Tankless Water Heaters in Calgary, AB

The Secrets of the Tankless Water Heater

You’re probably so accustomed to thinking of water heaters as appliances with large water tanks that you might find visualizing a "tankless" system a bit tricky. The operation of a tankless water heater isn’t too hard to describe: as water flows through the unit, the movement activates gas burners. The burners move the heat into the water through a heat exchanger, warming up the water as it moves toward the tap. There’s no need to keep any water stored for use, since the system heats up more water whenever there’s demand for it. This is why tankless water heaters are also called "on-demand" water heaters.

Reasons a Tankless Water Heater Installation Is Beneficial

How does this type of operation help you save money and enjoy greater convenience?

• You’ll save money on heating compared to a storage tank water heater. Tank water heaters lose energy to standby heat loss, so the gas burners have to continue to turn on to reheat the water supply. A tankless water heater only consumes energy when there’s a need for hot water.
• Tankless water heaters don’t run out of hot water the way a storage tank system does. The standard water heater can have its hot water supply depleted, leaving a house with lukewarm water until a new supply can be warmed up. A tankless water heater is always ready to heat up more water as you need it.
• You can expect a longer service life from your tankless system, thanks to the lower use of energy and the lack of a tank that can wear down.
• Tankless water heaters are small, and are often attached to the wall in basements and garages.
