Tankless Water Heater Installation, SANTA ROSA, CA

Going tankless is growing in popularity, and here are some reasons you may want to take into consideration when making your decision:

The biggest reason to go tankless is they can produce an endless amount of hot water. This is a huge benefit for larger homes and families that require more hot water throughout the day.
Another benefit is that installing a tankless water heater reduces the amount of energy your home uses. This can save a considerable amount of money over the lifespan of the water heater. Tankless water heaters save on energy because they only heat water when it is needed, compared to the traditional tank, that is heating and cooling all day every day.
Installing a tankless water heater has an additional benefit of being effective and lasting a long time. They are made of commercial-grade copper or stainless steel, which can easily last up to 20 years. Water heaters come with 12-year warranties from many companies. The lifespan of this is twice as long as that of a typical tank style water heater.
The fourth benefit of tankless water heaters is that they don’t store any water. As a result, the water you use for bathing, washing your clothes, and cleaning the dishes is entirely clean and devoid of any residue that frequently accumulates in a conventional water heater.
Tankless water heating generally allows you to save a lot of space. Conventional tank style water heaters may require up to 16 square feet of floor area. On the other hand, tankless heaters are just around the size of a small suitcase.

As you can see, setting up a tankless water heater has a lot of positive results. Due to their ease of use, efficiency, and alluring energy cost advantages, they are quickly replacing traditional water heaters as the preferred option. However, there are some disadvantages to think about when it comes to switching over. Here we will discuss some of the cons:

The gas line will likely have to be upsized. Due to the volume of gas required to heat water quickly, the gas line that supplies the tankless is a usually a minimum of ¾". Compared to a traditional tank water heater that uses a ½" line. Upsizing the gas supply adds a significant amount of cost to the installation.
Venting is not the same as a tank water heater. Most tankless water heaters are vented using 2-inch PVC piping or a concentric style, where a larger pipe is run through the roof or wall. This means the venting that is already in place for your tank water heater can't be reused.
Tankless water heaters have a longer lifespan and a longer warranty than a conventional tank water heater. However, this lifespan and warranty is greatly reduced if it is not properly maintained. Once a year, the tankless is required to be flushed with a descaling solution to stop the build up of minerals in the heat exchange.
The fourth disadvantage to talk about is the cost. Replacing your tank with a tankless is quite a bit more expensive, and this should be taken into consideration.

Now that we have the pros and cons down, an informed decision can be made on whether to replace your tank with a tankless, or stick to your traditional tank. Here at Yorkshire Plumbing, we always make sure homeowners have the information they need to make an informed decision. If you have any questions, give us a call.

FREQUENTLY ASKED WATER HEATER QUESTIONS

Which water heater is the best?

That is a difficult question to answer and can be answered several different ways. But, here at Yorkshire Plumbing we prefer to use American Standard for a conventional tank style water heater. When it comes to tankless, either a Rinnai or Navien are the preferred choice. The reasons behind these choices are based on several factors, including experience, feedback, and communication with the companies themselves. If you would like to know more about your water heater or our recommendation, give us a call.

Do I need to maintain a water heater?

Yes, you do need to maintain your water heater. Whether it’s a tankless or a tank, you will need to perform yearly maintenance to keep the unit working at its optimal level, and prolong its lifespan.

How long should a water heater last?

While it’s very true, “they don’t make em like they used to”, you should still get between 8 and 12 years from a tank style water heater. You should expect a longer life from a tankless and depending on the installation, and usage, you can get up to and over 20 years.
