water bill. That savings comes from eliminating the standby losses
energy lost from warmed water continuously sitting in a tank. And, since water
heating accounts for about 15 percent of the average Canadian energy budget,
this can be a significant loss.
Tankless water heaters provide hot water at a preset temperature when needed
without storage, thereby reducing or eliminating standby losses. Tankless water
heaters can be used for supplementary heat, such as a booster to a solar hot
water system, or to meet all hot water needs.
Tankless gas water heaters have a, gas, or propane heating device that is
activated by the flow of the water. Once started, the water heater provides a
steady supply of hot water. The maximum flow rate at a desired temperature will
be determined by the capacity of the tankless heater you choose. Gas
tankless water heaters usually have larger capacities than the electric tankless
water heaters.
Large units made for whole house water heating are located centrally in the home
while, in point-of-use applications, the water heater usually sits in a utility
closet or under a kitchen or bathroom sink.
More on tankless units.
Tankless water heaters are rated by the maximum flow rate at which a desired
temperature rise is met. Special features may allow the user to set the delivery
temperature. Efficiency is higher than an equivalent tank type water heater
because standby losses are virtually eliminated. Electric tankless water heaters
require a relatively high electric power draw because water must be heated
quickly to the desired temperature. Residential gas models are available that
can heat more than five gallons per minute by 60°F, generally more than enough
for two showers to be run simultaneously. Whole house electric units typically
have a capacity closer to three gallons per minute. In Toronto tankless water
heaters installed. If you require info call 905 403 9914.

A.1 For the most part Canadians use a holding tank heater to provide hot water in their home. Storage tank water heaters keeps water hot 24/7. While a tankless does not store the hot water. Tankless only heat the (water) you need .
A2. Tankless water heaters work much different
than conventual storage type water heaters.
For example, when you turn your tap on this tell the heater to turn on. The gas
burner will come on and instantaneously heat the water you need. The time it
takes to get hot water is related to the distance the hot water has to travel
from the water heater to where hot water is needed.
A3.Since a tankless water heater
comes on when you open a (hot water) tap and turns off when you close the faucet,
the energy that is used is only for the hot water that is needed. Because there
is no storage tank of water, and no constant heating and reheating of stored
water, you’re not losing energy heating water when you don’t need it, These
energy savings translates to dollar savings for you and reduced impact on our
environment. Since a tankless water heater heats the water as you use it, you
can have an endless supply of hot water, Of course this will depend on properly
sizing the water heater.
A4. Depending on the model tankless water
heater you buy, and the size tank you have now, and if it runs on gas or
electricity, you could save from 6% to 70% off your water heating bill. How ?
Most homes use hot water for a total around one hour per day, although they
usually keep 40 or 50 gallons some times even more within a 24 hour a day.
Having a hot water system that eliminates the storage and heats water only as
you use it can greatly reduce your energy usage.
A5. Because storage tank heaters store larger amounts of water, when that water in the tank is used up your shower goes cold and you have to wait for the heater to heat the water back up recover time. Since a tankless water heater heats up the water as it passes through the heater, you will never run out of hot water, That is if you size your flow rate properly.
A6.
The advantages of having a tankless water heater in your home is many. A side
from the money savings, endless hot water systems smaller impact on the
environment, a tankless water heater:
Tankless are very small and take up less floor space than the storage type
heaters.
The design of the tankless has replaceable parts, such as copper aluminum and
stainless steel. With proper maintenance and care this water heater could last a
lifetime.
They are totally recyclable so when the system has finished its life cycle it
does not have to become landfill.
They Will not develop a corrosive leak like a storage tank water heater, saving
you from expensive water damage in your home.
although A tankless water heater can leak if it is exposed to freezing
temperatures or has a manufacturing defect.
These units will keep its efficiency throughout the lifetime of the unit.
Storage tank water heaters decrease in efficiency due to mineral build-up inside
the holding tank. This is because a storage tank water heater store hot water,
giving those minerals a chance to settle out and bake from the heat onto the
wall of the tanks.
A7. If you buy the right( tankless heater) for you needs you will never run out of hot water. Tankless water heaters function at a variety of temperatures that you can choose, and they can produce hot water at the same flow rate as your standard shower provides now..
A8. . You must choose the proper model to suit your home’s hot water needs, which is based upon the maximum flow of hot water you need at any one time If you do this the answer is yes We sell (tankless water heaters) that are capable of handling one shower at a time and others that can sustain a maximum of two or trhee showers operating at the same time. M4W
A9. Since tankless water heaters do
not store hot water, minerals have less of an opportunity to settle out of the
water column and build up inside the heat exchanger. Additionally, the flow of
hot water through the coiled heat exchanger flushes the product each time hot
water is used. The use of a water softener is fine with a tankless water heater,
and is recommended if you commonly experience hard water problems in your home.

A10. Because this type of water heater heats the water as you use it, the volume of hot water that it can deliver is directly correlated to the amount of its gas input. The bigger the burners in the unit, the larger the volume of hot water it will deliver. Now a days tankless water heaters come in many sizes to suit most homes needs. Even if you need to operate more than one showers at a time, the tankless water heater can keep up the demand for hot water.M4J
A11. You need to choose the model that can deliver the total volume of hot water to meet your family needs. The best method for sizing these type of water heaters is to know how many showers each model can run simultaneously. We have models that can run either one or two showers at a time. And remember, a (tankless water heater) can deliver endless hot water, shower after shower. Call our office, we would be happy to help you identify the proper model required for your home. M4B
A12.Since tankless water heaters provide an endless supply of water, you can fill a tub of any size. It is only a question of time, meaning that our larger units can fill a tub faster than smaller units. Please keep in mind that some tubs require water at higher flow rates, so it may be necessary to limit the flow so that the tankless water heater can adequately heat the water that is being called for. M4C
A13.Absolutely not. In Europe,
where the cost of energy is more expensive than here in Canada, they have been
using (tankless) water heaters for more than75 years. Bosch Water Heating has been
selling and supporting tankless water heaters in the North America since 1979.
However, most are just learning of this amazing technology and
its energy benefits.
