Most homes throughout the Ottawa area have the conventional tank water heaters. These heaters are able to store many gallons of hot water and offer the water at a steady temperature, which means that you have hot water available when you need it. However, the tankless water heater is another smart solution for your water heating needs. It heats the water directly as you need it. Even though these tankless water heaters provide a number of different benefits, they are not perfect for every household.
The Benefits Of Tankless Water Heaters
The main advantage that most people love about the tankless water heaters is the fact that they are far more efficient. There is a significant reduction in energy consumption with a tankless water heater. By not storing water, each tankless model is going to save you energy.
Because there is less water to heat up, you are going to see a massive difference in the utility bills at the end of each month. There are also the additional benefits that we cannot overlook:
- Increased home value – If you are going to sell your home, the tankless water saving benefits are going to increase your asking price.
- Longer lifespan – If you make sure that your tankless water heater gets proper maintenance, it can last upwards of 20 years.
- Compact – When looking at a tankless water heater, it is around the size of a briefcase. This means that you have more storage space and can use more installation locations.
When Is Tankless Not An Option?
You are going to save money by using a tankless water heater – but only in the long haul. Both the installation process and the actual cost of the heater itself are higher than with the traditional water heater. You want to make sure that you get a fair and accurate quote before you proceed with the installation of a tankless water heater.
If you have a household that is far larger than the traditional household, a tankless water heater might also not be the best option for you – especially if you want to take warm showers each morning.
If you want to make sure that you get the best price on your tankless water heater and have professionals install them for you, we recommend that you call the licensed plumbing professionals at Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing Services Ottawa. They are able to help you with the installation process and can help you find the perfect unit to suit your needs.
