    What Is a Tankless Water Heater?

    A tankless water heater is a water heater that only provides hot water as needed. It is different from a regular gas heater because it does not store the water while it waits to be used. It works by being triggered when a hot water tap is turned on, signaling the cold water to begin traveling through the unit to be heated. Additionally, tankless water heaters can provide hot water at a rate of up to 11 gallons per minute, which far surpasses that of a gas water heater. This type of water heater can greatly benefit you and your family as you will receive a constant supply of hot water and you will no longer need to wait for a storage tank to fill. 

    Benefits of a Tankless Water Heater

    Whether you are washing your hands, taking a shower, doing laundry, or cooking, hot water is needed. As a homeowner, it is likely you seek to cut costs and save money on your bills anywhere you can. Luckily, with a tankless water heater, that and much more are very possible to achieve. When you have decided to make the switch to a tankless water heater, there are so many ways you and your family can benefit from this choice. A number of benefits that come with this upgrade include:

    An increase in energy efficiency 

    Saving space in your home 

    An endless supply of hot water

    A water heater that can last twice as long as a regular gas heater

    Is a Tankless Water Heater Right for My Home?

    Deciding whether a tankless water heater is suitable for your home involves considering various factors. Here are some signs that indicate a tankless water heater might be a good fit:

    High Demand for Hot Water: If your household frequently runs out of hot water due to high usage, a tankless water heater could be beneficial. These systems provide a continuous supply of hot water, ideal for families with high water usage or homes with luxury bathrooms, large soaking tubs, or body sprays in showers.

    Energy Efficiency Goals: If you're looking to reduce your energy consumption, a tankless water heater can be a more efficient option. Unlike traditional tank heaters that heat and reheat water at a pre-set temperature regardless of your needs, tankless heaters provide hot water on demand, reducing energy usage.

    Space Constraints: Tankless water heaters are much smaller than traditional units and can be installed on a wall, either inside or outside of your home depending on the climate. This can be a significant advantage if you have limited space.

    Long-Term Residence Plans: If you plan to stay in your home for many years, a tankless water heater could be a worthwhile investment. While the upfront cost is higher than traditional heaters, the longer lifespan (often 20 years or more) and energy savings can make it cost-effective in the long run.

    Desire for Instantaneous Hot Water: If you dislike waiting for hot water, a tankless system provides it almost instantly. This is particularly convenient in larger homes where the wait for hot water can be longer.

    Water Usage Patterns: Tankless water heaters are most efficient when your water usage is predictable and consistent. If your water usage is sporadic and significantly fluctuates, it might reduce the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of a tankless system.

    Quality of Water: In areas with hard water, a tankless water heater may require more maintenance, such as regular descaling, to keep it running efficiently. However, with proper maintenance, it can still be a good choice even in hard water areas.
