On-demand hot water that does not run out and does not sit in a tank losing heat. Navien installation, repair and descaling service.
A tankless water heater does not store hot water, it heats it as you draw it. Nothing sits in a tank cooling between showers, nothing runs out when the fourth person wants one, and the unit itself takes up a fraction of the space a storage tank does.
R. Davis Mechanical installs Navien tankless systems and services all major tankless brands. Converting from a storage tank is more than swapping a box on the wall: gas supply and venting are usually what decide whether a tankless unit performs, and we check both before quoting rather than discovering a problem mid-job.
Considering tankless, or losing performance on the one you have? Call 412-370-0464 and we will tell you honestly which way we would go.

Error codes on the display, water that turns lukewarm mid-shower, or flow that will not trigger the burner. Most performance loss traces to scale rather than failure.

New installs and conversions from a storage tank, including Navien systems, with gas supply and venting route planned as part of the quote.

Descaling and system service. Pittsburgh water leaves scale in a tankless heat exchanger, and descaling is what keeps the unit performing as designed.
Repair usually makes sense on units under 10 years old, on single component failures, on problems caused by missed maintenance such as scale buildup, and on systems still under warranty.
Scale in the heat exchanger is the most common reason a tankless unit stops delivering. It is a service item, not a failure, and regular descaling is what prevents it in hard-water areas like ours.
