Infographics - The Benefits of Tankless Water Heaters
The typical homeowner still has a traditional water heater, which stores and heats water all the time regardless of usage. Although the idea of having hot water ready and waiting may sound appealing, you may be paying a considerable amount in heating, running out of hot water, and having to wait for your tank to refill. A tankless water heater heats on demand instantly. The heating element in the system can instantly heat your water for a nice shower, a warm load of laundry, or a proper handwashing. At FitzGerald and Sons Plumbing Company, we offer a variety of water heaters, including traditional and tankless styles. Our team can help you determine the right system to provide for your home’s water needs. If you are considering going tankless, here are some benefits worth mentioning:

Save Your Space

A traditional water heater takes up a good bit of storage space in your home. A tankless system is much smaller and will not take up an entire closet’s worth of space. The tankless system is about the size of a suitcase and can be mounted easily. This could be especially important for smaller homes.

Prevent Potential Water Damage

A leaking hot water heater is a nightmare to discover. Significant damage can be done to your home in a short time. Traditional water heaters are a leading cause of property damage. When you go tankless, you will be free from this worry since water is not being stored.

Reduce Your Heating Costs

Since you are only heating what you need, you can save money on your water heating bills. Thermal heat loss is nearly eliminated because of not storing hot water. Lowering bills without sacrificing your comfort is a winning combo.

Prioritize Energy Efficiency

Tankless systems are exceptionally efficient. Choosing a tankless system is an easy way to conserve energy and care for our environment.

Enjoy a Longer Lifespan

The typical traditional water heater lasts between 8-12 years. Tankless systems generally last 20 or more years. Going tankless could be a strong long-term choice for your home.
