Tankless Water Heater

Save Money and Reduce Waste by Not Heating and Reheating the Same Tank of Water

Endless hot water — never take another cold shower again! With a tankless water heater you will never be limited to a fixed pre-heated amount of hot water. Because tankless water heaters heat water as needed. You’ll enjoy hot water when you want it, for as long as you need it. Take a shower, do laundry and wash dishes all at the same time! With tankless water heaters, you’ll enjoy energy savings, better performance, extended life, fresh water, space savings and more capacity than traditional “tanked” water heaters.

You may be throwing away hundreds of dollars per year, if you have an older water heater. The Early models don’t perform near as well as the newer models sold today. Since heating your water is the largest energy user in your home, besides heating and cooling, a new energy-efficient water heater can really make a big difference in your monthly energy bills.

Pros:

• Saves money in the long run – According to Energy.gov, “For homes that use 41 gallons or less of hot water daily, demand (or tankless) water heaters can be 24%–34% more energy efficient than conventional storage tank water heaters.”
• Doesn’t take up much space – They are small and can be installed in more places—even outside on a wall.
• Lives longer – Lasts 20+ years. Almost double a traditional water heater’s life.
• Delivers hot water on demand – Provides two to three gallons of hot water per minute on demand.

Cons:

• Higher initial cost – Costs $2800 to $4500 installed (depends on the model and who you get it from).
• Retrofitting adds to upfront cost – Replacing a traditional water heater with a tankless system is more complicated. So that increases the installation cost even further.
