Tankless Water Heaters
--Understanding When to Choose a Tankless Water Heater and When to Stay with a Classic--
MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- "Going green" is the hottest trend in home renovations, but after fixing leaky pipes and adding low-flow shower heads, many families aren't sure what to do next. One money-saving option is to replace old water heaters with new tankless water heaters – which can be 24% to 34% more energy efficient than tank-style water heaters if your home uses 41 gallons or less of hot water each day.
For consumers considering a tankless water heater, it's important to know that while there are many benefits, they're not for everyone. Which is why ARS/Rescue Rooter®, a privately held, nationwide provider of air conditioning, heating and plumbing, is offering homeowners information on the pros and cons of going tankless.
Pros
- Energy efficiency/reducing monthly energy costs
- Hot water on demand
- Space saving
- Opportunity to qualify for a federal tax credit
Cons
- Higher up-front costs than tank-style water heaters
- One tankless hot water heater may not provide enough hot water for large families performing multiple tasks simultaneously
- May require changes to current venting and gas lines
