If you are thinking about replacing your current hot water system, it is well worth considering installing a tankless water heater. These modern heaters have several advantages over systems that run off a boiler or a standalone electric hot water tank. Here we explain the three biggest advantages.
The Potential to be Installed Anywhere
Tankless water heater systems can be installed practically anywhere. All they need is a power source and a cold water feed. The way they work is that the water comes into the building passes over the heat exchanger and flows on to the faucet that is being used. There is no need for a reserve tank, which means that the unit is much smaller than a traditional tank, so they can even be fitted in a confined space.
They save Money
Because only the water you need is being heated you will save money on your fuel bills. Depending on the type chosen, you will save up to 30% on heating the water that you use.
An Endless Supply of Hot Water
With a tankless system, you never run out of hot water. With a tank, even a big one, you will occasionally end up draining the system of all of its warm water.
