You likely rely on your
water heater
every day. With its frequency of use and upfront expense, you want to trust that the appliance is well made and will last you for years to come. But just how many years should a water heater last? The
lifespan of a tankless water heater
can reach 20 years! Before installing a
tankless water heater
in your home, learn more about how they operate and how you can increase the life expectancy of your system.
Tankless water heaters come in electric and gas models, which you can select depending on your property’s needs. Within the water heater, water is heated while it moves through the pipe to where it’s needed; its quantity isn’t limited to a tank’s capacity as it is in a traditional water heater. A typical tankless water heater can heat between 2 to 5 gallons of water per minute with no wait time. One thing to keep in mind is the flow rate. If you live in a large property with the potential for multiple people to use the system simultaneously, a single tankless water heater may not be able to produce the amount of hot water you need at that moment on demand. The last thing you want to do is overwork the appliance and hinder its longevity. Consider installing more than one tankless water heater based on your needs.
Like all appliances, increasing the life expectancy of your tankless water heater comes down to how much effort you put into it. The installation process is technical, and because of the machine’s upfront cost, professional installation is always recommended. A mistake early on can create ongoing problems and more frequent repairs down the road. Furthermore, should you run into any issues, only trust professionals familiar with tankless water heaters to inspect and repair your system. Lastly, keep in mind that annual maintenance can help catch potential issues before they grow into an unexpected disaster.
