🛠️ Professional Tankless Water Heater Installation
A tankless system must be installed correctly to work at peak efficiency. Our licensed gas fitters handle every part of the installation:
✔ Correct Sizing & Flow Rate Calculations
We assess your home’s hot water demand to choose the right BTU and GPM rating.

Tankless units often require larger gas lines — we install or upgrade them safely and to code.

We install proper venting, combustion air systems, and condensate drains according to Alberta mechanical code.
✔ Waterline, Drains & Electrical Setup
Includes isolation valves, pressure relief, drain connections, and electrical hookups where needed.
✔ Full Startup, Calibration & Testing
We test flow rates, temperature output, venting, CO levels, and overall system performance.
You get a clean, professional installation built to last.
