Although a difficult problem, Graham solved the problem with our tank less hot water heater! I highly recommend Graham and Ben Franklin plumbing.
The technician Tyler expertly identified the problem and knew exactly what to do to fix it. He gave me sound advice on caring for the unit and did not charge for the work as the water heater had been serviced by the company only 3-4 months ago.
