What is an Electric Tankless Water Heater?
An
electric
tankless water heater such as those from
Stiebel and
Eemax provides heated water on demand. In other
words, only as and when you need it.
The key advantage of tankless water heaters is that they
avoid the energy losses associated with storage tanks that keep hot
water on standby. This is because tankless water heaters only use
electricity or gas when the hot water is flowing or the tap is
turned on.
With rising gas and electricity
costs, who wants to heat up a whole tank of water and have it
sitting all day...continually cooling and
requiring reheating?

Why Use An Electric Tankless Water
Heater?
 As
mentioned earlier the key advantage of tankless water heaters is
that they avoid the energy losses associated with hot water storage
tanks that keep hot water on standby.
Since
Electric Tankless Water Heaters only heat the water as it is actually
used, using a tankless water heater will typically result in saving
20 - 70% off your energy bill.
And,
of course, the other advantage is that you won't run out of hot
water any more, like you do with water storage tanks that you need
to wait while the whole tank reheats.
And
you may even be eligible for an
Energy Tax
Credit if you install a tankless water heater.
