About Empire Tankless

We're the Inland Empire's tankless water heater specialist. Not a general plumbing shop with a tankless sideline — every job we run is handled by a plumber who works on tankless every day.

Empire Tankless was built around a specific gap in the Inland Empire market: homeowners ready to upgrade to tankless deserve a contractor who actually specializes in tankless. The IE has plenty of capable plumbers, but very few who focus their week on one thing. The result is the difference you feel — clean installs, fast repairs, and honest recommendations on brand, sizing, and recirculation.

Our brand story

Empire Tankless partners with local Inland Empire plumbers who focus exclusively on tankless heater work. We offer fast, free virtual estimates, 24/7 booking, and a wide range of resources for homeowners thinking about the switch to tankless.

Our goal is simple: be the most useful tankless resource in the IE. That means honest answers, real pricing, and real tradeoff conversations — not marketing fluff. We write the guides, do the research, and run the jobs ourselves.

Every plumbing partner we work with follows the Total Tankless ethos: tankless-only focus, honest sizing, transparent pricing, and warranty-compliant maintenance.
