If you’re in the market for a new water heater, tankless models are bound to save you money and energy. They provide hot water only as you need it, producing much less waste and keeping bills and plumbing issues low. Here’s what you should know about tankless water heaters and their advantages. 

What Are Tankless Water Heaters?

Basic Function

Traditional heaters use gas or electricity to heat water in a tank and keep it warm until you need it. In addition to expending excess energy, these appliances also take a while to refill once the hot water runs out. Tankless heaters, on the other hand, provide hot water to your home on demand. As a result, they use much less gas and electricity, which keeps monthly bills to a minimum and helps the environment. 

Installation Details

To ensure your tankless water heater functions at its optimal capacity, you’ll need a plumbing company to install it correctly. But first, you’ll have to decide whether you want gas or electrical setup. Keep in mind that gas water heaters are typically more efficient, but your property also needs to be able to support them. Double-check building codes and restrictions to ensure that safety will not be an issue. 

Benefits 

Although the upfront cost of tankless water heaters may seem intimidating, they are usually well worth the investment. For instance, homes that use approximately 40 gallons of water per day will notice savings of up to 34%. These savings may increase to nearly 50% if you choose to install multiple tankless water heaters throughout your property. They come with generous warranties that cover replacement parts and repair services, and they have life spans of over 20 years.
