Are you wanting hot water on demand? It is a wonderful experience to have warm water almost immediately after turning on the faucet or shower. That’s the beauty of tankless water heaters, also known as demand-type water heaters – they provide a simple pleasure and can save water and energy at the same time. They provide hot water only as needed and with little to no wasted water and they don’t create the standby energy loss of the standard storage water heaters.

CONSIDER THIS

• Tankless water heaters last substantially longer, with a 20+-year lifespan – in contrast to the life expectancy of 10-15 years for storage type water heaters
• Additionally, there are replaceable parts available that can help increase the longevity of tankless water heaters
• Professional and proper installation of tankless water heaters helps maximize energy efficiencies
• As with any mechanical equipment or major appliance, regular maintenance makes a distinct difference in the operation and longevity of your system

Hope this provides a glimpse into the key benefits of tankless water heaters. From here, you can contact the experts at Marlin Services to help select the best size and model for your home or business. We can help you determine which type water heater is best for your situation. Stay comfortable!

This spring the U.S. Department of Energy mandated new efficiency standards on water heaters. This means water heaters manufactured after April 16, 2015 may have more sophisticated designs and may potentially be larger than previous models.

The new regulations require a higher energy factor (EF) rating on gas, electric, oil, and tankless water heaters. On a water heater, the energy factor (EF) indicates the overall energy efficiency, based on the amount of hot water produced per unit of fuel consumed in a typical day. The higher the EF, the more efficiently the water heater converts power into hot water while reducing losses… and the more money you save on overall energy costs.

For homeowners the good news is the new water heaters save more energy, increase performance and efficiency over the life of the system, and lower operating costs. Read more here: http://bit.ly/1bbMfs5

Ah, the age old question, “Standard Water heater or tankless?” Ok so maybe not age old, but close enough. With the housing market being what it is today, there are a lot of new homeowners, as well as old homeowners that are looking to remodel, that are inquiring about what type of water heater to use. Whether you are buying your first home or simply updating or remodeling your existing home, there are many variables to be considered in choosing the best water heater to suit your needs and save you money.

A proper working water heater should be well equipped to provide enough hot water for the number of residents in your household, at the busiest time of day, without increasing your water bill to absurd amounts.

Standard water heaters use a large tank to hold and heat your water. Cold water is fed into the bottom of the tank from your home’s water lines, where a heating element or burner heats the water in the tank from the bottom. As cold water becomes heated, it rises to the top of the tank where the heat-out pipe is located, which sends the water to your sinks and fixtures. Once all the water in the tank is brought up to the desired temperature, the heating mechanism shuts off. If you are considering using a standard water heater, keep in mind, the tank should be large enough to accommodate the number of people in your household.  A forty gallon tank will be large enough for 1 to 3, possibly 4, people but if you have a family of 6 to 8, a 75 gallon tank, or a high recovery 50 gallon tank, will be more suitable for you.

Tankless water heaters are small units, which are usually installed on the side of the house, that only heat the water as you use it. As soon as you turn on a hot water faucet, a mechanism within the device is triggered, heating the water to the temperature specified and programmed into the unit. Because the water heats up instantly, less energy is being used to heat and reheat the same water that isn’t being used. This results in more energy savings for the homeowner. Tankless water heaters are also beneficial for households that have fluctuating numbers of occupants, such as those that often have family in and out of town. Tankless water heaters are also considered to be more environmentally friendly, or “green.” Although this water heater, in particular, is typically more expensive than a standard water heater up front, it can save you money in the long run.
