What Is a Tankless Water Heater?

Unlike a traditional water heater that stores water and heats it within a tank, and once used up, it must refill and heat again. A tankless water heater heats the water quickly as it pulls it in from the outside. Using this method, you can’t run out of hot water like you can with a tank water heater.

Why Tankless?

While tankless water heaters have been popular in Europe for a long time, they’re just now gaining steam here in the states thanks to people becoming more environmentally conscious. Let’s look at the benefits of using a tankless system to help you decide if it’s worth exploring.

  • Tankless water heaters never run out of hot water.
  • Tankless water heaters give you instant hot water without having to wait.
  • Tankless systems take up much less space than traditional water heaters, which makes them perfect for smaller homes or apartments.
  • Tankless water heaters are more energy-efficient, which can save you more than $100 per year, depending on your water usage.

If you’re still on the fence about going tankless, call our experts and schedule an appointment to discuss the benefits in more detail.

Which Is Better? Tank Water Heater or Tankless?

Up to now, we’ve talked about the advantages that tankless systems have over traditional water heaters. But the truth is that tankless water heaters aren’t right for every situation. Some people are put off by the high upfront cost to install a tankless system, and for them, a traditional water heater is a better value. Also, tankless water heaters have difficulty serving multiple faucets at once, which can be an issue if you want a hot shower and run the dishwasher at the same time. The best way to decide which system is right for your needs is to call an expert and let them evaluate your water usage and household.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

How do tankless water heaters work?

Unlike a tank water heater, tankless units do not store and heat water inside a tank. Instead, tankless water heaters heat water instantly. When you turn the faucet, the water is heated on demand by a heat exchanger and delivered to you. This makes it less likely you will run out of hot water.

How long do tankless water heaters last?

The answer depends on a variety of factors, like the type of water heater, the model, and the size. However, the average life span for a tankless water heater is 15-20 years. The best way to maximize the life span of your unit is to maintain it properly, with annual flushing and checks.

Are tankless water heaters gas or electric?

Tankless water heaters come in a range of models, including natural gas, propane or electric models. Each type offers unique benefits, and an experienced plumber at Anderson Heating, Cooling & Plumbing can walk you through your options.

Do tankless water heaters save money?

Upgrading from a tank-style to a tankless water heater can save you money in many ways. Newer models of tankless units can be up to 14% more energy-efficient than older tank water heaters. This saves you money on your utility bills and can qualify you for rebates.
