Perks of a Tankless Water Heater Installation

Thinking About Going Tankless? Here Are the Benefits

Making changes to the home for the new year may no longer be a novel resolution, but deciding to upgrade to a tankless water heater can be beneficial. Conventional storage water heaters have long ruled the majority of American homes, and most homeowners tend to go with what’s tried and tested. However, there are many reasons why tankless water heaters continue to gain traction and are fast becoming a reliable choice for water heating. Here are the advantages of installing a tankless water heater. 

Improves Energy Efficiency and Lowers Costs

Tankless water heaters are incredibly energy-efficient and have a leg up over traditional storage tank water heaters in efficiency and lower water heating costs. Although the initial cost for installation of tankless or instantaneous water heaters is more expensive than storage water heaters, they can save homeowners money on their monthly energy bills. 

This is because tankless water heaters consume energy only when the hot water tap is turned on, unlike conventional water heaters, which continually use energy to keep the water in its storage tank hot and ready for use in case it is needed. This on-demand water heating feature creates efficiency in energy consumption that simply cannot be matched by storage-type water heaters. 

More Hot Water Supply While Taking up Less Space

Because tankless water heaters can create hot water as needed, they provide a hot water supply that is not only virtually unlimited but also extremely reliable. The days when homeowners had to put up with cold showers simply because their water heaters didn’t have enough hot water left in the tank are no longer a reality. 

Here’s another great thing about the tankless water heater - its lack of a storage tank makes it smaller, more compact, and easier to install in homes and places where space is an issue. Apartments or condos, tiny houses, older homes whose water heating systems can no longer be updated, or any home can all benefit from a tankless water heater’s more manageable size. 

Longer Life Expectancy 

Tankless water heaters have an average life expectancy of over 20 years, so it’s not difficult to see that a tankless water heater will make a worthwhile investment, considering storage water heaters last an average of 10 to 15 years. A tankless water heater's lifespan is longer than the average length of homeownership in the U.S. 

The longer life expectancy of a tankless water heater can also lead to more savings for homeowners. In addition to the lower water heating costs, fewer water heater replacements mean less money spent on the costly, time-consuming, and sometimes inconvenient scenario of replacing an existing water heater.
