Call (380) 273-8196Tankless Problems We Fix Around Stayton
The list below covers what we find on most visits for tankless water heater repair in Stayton, OR, from ignition codes to drips under the cabinet.
Unit won't light
A unit that clicks without lighting has an ignition, gas or venting fault, and each is checked in turn.
Drip from the cabinet
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.
Frozen after a cold night
Lines feeding the unit froze, or freeze protection lost power.
Noisy or whistling
Scale, a struggling fan or a gas regulator issue, each of which shows up on testing.
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.

Fix It or Retire It? Deciding in Stayton
Gas tankless units commonly last 20 years or more with flushing, so a single failed part rarely means a new heater. A failed exchanger outside its warranty, on a unit past 15 years, is where replacement starts to win.
