Key factors when sizing your heater

Avoid premature wear and cold showers by reviewing these essential sizing rules.

Calculate peak simultaneous demand

Sizing is based on the highest hot water volume your home needs at any one moment, such as two showers and the washing machine running at 7:00 AM.

Account for Georgia ground water temperatures

In Henry County, incoming winter ground water can drop to 45°F–50°F. Sizing for a 70°F temperature rise guarantees steaming showers even on cold mornings.

Check gas line and electrical capacity

Tankless gas units often need a 3/4-inch gas line for high BTU demands, while electric tankless units require dedicated 100–150A panel breaker capacity.

Plan for oversized bathtubs

If your home has a 60–80 gallon Roman tub or jacuzzi, a standard 40-gallon tank will run empty before filling it. Tankless or larger storage is recommended.
