Tank-to-Tankless Conversion in Essex: what is different here
In Ivoryton and Centerbrook, many conversions involve propane, since natural gas is limited in parts of Essex. A tankless unit needs a bigger burst of fuel than a tank, so we check the line size and regulator, and plan a new vent instead of using the old chimney.

Essex questions
Maybe, but it must be checked. Tankless heaters need a large burst of fuel when hot water runs, which can exceed what an older propane line or regulator delivers. We size the line during the estimate. Some Ivoryton and Centerbrook homes need a larger line or regulator to convert.
Typical gas tank to tankless usually takes one to two days, and electric tank to gas tankless takes two days or more. Essex is about 10 minutes from our shop, so the drive adds little to your visit. We confirm the time with you when you book.
