Tankless Water Heater Services in Greater Cincinnati

What Is a Tankless Water Heater?

A tankless water heater, or an on-demand water heater, heats water for your house on demand, rather than storing heated water in a tank waiting to be used. This system can deliver a near-unlimited hot water supply and take up significantly less space than a traditional water heater. A tankless water heater is an excellent option if you have a small home and need extra space or a large family that requires a lot of hot water.

Benefits of a tankless water heater can include:

• Endless hot water
• Up to a 0.98 Uniform Energy Factor (UEF), which means 98 percent of the energy goes towards the intended purpose of heating water.
• 24 to 34 percent more energy efficient than conventional storage tank heaters when using less than 41 gallons of hot water daily.
• Don’t require standby energy. Great for vacation or second homes, which only need hot water periodically, versus standard tank heaters, which consume energy even when on standby.
• A 20+ year life expectancy is longer than the traditional tank heater’s expected 10 to 15 years.
• Components can be replaced individually, whereas tank heaters require entire replacement.

Tankless water heaters typically provide around two to five gallons of hot water per minute. Gas-powered heaters are generally more efficient and produce higher flow rates than electric ones, but models for both are available.

Tankless water systems must be sized correctly to supply enough water for simultaneous, multiple uses in large households. For example, simultaneously running a dishwasher, shower, and washing machine may push a tankless water heater to its limit. Consider installing multiple tankless water heaters to overcome this flow limit for larger homes.

On-demand water heaters cost more initially than traditional water tanks, but they have significant advantages over conventional water heaters in the right circumstances.
