Today more than ever, it seems that most people want to do all that they can to conserve energy. Did you know that conventional water heating systems are sitting there and constantly heating the water whether you need hot water at that time or not? While this is nice when we want a hot bath, it is a huge waste of energy.
The alternatives are on-demand water heater systems. They provide as much hot water as you need when you need it, and best of all, it does this without the energy waste associated with conventional water heaters.

So now that you know the benefits of going tankless, here are some other things you might want to know about them. First, there are two kinds of on-demand heaters. As you may expect, the most common model will supply enough hot water for an entire house. This is what most people use and is the most frequently recommended by plumbers. But there are also single point tankless water heaters that will supply water to a single fixture.
While tankless water heaters are very appealing, don't think that you can just rush out and buy one to replace your old energy inefficient model. Tankless water heaters usually require an electrician to connect the proper wiring to power the unit. You can't just plug them in and start using them. There are also gas models (natural of propane) which are even more highly energy-efficient than the electric models. If you should decide that a gas-powered heater is the way to go, you need to also provide a well ventilated location.
In addition to being environmentally friendly, by going tankless, you will be saving up to half on the water heating portion of your monthly utility bill and will enjoy the benefit of a device that will last several years longer, on average, than conventional heaters.
So, with all of these benefits, what are you waiting for?
