Tankless water heaters are very popular these days. These tiny units work very efficiently. According to Kitchen Infinity, one in 10 adults in the U.S. have needed a plumber in the past 12 months. Many of these people are calling local plumbers for tankless water heater installation because they offer many benefits. Let's take a look at what five of those benefits are.

1. Energy Efficiency

Tank-style water heaters fill up with water. Then, the water heater heats all the water in the tank. Once the water cools, the tank heats it again. Homeowners constantly waste energy to heat water that they don't need yet. Tankless water heaters only heat the water you use, instantly making it more energy efficient.

2. Non-Stop Hot Water

One of the most significant benefits of tankless water heaters is that you never run out of hot water. The water heater doesn't have to store water. Instead, it instantly heats water as it passes through, meaning you won't have to worry about taking a cold shower if you're the last one to shower for the night.

3. Smaller Size

Tankless water heater installation is the perfect choice for anyone needing a space-saving design. For example, one design our team has seen is only three feet high and has a depth of nine inches. Water heaters can easily be mounted on a wall to help you save space. Property owners can easily have tankless water heaters installed in a closet or under the stairs.

4. Longer Lifespan

Water heater tanks are prone to many problems. They can rust, resulting in corrosion negatively impacting your water's safety. They're known for having sediment settle into the bottom of the tank, too. Tankless water heaters don't store water, instantly helping them last much longer. In our experience, some models can last up to 20 years if they receive proper maintenance.

5. Long-Term Savings

Tankless water heaters have a higher initial cost than water heater tanks. However, they help you save so much money in the long run. Tankless water heaters also significantly reduce utility bills. Our experts indicate that you'll save money on maintenance and long-term replacement costs, too.
