Tankless or instantaneous water heaters are demand type heaters which provide hot water as and when needed. Over the years, these water heaters’ popularity has been on the increase.
Difference between a tankless and storage water heater
Tankless water heaters do not typically come with a storage tank and hence they supply hot water directly. One of the main benefits of these types of heaters is that unlike storage heaters, we need not waste our time waiting for the water to get filled up in the tank. Accordingly it ensures a steady flow of hot water.
Installing separate tankless heaters
Characteristically, tankless water heaters can supply hot water at a rate of 7.6–15.2 liters per minute. Gas burner tankless water heaters generate greater flow of water than the ones with electric elements.
What I have noticed as a customer of this product is that its limits can be delayed when we use showers and dishwasher at the same time.
However, you can easily solve this problem by installing two or three heaters in parallel connection. This helps to meet instantaneous requirements of hot water. It is also better if you install individual instantaneous style water heaters separately for equipments like dishwasher, clothes washer etc.
Advantages of tankless water heaters
Even though this type of water heaters can cost more money than the traditional water heaters, it is advantageous for you in many aspects. A striking feature of the product is that it can last for more than twenty years.
Systematic safeguarding of your water heater can considerably lengthen the life of these heaters and can reduce loss of competence.
Its durability, reduced energy and low maintenance costs are the other benefits which make the tankless water heaters the most desirable product for any user.
A tankless water heater can save you money as it does not waste any energy like the conventional storage water heaters. If you are in look out for a durable, energy efficient water heater, then this is the right one for your home.
