If you’re somebody that loves long relaxing showers or is having troubles with your water heater not meeting the demand of your household, you may consider upgrading to a tankless (on-demand) water heater.
A standard 40 gallon water heater can run out in just 20 minutes of shower time. This leaves you with cold water to shower with and wash your clothes and dishes with. For larger families and households, this means that after one or two people shower, the hot water will be gone and you have to wait for the water heater to fill back up before someone else showers or before you do dishes or laundry. There are few things more disappointing than expecting a nice warm shower and ending up with ice cold water from your shower head.
Luckily, there is a way around this and that's the tankless (on-demand) water heater.
A tankless water heater is more efficient than a regular water heater because rather than filling a large tank with hot water that’s waiting to be used, it is a wall-mounted unit that heats water as it is used. This means as much hot water as your heart desires, on demand.
