Question:

Why do they call tankless hot water heaters eco-friendly?

Answer:

First of all, such water heaters consume less energy and thus save the world’s limited resources. Tankless water heater uses no energy when you don’t need any hot water. It sounds reasonable and logical. However, when it comes to conventional tank water heaters there are a lot of cons in this respect. Reservoir water heater keeps on heating quite a sufficient amount of water 24/7. Unfortunately, there is a loss of heat regardless of how well the tank is insulated. In the end of a day you receive costly energy bill.
