The tankless water heater is definitely the water heater of the future.<\/a> Every year, more and more homeowners and companies are opting to ditch the ol\u2019 water tank and go with an energy efficient tankless model.

There are quite a few misunderstandings surrounding tankless water heaters, however. We\u2019d like to set the record straight on a few things about tankless systems so you have some idea what to look forward to.<\/p>\n

Tankless water heaters must be professionally installed<\/b><\/h3>\n

Always trust to professionals for the installation and retro-fit work.<\/p>\n

Tankless water heaters are not \u201cinstant\u201d water heaters<\/b><\/h3>\n

These two terms, tankless<\/i> and instant<\/i>, often become tangled in the minds of homeowners. Tankless water heaters won\u2019t bring hot water to your faucets any faster than standard water heaters\u2014and sometimes they take a little bit longer. You\u2019re investing in energy efficiency and an unlimited supply of hot water, not instant delivery of hot water to the faucets.<\/p>\n

The brand matters!<\/b><\/h3>\n
