Discover the Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters

Say goodbye to bulky tanks, wasted energy, and limited hot water supply. Discover these game-changing benefits of tankless water heaters and revolutionize the way you heat water in your home.

Endless Hot Water Supply
Tankless water heaters provide continuous hot water by heating it only when needed, making them ideal for homes with high hot water demands, such as large families or homes with hot tubs or spa systems. If you're considering upgrading the size of your traditional tank, you might want to explore the advantages of a tankless hot water heater system instead.
When evaluating tankless water heaters, focus on their flow rate. As long as your household's hot water usage stays below the heater's maximum flow rate, you'll enjoy an uninterrupted supply. Generally, this means you can use as much hot water as you want in the first hour. However, keep in mind that tankless heaters don't provide instant hot water; it still takes time for hot water to travel from the unit to the faucet.

Space-Saving Design
Tankless water heaters require significantly less space for installation compared to traditional heaters, providing more room in your home or garage. These wall-mounted units don't need a bulky water tank, and some models can even be installed outdoors, freeing up valuable indoor space.

Enhanced Energy Efficiency
While the most efficient traditional gas water heaters have a 62% efficiency rating, tankless heaters operate at over 80% efficiency. Tankless units save energy by eliminating the constant heating and cooling cycle experienced by traditional tanks. Over time, tankless hot water heaters maintain their efficiency, while conventional tanks lose efficiency.
Depending on your water usage habits, you could save 30-60% on your water heating energy costs, which typically range between $150 and $400 annually.

Superior Quality and Longevity
With a lifespan of 20 to 30 years, tankless water heaters outlast traditional heaters, which usually last for 8 to 12 years. Constructed with high-quality components and materials, tankless heaters are less prone to rusting or leaking. While they cost more to install, the long-term savings can offset the initial investment.

Increased Home Resale Value
Installing a tankless water heater can boost your home's resale value, potentially covering the installation cost and more. Invest in a tankless unit for a more efficient and sustainable solution to your hot water needs.

Tankless Water Heater Installation Costs

The cost to install a tankless heater can vary greatly. We would need to put together an estimate in order to determine total cost. Total cost ranges from $2,000 to $4,500 installed.

In order to install the unit properly, your home must have the following:

  • Gas or propane and normally we have to run a dedicated gas line to the unit because tankless heaters require up to 200,000 BTUs at full fire.
  • Category-3 stainless steel or PVC venting installed. This may require us to relocate the heater to an exterior wall or outdoors.
  • Install additional piping if we need to relocate the heater.
  • Run dedicated power to the tankless heater. If there is a power outage, the tankless unit will not provide hot water. However, we can install a backup battery system.

If you are replacing an existing tankless water heater or your home is new construction and set up for a tankless unit, the installation costs drop dramatically.

Three Types of Tankless Water Heaters

Discover the various tankless water heater options available to you, each with its unique features and benefits:

1.  Non-condensing: These first-generation tankless water heaters have been widely used in Europe and Japan for decades. Known for their reliability, non-condensing units have stood the test of time with few manufacturing issues.

2. Condensing: As second-generation tankless heaters, these models feature both primary and secondary heat exchangers. By reusing the heat from the exhaust to warm the water in the secondary heat exchanger, condensing units boost efficiency levels from 92% to 94%.

3. Condensing hybrid: Originating in the United States, these third-generation tankless heaters come with a small 1-2 gallon holding tank. This tank maintains a constant supply of hot water, ensuring optimal efficiency even with minimal water usage. As a result, condensing hybrid heaters achieve a true energy factor (EF) of 0.92 to 0.96.

By upgrading to a tankless water heater, you could potentially increase your home's value and recover the installation costs through the added value.

Tankless water heaters heat water “on demand” on an as needed basis, so they do not experience the always on wear and tear as standard hot water heaters. Because of this, tankless heaters can have lifetimes twice as long as standard units. If you water is very “hard” or has a high mineral content, we recommend flushing your tankless heater regularly.

FAQs

A water heater with a storage tank keeps water hot all day, even when you're at work or asleep. On the other hand, a tankless water heater does not store hot water. It heats water when you use it.

When you turn on a sink faucet, the flow of water turns on the heater. Whether you use gas or electricity, the powerful gas burners or electrical elements will turn on, quickly heating the water as it passes through the unit.

The water heats up right away, and the length of time it takes to get hot water depends on how far it has to travel from the water heater to where it is being used. When you turn off the hot water, the burners or elements stop working. The only thing that uses energy is the hot water that is being used.

Because a tankless water heater turns on when a hot water faucet is opened and turns off when the faucet is closed, it only uses energy for the hot water that is being used. Since there is no storage of water and no constant heating and re-heating of stored water, you do not waste energy heating water when you do not need it, like when you are sleeping or not at home.

When you save energy, you save money and have less of an effect on the environment. Also, a tankless water heater heats the water as you use it, so you can have an endless supply of hot water as long as you get the right size.

Depending on the model of tankless water heater you buy, the size of your current storage tank, and whether it runs on gas or electricity, you could save anywhere from 5% to 69% on your hot water heating bill. How? Most homes only use hot water for about an hour a day, but they keep at least 40 or 50 gallons (and often more) of it hot all day, every day. Having a system that doesn't store water and only heats it when you need it can cut your energy use by a lot.

Yes. You have to choose the right model for your home's hot water needs, which are based on how much hot water you need at once. There are tankless water heaters that can handle one shower at a time and others that can handle up to two showers at the same time.
