Tankless Water Heater Advantages
While tankless water heaters cost more than old-fashioned tanks, they offer a huge number of advantages vs. disadvantages of installing a tankless unit. Let’s compare them.

| Water Supply | On demand, endless supply. |
Once the tank is used up, you get cold water. |
| Space Usage | Wall mounted units are out of the way. |
Even the smallest tanks require at least 9 square feet of floor space, including clearance for servicing and safety. |
| Lifespan | Typically 20 – 25 years |
Typically 12 – 15 years |
| Basement Flooding Danger | Almost none – tankless models shut off the water supply if there’s a problem. |

| Cost | Higher, although dropping all the time. New models can make use of the existing ½” gas lines, reducing installation cost. |
