Considering a Tankless Water Heater?
A tankless water heater heats water as it is needed rather than continuously storing a large volume of hot water in a traditional tank.
For the right household and installation, a tankless system can provide a compact hot water solution while eliminating the need for a conventional storage tank.
But tankless isn't automatically the right choice for every home. Studio Plumbing can review your existing hot water setup, household needs and installation requirements so you can understand your options before deciding what makes sense for your property.
Benefits of a Tankless Water Heater
Homeowners consider tankless water heaters for several reasons. The actual benefits will depend on the selected equipment, household demand and installation.
Hot Water On Demand
Tankless systems heat water when there is a demand for hot water rather than storing heated water in a conventional tank.
Compact Design
Wall-mounted tankless equipment can take up less floor space than a traditional storage water heater.
Energy Considerations
Because a tankless system heats water when needed rather than maintaining a tank of stored hot water, energy use operates differently from a conventional storage system.
More Floor Space
Removing a large conventional tank can free up floor space in some mechanical or utility rooms.
Designed Around Demand
The correct tankless unit should be selected with the home's expected hot water demand and installation requirements in mind.
Residential Upgrade
Tankless may be worth considering when replacing an existing water heater, renovating a mechanical room or planning upgrades to your home.
How Does a Tankless Water Heater Work?
A traditional hot water tank stores heated water until you need it. A tankless water heater works differently.
When a hot water fixture is opened, the tankless system detects the demand and heats water as it moves through the unit. When the hot water demand stops, the heating cycle stops.
Because there is no large storage tank, selecting the appropriate system requires consideration of how much hot water your household may need at the same time.
Before Choosing Tankless, Consider:
Tankless vs. Traditional Hot Water Tank
There isn't one hot water system that is best for every homeowner. Your household, budget, existing mechanical setup and hot water needs should all be considered.

Tankless Water Heater Installation for Edmonton Homes
Installing a tankless water heater involves more than mounting equipment on a wall. The existing plumbing and mechanical setup should be reviewed to determine what is required for the selected system and home.
Can I Replace My Hot Water Tank With Tankless?
In some homes, switching from a conventional hot water tank to a tankless water heater may be an option. However, it isn't always a simple like-for-like replacement.
The existing installation should be reviewed because plumbing, fuel, venting, electrical or other equipment requirements can differ depending on the selected tankless system and the home.
Studio Plumbing can review the existing setup and discuss whether a traditional replacement or tankless option better fits the proposed project.

Is a Tankless Water Heater Right for Your Home?
Tankless systems can be a good fit for some homeowners, but we don't believe every home automatically needs one.
If your existing hot water tank needs replacement, that's a good opportunity to compare your options before purchasing another system.
The right choice depends on factors such as your household's hot water use, available installation space, existing mechanical setup, project budget and long-term plans for the home.
