If you’re thinking about installing a new water heater in your home, you should take the time to properly consider the different options available on the market. Sure, tank water heaters are the most popular type in the country, and they do have a lot to offer. However, they are not always the best systems for every situation. Let’s take a look at tankless water heaters, how they work, and the benefits they can offer you.
A tankless water heater is, as you might expect, a water heater that doesn’t use a storage tank. Instead, it makes use of a heat exchanger similar to those used in boilers. When there is demand for hot water, the system turns on and starts running water through the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is heated by either a natural gas burning assembly or an electrical heating element. The water absorbs the heat as it passes through the exchanger on the way to its destination. Then, when the demand for hot water subsides, the system turns off.
The primary advantage of tankless water heaters is that they are a fair amount more energy efficient than tank water heaters. A tank water heater produces a lot of water, but it also wastes a lot of energy by heating water at all times in case it is needed. Tankless water heaters only provide hot water when necessary, which cuts down on the amount of energy spent overall. If you’re looking to cut down on your annual energy costs, and you’re okay with a slight delay before getting your hot water, a tankless water heater might be the perfect solution for you.
There are lots of pros and cons to going tankless , and ultimately it depends on what kind of home you have and how much money you want to spend. It could save you a lot of money to go tankless, while also being energy efficient to boot! If you’re curious about tankless water heaters, give one of our Denver plumbers a call.
