Tankless Instant Hot Water Heaters
There have been many recent advances in the technology of hot water heaters. Many homeowners have turned to the newest and most efficient technology of instant hot water heaters. Instant hot water heaters, also known as tankless water heaters, have the ability to heat the water without having it stored. With no tank involved in the system, these heaters do not waste energy on allowing a tank full of water to get cold and having to re-heat it once it is needed. Titan is a company that offers several models of instant hot water heaters that are tankless. There are many types of heaters that are designed to heat the water for the whole house or there are many units that are designed specifically for one appliance or faucet in the home.
Before looking into the many heaters that Titan has to offer, a consumer should first decide what he or she is trying to accomplish with the hot water heater. If the tankless heater will be replacing the home’s gas or electrical heater that is already installed, the consumer should be sure he or she purchases a unit capable of heating the water in the whole house. A consumer may also just be interested in purchasing a small tankless unit to heat the water for a specific appliance. Since tankless units can save a lot of energy, it can be economically beneficial for some homeowners to have small tankless heaters attached to the clothes washer or dishwasher in their home. This heater is designed to only take in and heat water when the appliance is running. Therefore, no energy is used by the heater when the hot water is not being used by the specific appliance. Using a hot water heater in this way can save homeowners money on the power bill.
A consumer who is interested in a Titan tankless water heater for the heated water in the whole house may save up to $3,000 on their electrical payments over ten years. Unlike gas or electrical water heaters that feature storage tanks, a tankless unit does not constantly run to keep a reserve of hot water in the tank. Therefore, electricity or gas power is not constantly needed for the water heater to stay on. When a tap or faucet inside the home asks for hot water, tankless heaters are then automatically switched on to start heating water. The cold water is taken into the tank and is heated with a gas or electrical source. It is then distributed wherever it is needed. The elimination of the storage tank also eliminates the presence of excess hot water that can become cold again. It prevents a hot water heater from having to do its job twice because there is no standing water to get cold in a tank.
There are many types of instant hot water heaters available on the market from companies such as Titan. Tankless water heaters can be small and only accommodate a single appliance or can be large and accommodate multiple faucets in the whole house. These heaters are known to be energy efficient and quick at delivering hot water to the home.
