A big appeal of tankless water heater systems is that they only heat water when it is needed. Traditional tank water heaters heat their water supply continuously so that it is ready for you to use when you require it. By using a tankless water heater method, which heats water only on demand, it is reported that tankless water heaters can reduce energy usage by up to 24 to 34 percent! (As compared to a typical tank heater).

Because by nature tankless water heaters use less energy to run since they do not heat water continuously, this can be beneficial to your monthly utility bills as well. It is reported that the average Denver Metro household can save potentially hundreds of dollars each year by utilizing a tankless water heater by conserving almost 27 to 50 percent more energy than typical tank heaters.

Another major advantage of Expert Tankless Water Heater Installation and Replacement Services by Ultimate Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical is that tankless water heaters have a significantly longer lifespan than their traditional counterparts. The average tankless water heater system has a lifespan of around 20 years, while traditional tank heaters have a lifespan of 10 to 15. It should be noted that the more you have your tankless water professionally maintained by Ultimate Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical, the longer it will last you.

One major draw for tankless water heater systems is that they physically save a remarkable amount of space as compared to traditional tank models. A traditional water heater tank holds anywhere from 40 to 60 gallons of water and is around 60 inches tall and 24 inches wide – that’s a ton of space required to store an appliance! Tankless water heaters on the other hand are typically around 28 inches tall, 20 inches wide, and 10 inches deep, saving you a serious amount of space for storage or other things in your basement!

While tankless water heaters still require a certain amount of maintenance to operate efficiently and last as long as possible, the maintenance required is much less intense than tank water heaters. Traditional tank heaters require professional maintenance every six months to a year, depending on where you are located in Denver Metro.
