Tankless Hot Water Heaters in Courtenay

At Vent-Air Heating & Refrigeration, we have the skills and expertise to install, repair, and service tankless hot water heaters in Courtenay.

Advantages of Tankless Water Heaters

Tradional hot water tanks use energy when you are not using water.  The heat is being stored in the tank at a certain temperature.  Because of this energy is wasted.  An on-demand- tankless hot water heater does not include a tank and heats water only when you need it and a faucet is open. They can also offer energy savings ability by reducing the thermal losses to the environment. Other benefits of tankless water heaters are:

• Save valuable space
• Endless hot water
• Limited upkeep costs
• Zero energy consumption when not in use.
• Reliability for the long haul (in excess of 20 years) as compared to traditional water heater systems (10 to 15 years)
• Minimal energy loss
• No tank bacteria buildup
• Reduction of water heaters in landfills

Their disadvantages include:

• A limited volume of hot water that is available at one same time from several faucets
• Possible variations in water temperature, if several faucets are on at the same time
• Possible several-second delay between the moment at which the faucet is turned on and the moment at which the water turns hot
• Possibility of the water not being very hot when the flow is reduced
