What is a tankless water heater?
Have you ever run out of hot water during a long shower or bath? A standard 40-gallon water heater can easily be depleted with a single long bath or 20-minute shower. However, a tankless water heater offers an endless supply of hot water, heating it on demand without the limitations of a tank. Whether you’re running the dishwasher or doing laundry, a tankless system ensures that you always have hot water when you need it, and it maintains a consistent temperature throughout.
How does a traditional tank water heater compare?
A tank-style water heater constantly keeps water hot in a large tank, often wasting energy by reheating the water 24/7. This process not only consumes unnecessary energy but also increases your utility bills. With a tankless system, the water is heated only when needed, meaning you’re not paying to heat water you’re not using. This energy-efficient system ensures you’re only paying for the hot water you actually consume.
Installation makes all the difference
Installing a tankless water heater is more complex than installing a traditional tank system. Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and energy savings, and it directly impacts the longevity of the unit. That’s why Jimmy Vandivier of Flowrite Plumbing has taken the extra step to become certified in both tankless water heater installation and repair, in addition to his plumbing and general contractor licenses. With this specialized knowledge, you can rest assured your new tankless system will be installed correctly, saving you time and money in the long run.
Save space with a tankless system
Tankless water heaters require significantly less space than traditional tank-style systems. While a typical tank heater may take up to 16 square feet of valuable space in your garage or closet, a tankless system is roughly the size of a carry-on suitcase and can be installed both inside or outside your home. This means more room for storage and a cleaner, more efficient home layout.
