The Advantages of Tankless Water Heaters

Mark J. Biel • March 2, 2021

Water heaters make your home much more comfortable by providing a steady stream of hot water for various uses, from showering and doing the laundry to washing the dishes and running the dishwasher. Thankfully, due to advancements in water heating technology, tankless or on-demand water heaters have made our lives even easier and our homes more efficient. Compared to storage tank water heaters, a tankless water heater offers many benefits that make it a no-brainer addition to your home.

In this post, the top heating and  air conditioning repair  expert, R.A. Biel Plumbing & Heating, Inc., shares the advantages of installing tankless water heaters in your home.

Say Goodbye to Cold Showers

You may have experienced a time when you were showering and the hot water was suddenly replaced by an ice-cold stream. The device that’s responsible for delivering hot water through your showerhead is your water heater. There are normal instances where there are cold bursts of water, but it’s another story if your water heater can’t maintain a constant water temperature. This is an indicator that your water heater is running into issues. This will never be the case when using a tankless water heater.

Advantages of Tankless Water Heaters:

  • Energy efficiency.  While tankless water heaters cost more upfront, your  heating repair  expert will tell you that you’ll save more in the long run due to their superior energy efficiency. A tankless heater will actually fit seamlessly into your home since it takes up less space.
  • Longer lifespan.  A storage tank heater can last anywhere from 10 to 15 years, while tankless water heaters can last twice that long, as long as they’re maintained properly and used with care.
  • Lower utility costs.  If you use less than 41 gallons of hot water per day, then you’ll definitely feel the benefits of using tankless water heaters. A tankless heater doesn’t need to maintain the temperature of a large tank of water, resulting in lower energy usage. It can also be installed in each heater outlet that it’s needed, resulting in greater efficiency.
