How You Can Save Money with a Tankless Water Heater

Your water heater is a vital part to your homes appliances. Your water heater is responsible for providing the whole home with clean, hot water. If you are looking to save money, lower energy bills, and have an endless supply of hot water, then a tankless water heater may be the right investment for you. Tankless water heaters are an innovative and advanced way to heat water, and come with a lot of perks. This being said, they tend to be expensive to both buy and properly install. However, they can ultimately save you money in the long run. For example, gas-fired tankless water heaters can save you about $108 from your energy costs every year, whereas an electric tankless heater can save you around $44/year.

How Much Does a Tankless Water Heater Cost?

Going tankless is an investment: the starting price of a tankless water heater is much more expensive than a regular water tank heaters. On average, electric tankless heaters cost about $1,000 and gas tankless heaters cost about $3,000 (including installation). This is about three times higher than regular storage water heaters. Another factor to consider if you home is ready for a tankless water heater. Installing one of these requires a technician, and may even require you to upgrade your home’s electrical system. Re-wiring a home for this type of job can cost up to $5,000, and that’s not factoring in the installation costs and the water heater itself.
