Many countries across the globe are switching to energy efficient tankless
hot water heaters
An increasing number of people are also switching to electric and even gas
tankless water heaters and discovering that these systems perform as well as
their old tank based units but for a fraction of the cost.
However, before you toss your old tank based system to the curb, there are
certain requirements, which must be met before installing an electric tankless
water heater in your home. First, you must make sure that you either have the
proper electrical requirements such as voltage, amperage, and circuit breaker
already in place in your home, or have them installed. If your tankless system
is gas, then you have to make sure that you have an adequate venting system in
place to allow for air circulation.
Many people consider themselves very handy as a do-it-yourselfer, however it is
strongly suggested that you have a professional contractor install your tankless
water heater. This will also prevent any warranties from being void, as well as
ensuring that your system is installed properly.
Why should you consider a tankless water heater? Tank systems continuously heat
the water even when no water is drawn from the tank, such as when we are
sleeping or away from the home. This wasted energy is referred to as ‘standby
loses.’ This standby loses represents approximately 10% to 20% of a household's
annual water heating cost. With a tankless system, when the hot water faucet is
opened, the flow of water turns on the heating element, which heats the water as
it runs through copper tubes. When the faucet is turned off, so is the heat,
saving you money in energy cost.
Another benefit you will receive with a tankless system is that they generate
hot water at a more consistent rate, providing you with a shower or bath that
will be more reliable as far as temperature. No more will you have to
continually be turning up or down the hot water to maintain the temperature of
your shower. |
