Edmond, Oklahoma
Most of the work in tankless water heater installation in Edmond happens before the unit goes on the wall. A gas tankless heater usually needs a bigger gas supply than the tank it replaces, so we check your piping, venting route and water first. Then we install, repair and maintain the unit, including the flushing and descaling that Edmond's blended lake and well water calls for.

(405) 309-1873Oklahoma Natural Gas maintains the line that delivers gas to your house. Everything past that point, including the pipe that would feed a new tankless heater, belongs to the homeowner, and the gas company says customer piping should be inspected and repaired by a licensed contractor. Many Edmond homes from the 1970s through the 1990s were piped for a furnace, a range and a tank water heater. A gas tankless unit can draw far more gas than that old tank did, all at once, the moment a hot tap opens.
Venting is the other half of the plan. Condensing tankless units usually vent through plastic pipe to an outside wall and need a condensate drain, while non-condensing units need metal venting rated for them. We pick a route that keeps the vent clear of windows and keeps the condensate line out of the cold.
When the existing line is too small, the heater starves at high demand and throws errors or delivers lukewarm water. The fix is a properly sized new line from the meter or from a larger trunk. In Edmond, gas piping work falls under the city's mechanical permit, and the inspection list includes a gas line pressure test. We schedule that so the new piping is checked before the heater goes into service.
Edmond's tap water is part Arcadia Lake and part groundwater pumped from the Garber-Wellington aquifer by the city's own well field, and the 2025 water quality report lists dissolved minerals in the supply. In a tank heater those minerals settle as loose sediment. In a tankless heater they cling as scale inside a narrow heat exchanger, where even a thin layer cuts flow, raises the temperature of the metal and triggers error codes.
Descaling means closing the service valves, circulating a descaling solution through the heat exchanger with a small pump, flushing it clean and clearing the inlet screen. If your unit was installed without isolation valves, we add them so future service takes far less time.
Tankless heaters suit larger Edmond homes with several bathrooms, where a family can run two showers and a dishwasher at once, and they free up closet or garage space. They do not shorten the wait for hot water at a far bathroom, though. If that is your complaint, a recirculation setup may matter more than the heater type.

Licensed
A tankless conversion is mostly gas and venting work, and that is where shortcuts cause trouble. Our team does state-licensed plumbing work, including gas piping and venting. We size the gas line to the heater's rated input, run new pipe when the old line can't carry the load, and schedule the City of Edmond gas pressure test so the new line is inspected before the heater ever fires.
Since 1985
Our plumbing experience with Oklahoma water goes back to 1985, and tankless units show the effects of minerals faster than tanks do. Every install we do includes isolation valves so the heater can be descaled in place. On existing units, we flush the heat exchanger, clean the inlet screen and set you up on a maintenance schedule that matches how hard your family runs the heater.

These guys were great! A breath of fresh air from the usual contractor/service. They cared about fixing the problem not how much they can charge. I had a same day service need, leak in between floors, the day before a trip. They came out same day and presented multiple solutions as well as keen explanations.
Mr. Robert has amazing customer service and work ethic. He fixed our toilet very quickly and explained everything that he was doing, and even showed us the finished product. Awesome work!
After having issues with my bathroom and kitchen plumbing for a few days, I contacted Plumber Oklahoma City, OK Plumbing & Repair this morning. He told me he was very busy, but would work to schedule our repair in with his team.
Straight answers
Sometimes, but often not without changes. Many homes were piped for a furnace, a range and a tank heater, and a gas tankless unit can draw far more at full fire. We measure the existing pipe size and length from the meter, add up every gas appliance, and tell you whether the line works as is or needs an upgrade. That piping is the homeowner's, not the gas company's.
It depends on how much hot water your household uses and whether the house has a softener. Follow the manufacturer's schedule in your manual as the baseline. In homes on Edmond's blended lake and well water, we check the heat exchanger and inlet screen at each service and adjust the interval based on what we find, rather than guessing.
Yes. Units on exterior walls, and their condensate lines, can freeze when power is lost during a hard cold snap, because built-in freeze protection needs electricity to work. In February 2021 Oklahoma's statewide average on February 15 was minus 0.7°F. We insulate exposed lines, route condensate where it can drain, and show you how to drain the unit if a long outage is coming.
