Frequently Asked Questions About Takagi
Get expert answers to common Takagi questions
How long do Takagi tankless water heaters last?
With proper annual maintenance, Takagi tankless water heaters typically last 20-25 years, nearly twice as long as traditional tank water heaters. The commercial-grade copper heat exchanger is exceptionally durable and backed by a 10-year warranty. Many Takagi units from the 1990s are still operating efficiently today in Vancouver homes.
What size Takagi do I need for my Vancouver home?
For a typical 1-2 bathroom home or condo, the T-KJr2 (140,000 BTU) provides sufficient hot water. Most 2-3 bathroom homes benefit from the T-H3 (199,000 BTU). Larger homes with 3+ bathrooms or high simultaneous demand may need the T-D2 or multiple units in cascade. We provide free load calculations based on your specific fixtures and usage patterns.
How much can I save with a Takagi tankless water heater?
Vancouver homeowners typically save 30-40% on water heating costs compared to tank water heaters. For a family spending $400-$600 annually on water heating, that's $120-$240 in yearly savings. Takagi's high efficiency (0.95-0.96 UEF) and on-demand operation eliminate standby losses, maximizing energy savings over the unit's 20+ year lifespan.
What maintenance does a Takagi require?
Takagi recommends annual professional maintenance including heat exchanger flushing (descaling if needed), burner inspection, and filter cleaning. Vancouver's soft water means descaling is typically needed every 2-3 years rather than annually. Most maintenance visits take 60-90 minutes. We offer annual maintenance plans starting at $189/year with priority scheduling and extended warranty options.
Can Takagi handle Vancouver's cold winters?
Absolutely! Takagi tankless water heaters are designed for cold climates and perform excellently in Vancouver. The units include built-in freeze protection down to -22°F (-30°C) and maintain consistent hot water output even when incoming water temperatures drop in winter. The copper heat exchanger efficiently handles temperature variations without performance degradation.
What's covered under the Takagi warranty?
Takagi provides a 10-year warranty on the heat exchanger (the most expensive component), 5 years on parts, and 1 year on labor when professionally installed. Extended warranties up to 15 years are available for additional coverage. Warranty must be registered within 30 days of installation, which we handle automatically for all our customers.
