Tankless hot water heaters are being installed into more and more homes across Vancouver but tankless hot water heater installation and repairs must be done by a licensed plumber. Improper installation could leave you showering in cold water or the problem could be much worse, such as a flooded basement.
Traditional water heaters have a large tank of water that is kept hot all of the time. Although they have gotten more efficient over the years hot water tanks still use a great deal of energy to keep that volume of water hot so it is ready for you when you need it. Tankless water heaters heat the water up as you needed rather than all of the time making them more energy efficient and cheaper to run.
