Do you need a new water heater?
Your water heater may be telling you something if you notice that your water isn’t as hot as it used to be. Sometimes, your water heater develops a stain on the outside or starts leaving puddles underneath it. If the last person in your family to shower complains of only having tepid water, there may be a problem with your old water heater.
Traditional tank water heaters have an average lifespan of ten to twelve years. If you haven’t had yours flushed every two years, it may not live as long as others that are well-maintained.
So how do you pick the perfect new water heater for your family?
Should You Choose a Standard Tank or Tankless Hot Water Heater?
If you need a new water heater, it’s good to know that you have lots of options. Water heaters come in different sizes and offer various features, including “vacation” modes, timers, and apps that can control settings from afar.
One of the “hottest” advancements in the plumbing industry is the tankless water heater.
Why Tankless Water Heaters Are A Great Choice
In simple terms, tankless water heaters are like magic taps that instantly provide hot water whenever you need it. Here's how they work:
No Water Storage
Unlike traditional water heaters with big tanks, tankless water heaters don't store water. Instead, they heat water “on-demand” as it flows through the unit.
Energy Efficiency
When you turn on a hot water tap or use an appliance that needs hot water (like your shower), the tankless heater kicks into action. It heats the water as it passes through, without wasting energy to keep a whole tank hot all the time.
Endless Hot Water
With tankless heaters, you'll never run out of hot water. Whether you're taking a quick shower or filling up a bathtub, it keeps delivering hot water as long as you need it. It is not dependent on what’s been heated in the tank. It heats water as it's needed.
Space-Saving
Tanks are called “tanks” for a reason. They are big and bulky, heating water and then holding it. Because of their size, many homeowners lose valuable storage space in garages, basements, and utility rooms to accommodate their tank water heaters.
Tankless heaters are compact and take up less space compared to those bulky tank-style water heaters, and can hang on a wall, freeing up valuable floor space.
Fewer Leaks
Since there's no tank to age, rust, crack, or spring leaks, the risk of water damage is lower.
Long Lifespan
Tankless water heaters have a two-times longer lifespan than traditional tank water heaters. The tankless modes last over twenty years on average, making them a solid long-term investment.
