What's the difference between a tankless water heater and a tankless water heater? 

Tankless water heaters are becoming increasingly popular because they save money and space. Tankless water heaters are also quite convenient. They can be installed in places where you wouldn't have room for a tank.

However, there are still some people who prefer using tank water heaters over their tankless counterparts. They argue that tankless heaters don't last as long as tanks do and that tanked heaters produce more hot water than the tankless models.

This article looks into the differences between tank and tankless water heaters. It also explains why you should choose one over the other

Tank Water Heaters

• Installation and Maintenance: These models are easy to install. Estimates give storage tank water heaters about 10 to 15 years per unit. They also need to be flushed yearly to remove any buildup that can contribute to dirty water and even higher operating costs.

• Cost:Traditional hot water heaters aren't as expensive to install or replace as tankless models, but they do have higher ongoing costs because they're always running and tend to wear out faster.

• Efficiency: Conventional storage water heaters are always running so that the stored water is always hot and ready. So while it's great to have a supply of hot water at the ready, it does come at the cost of slightly higher energy bills.
• Convenience: These models store hot water so you won't have to wait for your shower to get hot. The only downside is, once you've used up all the preheated water, it's gone until the tank can refill and reheat.

Tankless Water Heaters

• Installation and Maintenance: Tankless hot water heaters were not only designed to be more efficient, but more durable and effective as well. You can expect for a tankless water heater to last for up to 20 years. It will also come with a 10-year warranty and require very little maintenance in its lifetime.
• Cost: Tankless models do come with a heftier initial price tag, but they can also reduce your energy bills by around 60%. With that in mind, we'll call this one a tie.
• Efficiency: These models were designed with efficiency in mind. Since tankless water heaters don't have the ability to store water, the flash-heating technology only works when you turn your faucets on "hot" so they won't constantly be running.
• Convenience: Tankless water heaters aren't built to store hot water, but rather, heat it on demand. This gives you an endless supply of hot water which definitely comes in handy when you have a large family or want to take a long shower and run the dishwasher at the same time!

In conclusion，When deciding on what type of water heater is best for you, it is important to consider your budget and your daily usage.
