Tankless Water Heaters and
Why You Want One
Older styles of hot water heaters are becoming obsolete in the wake of the newer economic tankless water heaters available now. The older style uses a tremendous amount of energy, specifically, natural gas. It is comparable to going outside and starting your car up every 15 minutes, letting it idle for 1 minute, and then turning it off, only to repeat the process every 15 - 30 minutes. That does not make sense, and neither does continuing to use an outdated and energy wasting hot water heater.

What Are the Benefits of an Economic Tankless Water Heater?
The first and foremost benefit is that they are much more efficient than traditional style water heaters. Also, water is not wasted. It is only heated when you request it. Tankless water heaters are becoming the normal request when people are replacing existing heaters. Going green and being environmentally conscious is a necessary part of life today.

These new economic tankless water heaters are environmentally friendly. Although these tankless water heaters do run off natural gas, they use far less than traditional hot water heaters. For example, a typical home might see a natural gas bill savings of up to 50 - 60 percent over what they experienced with the older style heater.

The average life span of a traditional hot water heater is usually between 7 - 10 years. When they fail, the entire unit usually needs to be replaced. This is not the case with a tankless water heater. Average life span of a tankless water heater is around 20 years. Another benefit is that the parts on a tankless water heater are interchangeable, much like the parts in your car. If a part fails, it can be replaced at far less cost then replacing the entire unit.

How Does a Tankless Water Heater Work?
With a tankless water heater, there is no standing pilot light like there is in a traditional water heater. There is an electronic ignition that ignites only when hot water is being requested. The tankless water heater basically runs water through a series of tubes that are heated by the natural gas line. This water then goes directly to the faucet requesting it. In fact, the process works much like a radiator in a car, only in the opposite way. Where a car radiator cools the water flowing through it, the tankless water heater heats the water flowing through the tubes being heated. Very economical and very practical, and they don't waste water. The tankless water heater is the environmentally conscious choice when looking for ways to heat water in your home.

Professional Installation of aTankless Water Heater is Critical
There are many potential dangers when working with any hot water heater installation when natural gas is involved. Tankless water heaters are no different. Improper installation can result in fire, explosion, and the introduction of carbon monoxide into the home, which can be deadly. The proper installation of these new types of tankless water heaters is critical and does require expert professional installation.
