Tank water heaters or demand water heaters are used in the majority of homes, but more and more homeowners are upgrading to tankless water heaters because of their many benefits.

While conventional water heaters store dozens of gallons of hot water at a steady temperature for when you need it, tankless options heat the water directly as it flows through your pipes. The plumbers at Bryant Air Conditioning, Heating, Electrical & Plumbing are here to help homeowners in Lincoln, NE, find the right water heater replacements for their hot water needs. Their plumbing specialists believe tankless water heaters are ideal for several reasons. 

If you need a water heater replacement, consider these advantages of installing a tankless/demand model:

• Energy Efficiency: The biggest benefit of a tankless water heater is its energy-saving capability. By not storing water, tankless water heaters don’t waste energy by keeping that water heated until it’s needed. Most tankless water heaters are Energy Star certified, which can make a big difference in your utility costs.
• Longevity: Tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years if they’re well maintained. In comparison, tank water heaters last, on average, between eight and 10 years. While tankless models can be more costly to buy and install on the front end, they’re more cost effective in the long run.
• Size: Tankless heaters are much smaller than conventional models: They’re compact and tend to be the size of a briefcase. This means there are more places in your home where you can install yours, and it won’t take up much space.  
• Home Value: Tankless water heaters also make great water heater replacements because they’ll increase the property value of your home. It’s an attractive feature to prospective homebuyers, who will be willing to pay extra for the perk.
