Water heaters with tanks used to dominate the market. These days, however, tankless water heaters have become far more popular.
You may be wondering, “Should I install a tankless water heater”. In today’s post, we’re going over a few things you should know if you’re considering a tankless water heater.
Tankless water heaters save energy. Initial costs may be higher with a tankless solution but, they tend to last longer than storage water heaters and offer potential savings because they are more efficient.
Hot water is instant. After flushing the cold water from the pipes out of the faucet, tankless water heaters can provide an unending stream of hot water almost instantly. For tank heaters, the water is delivered to the tank where it’s warmed. This takes more time and isn’t as efficient. This is a distinctive advantage of tankless heaters.
Inconsistent temperatures. One of the major complaints of tankless heaters is that the temperature can be a bit inconsistent at times. This is due to the heater not being able to send hot water to multiple outlets at the same time.
Tankless water heater installs can be very worthwhile, and hopefully you learned a few things about them from this blog post. If you want to know more about installing a tankless water heater for your home, contact us to speak to one of our water heater specialists today.
