What is a tankless hot water heater?
Whenever a hot water tap is opened anywhere in your home, the tankless heater can detect water flow with a sensing device. This water flow triggers cold water to travel through the tankless heater, where either a gas burner or an electric element heats the water. The hot water then travels to the open tap. When the tap is closed, the tankless heater senses the water is no longer running and shuts off the heating element. With this on-demand heating mechanism, tankless hot water heaters are a very effective and energy-efficient solution for homeowners.
Consider replacing your traditional hot water heater with a tankless solution.
Although tankless heaters can be an expensive alternative, homeowners enjoy several benefits when they make the switch:
- Save money on energy costs
- “Limitless” supply of hot water
- Longevity of tankless heaters to ensure effectiveness for many more years to come
- Smaller device that takes up less space in your home
You need a professional to install your Tankless Hot Water Heater
Although you may be tempted to install your new tankless heater on your own because the mechanism seems straightforward, this is not a job for an amateur. In addition to ensuring your tankless heater is the proper model and size for your home, a licensed professional will make sure the home’s existing gas line, gas meter, and piping are appropriately sized to fit the tank.
If a tankless hot water heater is not installed properly by a professional, the homeowner risks dangerous consequences such as a gas leak or electrical fire in the home. While DIY installations may seem cost-effective, the potential safety risks outweigh any potential savings.
