If you’re still using a traditional tank type water heater, now is the time to think beyond just a device that generates hot water. Upgrading to a tankless water heater isn’t just a smart purchase, it’s a long-term investment in your home’s comfort, efficiency, and overall property value.
Here’s why Roughie Plumbing Co. recommends making the switch today.
1. Lower Energy Bills With On-Demand Heating
Conventional tank water heaters waste energy by keeping 30 to 80 gallons of water heated at all times — even when you’re not using it. This constant reheating creates “standby energy loss,” which inflates your utility bills.
Tankless water heaters operate differently. They heat water only when you need it, delivering hot water on demand. This efficient design can reduce energy usage by up to 30 percent and cut your utility costs significantly.
Homeowners typically save $100 to $300 per year, with greater savings in larger households.
2. Endless Hot Water, Whenever You Need It
Running out of hot water in the middle of a shower or while doing laundry? That’s a common frustration with tank systems. With a tankless water heater, that problem disappears.
Tankless systems provide a continuous supply of hot water, so whether you’re taking back-to-back showers or running multiple appliances, you’ll never run out.
3. Increase Your Home’s Property Value
Upgrading to a tankless water heater doesn’t just benefit your monthly bills — it also adds to the value of your home.
Energy-efficient features like tankless systems are highly attractive to modern buyers and can boost your resale value by several thousand dollars. Homes with these upgrades also tend to sell faster and appeal to educated buyers.
Installing a tankless water heater now puts your home ahead of the curve — and strengthens your position if you ever decide to sell.
4. Longer System Lifespan, Less Hassle
Traditional water heaters typically last 6 to 10 years. In contrast, a properly maintained tankless water heater can last 20 years or more — nearly double the lifespan of your regular, tank type heater.
Fewer replacements over time mean more value from your investment and fewer service interruptions in your home.
5. Space-Saving Design and Reduced Leak Risk
Tankless systems are compact and wall-mounted, taking up far less space than bulky tank-style models. This opens up room in your utility area, garage, or closet.
Additionally, since tankless systems don’t store large volumes of water, the risk of catastrophic leaks or flooding is significantly reduced.
6. Environmentally Friendly and Modern
Using less energy means a lower environmental impact. Tankless water heaters support eco-conscious living while also keeping your home aligned with today’s best energy practices.
If you’re looking to reduce your carbon footprint without sacrificing comfort, tankless is the way to go.
