Waller

The #1 Tankless Experts

As Waller grows, so does the need for efficient home technology. We help local residents install suitcase-sized water heaters that offer a massive upgrade in performance over old-fashioned bulky tanks.

Called on Sunday when we found a leak with our system. Monday morning they called and sent Sam on Tuesday, New Year’s Eve. Sam had to replumb the connection to the hot water as the original installation wasn’t done properly. He also replaced the o rings inside the unit, flushed it and got us working again. Sam is the best and stuck with it to get it done properly. Thank YOU.

We Keep the Hot Water Flowing in Waller County

From the bustling grounds of the Waller County Fair to the historic streets of nearby Hempstead, we understand that Waller residents value reliability and efficiency in their homes. Whether you are a student at Prairie View A&M University or a long-time homeowner near Waller City Hall, you shouldn’t have to worry about your hot water cutting out mid-shower.

At Hot Water Guys, we specialize in helping our neighbors in the Waller area transition to high-performance tankless technology. We focus on providing modern, space-saving solutions that handle the unique demands of Texas households, all while being backed by nearly 20 years of local expertise.

Why We Recommend Tankless for Waller Homes

We’ve found that the switch to tankless technology is one of the smartest upgrades you can make for your home's comfort and value.

  • Unlimited Hot Water: We ensure your system is sized to provide continuous hot water, meaning you can run the dishwasher and shower at the same time without losing temperature.
  • Space Savings: Waller homes often feature compact utility areas. Our units are wall-mounted and take up 75% less space than traditional 50-gallon tanks.
  • Energy Efficiency: We help you cut waste by only heating water when you need it. These systems can be 8% to 34% more energy-efficient than traditional heaters.
  • Cleaner Water: Traditional tanks are prone to sediment buildup and corrosion over time. Our tankless systems provide cleaner water directly from the source.

2025 Financial Incentives for Waller Residents

Upgrading your home’s efficiency is more affordable than ever in 2025. We help you navigate specific federal and local savings to maximize your return on investment.

25C Federal Tax Credit

Under the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit program, you can claim a federal tax credit of 30% of the project cost, up to $600, for qualifying ENERGY STAR® certified tankless gas water heaters through December 31, 2025.

CenterPoint Energy Rebates

If your home is served by CenterPoint Energy in the Waller area, you may be eligible for direct cash-back rebates:

  • $350 Rebate: For qualifying units with a Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) of .87 or greater.

Local Knowledge: Permitting and Compliance

We handle the technical details and administrative requirements so you can enjoy peace of mind. The City of Waller requires permits for all plumbing and mechanical installations to ensure they meet modern safety codes.

  • Professional Requirement: Our installations are led by licensed professionals as required by the state. The City of Waller specifically requires all contractors to be registered with the city and provide proof of insurance.
  • Inspections: We coordinate with the Permits & Inspections Department at Waller City Hall to ensure your system meets all local safety standards, including proper gas venting and pressure relief.

Protecting Your Unit from Hard Water

Waller County water can contain high levels of minerals like calcium and magnesium, which cause limescale buildup. If left untreated, this buildup acts as an insulator, forcing your heater to work harder and increasing your energy consumption.

To keep your system running for its full 20-year lifespan, we offer specialized maintenance including:

  • Annual Descaling: We flush your unit with a professional descaling solution to remove mineral deposits and restore flow.
  • Water Treatment: We can install water softeners or scale inhibitors to treat the water before it reaches your heater, significantly reducing maintenance needs.
