We really love tankless water heaters, especially the Navien brand tankless gas water heater. Here are a few of the reasons we recommend customers consider a tankless water heating option:
- Takes up 80% less space than a standard 50 gallon storage tank water heater.
- You can use your existing gas line for an easy retrofit.
- Unlimited hot water supply—no tank to drain of hot water.
- Tremendous energy savings: Navien water heaters can have up to a 0.99 Energy Factor, the highest in the industry.
However, no water heater—no matter how well manufactured—is invincible. Let’s look at some of the problems you may run into at some point with your tankless water heater.
