Tankless Units in College Place Homes
Most College Place homes keep the tankless on a garage wall. Mild, damp winters are easy on units, but the occasional deep freeze catches exposed lines.
What we run into in College Place
- Garage installs. Here the unit typically lives in the garage, so the inlet filter and the service valves are easy to get at when it needs attention.
- Freeze damage. A hard freeze can split the pipes feeding a unit. Its built-in freeze protection only works while the unit still has power and gas.

The list below covers what we find on most visits for tankless water heater repair in College Place, WA, from ignition codes to drips under the cabinet.
Unit won't light
No ignition usually means gas pressure, a worn igniter, a dirty flame rod or a blocked vent. Each is tested.
Water under the unit
Drips come from service valves, fittings, the relief valve, the condensate line or the heat exchanger itself.
Code 10 or E110
An air or exhaust code stops the burner for safety. The intake and exhaust are cleared and checked.
Error code keeps coming back
A reset only clears the symptom. Repeated ignition or exhaust codes need a visit.
Hot, then cold, then hot
A short cold burst after the tap reopens is normal start-up. Swings during one shower point to low flow, scale or a failing flow sensor.
Not as hot as it used to be
Scale on the heat exchanger, a weak gas supply or a thermistor reading wrong.

Call (380) 273-8196How much does tankless water heater repair in College Place, WA cost?

Can a tankless water heater be repaired?
