Tankless vs. Traditional: Which Water Heater Is the Right Choice for You?
Deciding between a tankless or conventional water heater system is an important choice that affects energy efficiency, costs, and overall performance. Traditional water heaters store a large amount of water, providing a continuous supply but at the cost of higher energy consumption. On the other hand, tankless water heaters heat water on demand, offering energy savings and space efficiency. At Burkhardt Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric, we’ll help you assess your household’s hot water demands and recommend the best option for your needs.
- Tankless Water Heaters: Tankless water heaters are recognized for their energy efficiency, as they heat water only when required, ensuring a continuous supply of hot water. Their compact design saves space, and because they heat water on demand, they can help lower energy costs.
- Traditional Water Heaters: These units hold a significant amount of water in a tank and maintain its heat until it’s needed. While they may take up more space, they are typically less expensive upfront and can provide a large amount of hot water for high-demand households.
Choosing the right system depends on factors like your hot water usage, budget, and space availability. Our professional plumbing team can help you weigh your options and determine the best fit for your home or business.
The Importance of Proper Sizing in Water Heater Installation
Selecting the appropriate size is one of the key factors in maintaining the long-term efficiency and dependability of your water heater. An undersized water heater will struggle to meet your home’s or business’s hot water needs, leading to frequent shortages. On the other hand, an oversized system may result in wasted energy and higher utility bills, as it heats more water than necessary.
At Burkhardt Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric, we emphasize the importance of properly sizing your water heater. Our team considers several factors during installation, including:
