major repairs
  • Lower operating costs
  • Increase equipment lifespan
  • Reduce total cost of ownership
  • Lessen your household carbon footprint

Another Successful Comfort Mission!

Devin came on a Monday, fixed the urgently needed repair, which he squared away quickly the same day. He caught the dates on my furnace and realized my warranty was up in 13 days… GREAT catch! So Matheson was able to get Devin and Jack back over the very next day where they serviced the furnace for the winter in such a timely and friendly manner. I feel much more confident this winter because of them.

We have used Matheson Heating Air & Plumbing services…Devin & Trevor…for years and their level of service is awesome. Our HVAC system was approx 28 years old and time to replace. We wish to compliment Todd & Troy for explaining and making the quote and installation process for our new Carrier system. The installation crew Scott, Jack, Gavin arrived @8:00 am and completed an exceptional job by 4:00 pm. The next day Jared, Zac, Brock completed a plumbing upgrade to our complete satisfaction. We appreciate the effort and dedication and business culture of Matheson throughout the entire process. Thank You !!!

Trevor was not only extremely polite, he was also very thorough with the fall tune-up of my HVAC unit. All the technicians from Matheson are good, but Trevor is truly one of the best. I hope he continues to be the technician they send to our home in the future.

I have used this company for over 30 years and have always been pleased with my seasonal A/C checks and furnace checks. I always request Trevor because I like the continuity of care he offers as a service tech. I also am very pleased with the new furnace and AC units that replaced the ones that were wearing out. Now that they have added plumbing services, I have hired them to so my plumbing work. Everyone at Matheson is cheerful, friendly and very professional! I recommend them unconditionally! Great work, great work ethic!

Jared was fantastic both in our initial plumbing whole-house evaluation, and then replacing our aging sump pump. Very quick, friendly, polite, and professional. I am happy to continue to do business with him and Matheson in the future.

We have strictly used Matheson for all of our HVAC, heating and plumbing needs for the last few years. It's the first place I call. They always show up on time. Punctual. Respectful and every single rep knows what they're doing. On this last visit , Jared showed up to fix a failed copper pipe in the ceiling and had it done faster than I ever imagined. Every single person that's showed up to our house from this company has been absolutely professional and absolutely knowledgeable in their field. The one small touch my wife and I love is that they always put booties over their shoes when they walk into your house. I feel extremely comfortable recommending them to any of my friends and family!
I required a very large job which included adding seven mini split/heat pumps throughout my home. Matheson was amazing. Informed and educated me on every part of the system. It was completed in four days (they estimated five), cleaned everything up every day and were extremely polite. I was very impressed.

Kevin came over yesterday to do routine maintenance on our boiler and AC. He was punctual, considerate and friendly. He informed me of what he was doing and left everything better and more tidy than he found it! We've used Matheson in the past and will keep using them, they always do a great job. Highly recommend.
