Tankless Water Heaters Installed by DRF
When replacing water heaters for residential use, homeowners have two basic options–traditional tank water heaters or high efficiency tankless units. But it can be difficult to know which is right for you. Thankfully, DRF is your hot water expert. We’ll help you make the right decision and our experienced tankless water heater installers will have the work done quickly and efficiently.
Why Go Tankless?
Tankless water heaters provide an endless supply of hot water on demand. They offer hot water in a 70-degree temperature range (from 70°F to 140°F) and have a maximum flow rate of 5.1 gallons per minute. What’s more, they’re more energy efficient than tank water heaters, because they don’t continuously heat and reheat water. And unlike tank water heaters, tankless heaters are small in size and take up less space. In fact, they are wall-mounted, which means they are less susceptible to flood damage.
Is a Tankless Water Heater Right for You?
When making the decision between tank and tankless water heaters, homeowners should ask themselves a few questions:
- Does your home run out of hot water a lot?
If the hot water runs out a lot, that could be a sign that a tankless water heater is right for your home. While traditional tank water heaters offer a finite amount of hot water before needing to refill, tankless water heaters provide an endless supply of hot water.
- Are you interested in lowering your energy bills?
Because tankless water heaters use less energy to heat water than tank water heaters, homeowners can expect to see their electric bills go down after installing a tankless water heater. In fact, the only appliance in homes that uses more energy than a tank water heater is the HVAC system. Making the switch to tankless can offer big cost savings.
- What is your budget?
While tankless water heaters cost a bit more than tank water heaters, they do have a much longer lifespan and can offer a better long-term value. If you have a bigger budget up front, it can be optimal to choose a tankless water heater–which can last at least 15 years–rather than a tank water heater, which offers a typical lifespan of about six years.
