However, there are certain advantages by getting the work done by a professional. One is purely psychological, that with installation having been done by a professional, the householder will feel relieved and secured. The other factor is that a professional always has an edge over the local electrician or plumber, due to his exposure and experience. A licensed professional electrician will take a couple of hours to finish job, where as the local fellow may takes longer hours. And there could be possible differences in their work; in refinement and finishing.

He called the service department, who first advised him to go through the manul, which would give some idea of trouble shooting if the nature of the trouble was common. But that didn't work.

On the subsequent day the dealer sent a mechanic. He had a look on the system and within five minutes his the machine started working. Alas it was a minor snag. Your electric titan tankless water heatermay stop producing water. Of course the reason can be many. Either the sensor or the heating element might have failed. If you are experienced working around electrical devices, you can sometime rectify it. The manual can help to a certain extend. You can access the connections, and can turn off the power to the device.

Then you should be able to check both the flow sensing switch and the heating element with an ohmmeter or a continuity tester. The switch should show a very low resistance - close to zero ohms, or light the test light when the water is turned on . The heating element should show a fairly low resistance i.e., few tens of ohms, or light the test light at all times.

Of course, if the problem is too complicated, you can't help proceed further. You would need a professional help. But water heater seldom fails to deliver or experience major breakdowns. The plus point is that the new electric titan tankless water heater comes with a warranty.

The tankless water heater is also known as on demand water heater, reflecting the way hot water is produced by this system. There are several factors that may influence your decision to install an on demand tankless water heater which produces instantaneous hot water.

One factor is an increase in your energy efficiency, and the other, the more important factor is the lowering of your energy bill. Traditional hot water heaters always operate turning on in order to heat the water in the tank, whether you need it or not. It is also immaterial if you are using hot water at all.

If water cools, energy is lost, and you have to turn on your traditional heater to heat it back up. This causes a standby loss, i.e., the energy escaping from the water sitting there in the tank.

By switching to a on demand water heater, households can save about 20% off their monthly water heating bill, which accounts for about 15% total expenses.

On demand water heater also enables access to unlimited hot water. This takes place as follows. The heating in an on demand water heating system is activated by the flow of water. So when you demand hot water, at different points, this system can produce hot water for hours, depending upon the size of the system.

A whole house water heater can offer between 2-5 gallons of hot water per minute. This compares to a 35-50 gallon traditional water heater in most homes.

There are two kinds of tankless hot water systems; the gas tankless hot water heater and the electric tankless hot water heater. Usually, electric tankless water heaters are small in size, and are designed for a point of use installation. That means they can be used for one small area in the house.

Compared to this, the gas tankless hot water heater installation is different. With a large heater, they can be used for the entire house. And their installation needs to be done professionally.

Cost is another consideration in selecting a water heating system for your household. On demand water heaters usually cost two to four times of the cost of a traditional hot water heater. But the benefits they give you in value, savings on energy and water bills will more than offset the extra dollar for their initial cost. On top of this, these systems give you a performance over 20 years, compared to the average 12 years by the traditional hot water heaters.
