Expert Tankless Water Heaters for Twin Cities Homeowners
Tankless Water Heaters for Twin Cities Homes
Northern Benjamin Franklin installs and services tankless water heaters across Minneapolis, St. Paul and the surrounding metro. A tankless unit heats water as it flows, so it does not run out mid-shower and it is not paying to keep a tank hot while the house is empty.

Know This Before You Switch
Sizing matters more than with a tank, because the unit has to keep up with your peak demand against cold Minnesota inlet water. Some homes need gas line, venting or electrical work to support one, and rebates are often available.
We check all of that before quoting, so the number you get is the number for your house.

Pick Your Type
Each option below supports different needs.
Gas tankless
The stronger performer through a Minnesota winter, when incoming water is cold and demand is highest. Suits larger households running more than one fixture at once.
Electric tankless
Compact, simpler to install and cheaper upfront. Best matched to smaller applications, an addition, or a single point of use rather than a whole busy house.

Signs You Need This Service
Don't wait for a failure. Watch for these critical warning signs that your plumbing system is struggling.
Hot water runs out mid-shower
A tank holds a fixed amount. Once the household outgrows it, you are rationing showers around each other. Tankless heats on demand, so it does not run dry.
You are heating water nobody uses
A tank keeps 40 to 50 gallons hot around the clock whether you are home or not. That standby loss shows up on every bill.
The tank is crowding the space
A tankless unit mounts on the wall and gives back the floor, which matters in a tight utility room or a basement you would rather finish.
Your tank is near the end
Ten to fifteen years is a typical tank life. If yours is close, replacing it is the natural moment to decide whether tankless suits the house better.
Rusty water or a damp floor
Discoloured hot water or moisture around the base means the tank is corroding. That failure ends with a wet basement, not a gradual decline.
The cabin sits empty for weeks
Seasonal properties pay to keep a tank hot for nobody. On-demand heating fits an intermittent schedule far better.
