Frequently Asked Questions About Tankless Water Heaters

ARE TANKLESS WATER HEATERS WORTH THE INVESTMENT?
The initial investment of a tankless water heater is higher, but it will save you money in the long run. In addition to lower energy bills, it will also provide you with endless hot water and additional storage space.
CAN TANKLESS WATER HEATERS WORK WITH HARD WATER?
Tankless water heaters are not immune to the effects of hard water. However, the effects on tankless water heaters are minimal and time delayed.
CAN A TANKLESS WATER HEATER FILL A TUB?
Your tankless water heater’s ability to fill your tub depends on its size. A small water heater may take longer to completely fill a tub versus a larger water heater.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU FLUSH OUT A TANKLESS WATER HEATER?
Generally, tankless water heaters should be flushed once a year to maintain efficiency. However, depending on the hardness of your water, you may find it beneficial to flush out your tankless water heater two or three times a year.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR WATER TO GET HOT WITH TANKLESS WATER HEATER?
Tankless water heaters take about 15 seconds to bring water up to temperature. However, you’ll still have to wait for that water to reach your shower head or faucet.
