Eco-Friendly Benefits<\/span><\/h1>\n

Tankless water heaters go by many other names, including instant-on, instantaneous, on-demand, inline, flash, continuous flow, and more. This type of hot water heater varies from standard tank-style designs in many ways, but their most describing attribute is that they only heat up water when it\u2019s needed, making them Eco-friendly in many ways. You see, since tankless water heaters do not come with a tank, they do not store water.<\/p>\n

How They Work<\/span><\/h1>\n

Instead, tankless units only heat the water when a faucet or appliance is turned on. When this happens, water travels through the flow sensors, which activate the heater to turn on. A negative feedback loop works to heat the water to the temperature requested. As water circulates around a copper heat exchanger, it heated by means of gas or electricity. Because there is no tank, the supply of water is essentially infinite. It should never run out, even if multiple people are using it.<\/p>\n

Cost Savings<\/span><\/h1>\n

Because extra energy is not wasted heating water all day long, monthly heating costs can decrease anywhere from 20 to 30 percent. And because tankless units use less energy to operate, the long-term energy savings are abundant. Not only does this degree of energy conservation save property owners money, it is better for the environment!<\/p>\n
