"Absolutely 5-star service."
I bought a top-of-the-line HVAC unit from Thomas Service Company last year—a really good experience. When my heat shut off last night, they sent a tech who quickly fixed the issue. They honored their warranty and even found another electric issue I wasn't aware of. Absolutely 5-star service.

Why Go Tankless?
Homeowners are making the switch to tankless water heaters because they come with a ton of benefits. Here are just a few reasons people are loving these systems:
- Better Energy Efficiency: Tankless water heaters only heat water when you need it, instead of keeping a tank of water hot all day long. This means you can reduce your energy use by up to 24-34%—that’s a nice little energy savings boost!
- Lower Utility Bills: Since they use less energy, tankless systems can help shrink your monthly utility bill. On average, households that switch to tankless heaters save 27-50% more energy compared to traditional tank heaters. That’s money back in your pocket!
- Longer Lifespan: A tankless water heater can last about 20 years, whereas a traditional tank heater typically only lasts 10-15 years. That’s double the lifespan!
- Space Savers: Tankless units are compact—around 28 inches tall, 20 inches wide, and just 10 inches deep—so they take up much less space than bulky tank heaters.
- Less Maintenance: While tankless heaters still need some maintenance, it’s generally a lot less intense than what’s required for traditional tanks.
Local Tips for Huntsville Homeowners
Living in Huntsville, with our humid summers and mild winters, means tankless water heaters can be a great fit. Since they only heat water on demand, they adapt well to the fluctuating water use we see throughout the year.
Huntsville’s tech-savvy, energy-efficient mindset also makes tankless heaters a perfect match. And don’t forget—local utility companies often offer rebates or incentives for installing energy-efficient appliances like these, so you might get some help with the upfront costs.
Maintenance Tips for Huntsville
Maintaining a tankless water heater in Huntsville is pretty straightforward, but one thing to watch out for is our mineral-rich water, which can lead to scale buildup. Regular descaling (yearly or twice a year depending on your water hardness) will keep your system running smoothly. Installing a water softener can help, too, especially if you’re in a harder water area.
