What is a tankless water heater?
Tankless water heaters in Pasadena, TX use high-powered natural gas burners or electric elements to heat water as it goes through a heat exchanger. One of the big differences between the tankless and regular storage water heaters is that you don’t have to wait for the storage tank to fill up with hot water.
Once the water is turned on, it is heated, but the amount of water coming out limits the flow rate of the water. Gas-fired tankless water heaters give higher flow rates than electric tankless heaters.
On Demand Hot Water, Unlimited Hot Water
Tankless water heaters do give hot water on demand, but the amount of hot water can be exhausted if there are multiple demands on the same tank at the same time, such as if you are using a washing machine or dishwasher and take a shower.
Is a tankless water heater right for your Pasadena home or business?
Tankless water heaters can cost two to three times the amount for regular storage tank water heaters. If you choose to purchase a tankless water heater, it is best to get a qualified heating and plumbing contractor to install it. The water heater will perform more efficiently when it is installed properly.
Does a tankless water heater qualify for energy tax credits?
As of 2011, gas-fired Energy Star tankless water heaters were eligible for a tax credit, but electric tankless water heaters were not.
What are some alternatives to tankless water heaters?
A Fast Recovery Water Heater contains two heating mechanisms, one at the bottom that heats most of the water when the tank isn’t being used, and one close to the top to heat the water when the tank is being drained.
