Frequently Asked Questions About Tankless Heaters

What are Tankless Water Heaters?
Tankless (or Instantaneous) Water Heaters supply hot water to individual fixtures only as needed, and they have been widely used in Europe and Japan for many years.  Most small units are electric, have a very small storage tank (despite the name), and are good for servicing individual fixtures like dishwashers.  Larger units are typically gas-fired and have enough capacity to supply water to an entire home or apartment.

 

What are the benefits of Tankless Water Heaters?
Tankless Water Heaters conserve energy relative to Storage Tank Heaters because there is no large storage tank full of water that needs to be maintained at a pre-set temperature.  Tankless Water Heaters only heat water up on an as-needed basis.  Also, Tankless Water Heaters do not require a large dedicated space.  Most fit in small spaces near the individual fixtures they service.  Another advantage of Tankless Water Heaters is that they are great for small apartments, condominiums or townhomes where space is at a premium.
