There

Hot
Water for Everyone
The
number one benefit of having a tankless water heaters is that no one
in your family will be left with cold water. Tankless water heaters
heat on demand only. There is no storage of water like a traditional
water heater, so no matter if you want to take a 45-minute shower or
bath, or ten people in your home who need to shower, no one will be
left out, everyone will have the hot shower or bath that they
deserve.

Traditional
water heaters store water. As water heaters age, they become dirty
and rusty on the inside where the water is stored, which means the
water you shower or bathe in comes from a container that is less than
clean. This isn't true with tankless hot water heaters, instead the
water is heated as it passes through the unit, which provides cleaner
water that has never been stored for your hygiene needs.
kWIQly - this is also true for pathogens like Legionella which establish and grow in stagnant warm water - if inhaled in a shower or as a spray it's a killer !
Ditch
the Bulky Water Heater
Due
to its design, traditional water heaters can only be placed in a
handful of places in a home. Often times, the placement of these
water heaters can be inconvenient or an eyesore. However, with
tankless water heaters you have the convenience of placing the
compact heater nearly anywhere, which frees up space in your home for
more important things.
Cutting
Energy Costs
Since
tankless water heaters do not require constant heating and reheating,
they cost less to use. (And help the environment - kWIQly ) The amount of money you can save varies on how
much energy you currently use to heat water, but no matter what your
cost is, installing a tankless water heater will decrease it.
Less
Fuss
Tankless
water heaters require very little maintenance, due to their design,
and are much more durable than traditional water heaters, which means
it will last longer than its counterpart.
Tankless
water heaters add both luxury and maintenance benefits to your home.
Simply install a tankless water heater and forget about all the
things you used to worry about with your traditional water heater.
So there we have it - a little wiser thanks to Kyle before you move on don't forget to ask any tough questions in the comments or add views of your own - for example who could debate "The things that are wrong with tankless ! "
