Tankless, done right in Lincoln
Built for the way Lincoln homes use hot water
Lincoln has grown fast — and so has the demand for dependable hot water. From the newer developments around Twelve Bridges and Lincoln Crossing to established homes near Downtown Lincoln and the active-adult community of Sun City Lincoln Hills, more homeowners are trading aging tank water heaters for modern tankless systems. It's easy to see why: growing households, larger floor plans, and back-to-back morning showers put real strain on a traditional 40- or 50-gallon tank, and Lincoln's mix of newer construction makes it a natural fit for a clean, efficient upgrade.
A tankless water heater heats water only when you need it, so you're not paying around the clock to keep a tank hot. For energy-conscious Lincoln families that means lower operating costs, endless hot water when the whole house is getting ready at once, and a compact wall-mounted unit that frees up valuable garage or utility space. At Poly Plumbing, we size, install, and replace tankless systems for Lincoln homeowners every week — plumbed cleanly and built to last.
Not sure whether to repair, replace, or upgrade? We'll give you a straight answer. Sometimes a simple water heater replacement makes the most sense; other times a tank-to-tankless conversion is the smarter long-term move for your home. Either way, you'll get an honest recommendation and an upfront written price — never pressure to buy more than you need.
Signs it may be time to replace your water heater:
- Hot water that runs out during back-to-back showers
- A tank water heater that is 8+ years old
- Rust-colored water, leaks, or pooling around the unit
- Rising energy bills from an inefficient system
- A remodel — or wanting to reclaim garage space
Our process
What's included in your Lincoln tankless installation
Every install follows the same careful, code-compliant process — so you get a system that's sized right, runs efficiently, and looks clean for years.
Right-sized recommendation
We assess your home's hot water demand, gas supply, and venting, then recommend a properly sized Navien or comparable high-efficiency unit — never an undersized system that struggles to keep up.
Clean removal & disposal
We safely disconnect, drain, and haul away your old tank or failed unit, leaving the work area clean and clear.
Gas, water & venting to code
Most tank-to-tankless conversions need upgraded gas lines, rerouted water connections, and new venting. We handle all of it to manufacturer specification and California code.
Tidy, serviceable installation
Connections are made clean and accessible, so future maintenance is simple and the finished work looks as good as it performs.
Testing & walkthrough
We test the system, confirm steady temperature and flow at the fixtures, and walk you through how your new tankless unit works before we leave.

Recent Tankless Water Heater Installation in Lincoln
A Lincoln homeowner's original tankless unit had failed and needed to be relocated and replumbed. Here's how we turned a frustrating hot-water problem into a clean, efficient, long-term fix.
The home's outdated water heater had failed, leaving the family without reliable hot water. The existing setup was poorly positioned, the water and gas connections needed to be reworked, and the old unit was taking up space without doing its job.
We installed a new high-efficiency Navien tankless water heater, relocated the unit to a better position, and rerouted the water and gas lines for a safe, code-compliant configuration. Every connection was made clean and serviceable, with proper venting throughout.
The homeowner now has endless hot water, improved energy efficiency, and a noticeably cleaner installation — plus reclaimed usable space. It's the kind of tidy, professional, long-lasting work Lincoln homeowners count on us for.

Lincoln Tankless FAQ
Tankless water heaters in Lincoln — answered
How much does a tankless water heater cost in Lincoln?
The cost of a tankless water heater in Lincoln depends on the unit you choose, your home's existing gas and venting setup, and whether the water and gas lines need to be rerouted. A straightforward tank-to-tankless conversion costs less than a job that requires relocating and replumbing the unit. We always provide a free, written estimate up front, so you'll know the exact price for your home before any work begins.
How long does installation take?
Most tankless installations in Lincoln are completed in a single day. A direct swap of an existing tankless unit can take just a few hours, while a full tank-to-tankless conversion that adds new gas, water, or venting work may take most of the day. We give you a clear timeline along with your estimate so you know what to expect.
Do you install Navien tankless water heaters?
Yes. Navien is one of the brands we install most often for Lincoln homeowners, and we also work with other leading high-efficiency manufacturers. We help you choose the right unit and capacity for your household’s hot water demand, then install it to manufacturer specification and local code.
Can you replace an existing tank water heater?
Absolutely — converting a traditional tank to a tankless system is one of our most common Lincoln projects. We safely remove and dispose of the old tank, upgrade or reroute the gas and water lines as needed, add proper venting, and leave you with a cleaner, more efficient setup that reclaims floor space.
Do tankless water heaters save money?
They can. Because a tankless unit only heats water on demand instead of keeping a full tank hot 24/7, many homeowners see lower energy use over time. Combined with a longer lifespan — often 20 years or more versus 8–12 for a tank — a quality tankless installation is a smart long-term investment for many Lincoln homes.
