A tankless water heater is an innovative way to save space and money on your water heating bill without sacrificing comfort. The system heats the water instantly as needed. Further, heating energy is only used when there is a demand for water, such as when someone turns on a hot shower or the washing machine.
Switching from a traditional water heater to a tankless one can save energy. However, the value of your savings depends on how and when hot water is used in your household.
Our licensed and highly qualified technicians at America First Plumbing and HVAC understand the importance of these systems to your home’s safety and comfort. We are committed to delivering seamless tankless water heater installation services to homes and businesses in Los Angeles and surrounding areas.
Energy Efficiency
Tankless water heaters are more efficient than traditional water heaters because they heat water on demand, eliminating standby energy losses.
A tankless water heater can be up to 35% more energy-efficient than a conventional one.
Tankless water heaters do not lose energy when switched off, unlike traditional heaters that keep warm water in storage tanks. It can also achieve a thermal efficiency of 99%, meaning 99% of the energy used to warm water comes out as heat.
Lower Maintenance Needs
Conventional water heaters require frequent maintenance every 6 months to a year, depending on the type of water in your area. For instance, you must flush the tanks to remove mineral and sediment build-up.
A tankless water heater doesn’t accumulate large volumes of mineral and sediment build-up as the water moves through the heating elements rather than settling in a holding tank. The on-demand heater is less prone to mechanical failure and breakdown, saving you money on repairs over its lifespan.
Benefits of a Tankless Water Heater
A tankless water heater is also known as an on-demand water heater, an innovative system that heats water at the time of need. Tankless water heaters are increasingly becoming popular for replacements and new installations due to their numerous benefits.
Here are some of the benefits of owning a tankless water heater:
Saves Space
Tankless water heaters are much smaller than traditional water heaters designed with a tank that holds heated water. The compact design gives you more flexibility on where to place the water heater.
If you’re planning an installation in a new construction, there is versatility of where to install it. For an existing home, the heater’s smaller size opens up more space for storage and other uses.
Longer Lifespan
Tankless water heaters can last up to 20 years, while the average lifespan of a traditional water heater is 8 to 12 years. Some reasons behind a longer lifespan include less wear and tear and lack of storage tanks. Tankless water heaters have no storage tank that can rust or leak, which helps them last longer.
How Does a Tankless Water Heater Work?
A tankless water heater does not have a bulky storage tank that holds water. Instead, water is heated as it flows through the system. Here’s how it works:
Here’s how it works:
- Instant Heating: As the water flows through the inlet, it activates the gas burner or the electric heating element, instantly heating the water through the piping system.
- Energy Savings: When you turn off the tap, the system shuts, eliminating standby heat loss associated with the traditional tank system.
- Reliable Supply of Hot Water: The system has no tank, so you’ll enjoy a continuous supply of hot water.
