Tank Water Heater or Tankless Water Heater?

If your water heater is nearing the end of its lifespan, it’s time to consider your options. Before choosing a new water heater, you should assess hot water consumption in each area of your home to determine whether a tankless water heater or tank water heater best suits those needs.

Tank water heaters are the most common type of water heater in residential homes. Tank water heaters preheat water and hold it for future use. They tend to be less expensive than tankless water heaters, but cost more over time due to the need to continually heat the water — even when you aren’t using it.
Tankless water heaters work the opposite way and only heat water when you need it. When you turn a hot water handle, small devices and electrical elements wired to the heating system result in the water being heated as it comes out of the faucet. Although tankless water installation services tend to be a bit more expensive, they cost less to operate over time because there is no need to continually heat the water inside the tank.
