Demand More, Go Tankless
Sometimes going without is better. When replacing your current water heating system with a new one, one of the most common questions we have is about tankless water heaters, or On-Demand Water Heaters. Costs of tankless water heaters aren’t really that much more than the cost of a traditional tanked water heater model. The real difference is the speed in which you get your hot water.
As you know, a tankless water heater instantly makes and gives you hot water at the precise moment you want it. In the process it never heats water unless you are ready for it, which means no wasted energy. But if your family runs through plenty of hot water in a day, then a traditional tank isn’t necessarily heating water for no reason. Additionally, there may be an extra requirements or costs to change your type of water heater out.
