Tankless Water Heaters

November 5th, 2009

“The Adds say they never run out of hot water no matter how much hot water you and your family uses”, then in the same breth “they save energy.”

How do you save more energy and $$$ if you are using all the that hot water and never run out.

The problems with tankless heaters is two fold

1- No recirculation and 2 a heck of a waste of water

Here someone turns on a faucet and the heater kicks in as the water runs to an outlet. Then the water is shut off and the tankless heater shuts down and the water already heated is allowed to cool off until a demand for hot water is called for.

Now the water already paid for to be heated has cooled off and goes wastefully down the drain.

So your either having t pay for stand by losses for a tank or pay a larger water bill either way you lose
